Sample Warming Cabinet Temperature Checklist

Lakeland (Fla.) Surgical & Diagnostic Center uses a checklist to ensure blankets and fluids in its warming cabinet maintain acceptable temperatures.

If these items in the cabinet exceed the acceptable temperature levels the ASC has indicated, staff members are instructed to adjust the temperature and recheck it in one hour.

 

The original temperature and the readjusted temperatures are noted daily on the checklist, which provides space for a month’s worth of data.
