Warm blankets can be used to restore body temperature or even comfort a patient. How warm you keep your warming cabinet is dependent on whether you are using it for fluids or blankets and should be established by each facility individually. The AORN recommends labeling and dating all fluids as well as posting the appropriate temperature on the side of the cabinet to avoid any confusion. They also recommend regularly checking the temperature to ensure it is at the desired level and notating it on a log.
