GE Panda Warmer - Panda iRes Features

The GE Panda iRes is one of the best infant warmers, helping to keep the babies' body warm through temperature regulation. The innovative recessed heater in the Panda Warmer lets you interact with the patient, while still allowing their body to maintain heat separate from you.

With hands-free alarm silencing the Panda Warmer has easy-to-read control panels, optional SpO2 and more, the GE Panda iRes provides caregivers and parents peace of mind. The GE Panda Warmer comes standard with GE’s new Hourglass Heat Profile, giving the baby uniform, gentle heat while keeping caregivers and parents cool and comfortable.

The radiant heat comes from an infrared heat source that is focused onto the bed to warm the baby. The clinician is able to select heater power (manual mode) or skin temperature (baby mode) controls. Depending on the control method selected, the heater is either regulated at the operator-selected power level, or the heater output is modulated to maintain the patient's temperature at the selected value. The Panda is intended for use in a labor and delivery unit. They include the same general observation lights at the Giraffe Warmer but the procedure light is optional.

This infant warming system features a small heater reflector and a compound elliptical shape. This unique combination was designed for optimal headspace over the bed surface. By leaving the area over the bed clear, the caregiver can observe and treat the patient unobstructed. Additionally, this also allows the head of an X-ray machine to be placed over the patient without moving the heater head or patient. The Panda iRes Warmer features optional integrated SpO2 and resuscitation. The SpO2 option allows the clinician to monitor the patient's blood oxygen level, while the optional resuscitation allows for administering forced breathing if required.
