Abstract: A surgical operating room table pad that functions in multiple capacities such as a dielectric capacitor for grounding the electro-surgical current from cautery device and heating the patient contact surface for the maintenance of patient normal-thermia. The “capacitor/dielectric” is designed to allow the electrosurgical current introduced to the patient to return back to the electrosurgical generator for patient and surgical staff safety. The temperature of the patient's body is constantly measured by a series of RTD Thermister sensors and a resistive device is utilized for thermal input.

Abstract: A heating pad system useable in one embodiment for warming a person on a support structure. In this embodiment, the heating pad system comprises an upper foam pad, a lower foam pad, and a thermal-electric heating element sandwiched between the upper and lower foam pads. A form-fitting waterproof cover encloses at least a portion of the upper and lower foam pads and the thermal-electric heating element. In one aspect of this embodiment, the heating pad system includes a power unit for providing electrical power to the thermal-electric heating element, the power unit including a control panel having at least one temperature selector, the temperature selector for selecting at least one heating pad temperature.
