Abstract:
:Although some features are excellent, the Gorman-Rupp "dry heat' warmer has serious weaknesses which render part of the electrical circuit susceptible to water. Its heating ability is quite good but not completely adequate at flows of 150 ml/min. It creates a moderate resistance to blood flow and flow by gravity would not be expected to exceed about 50 ml/min.
