The patient warming system market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.2 billion in 2025 to $2.4 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to limited availability of advanced warming devices, reliance on traditional electric blankets, growing surgical procedures, increasing awareness of perioperative hypothermia, adoption of basic warming technologies.
The patient warming system market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.37 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to innovation in infrared and water circulation technologies, expansion of ambulatory surgical centers and specialty clinics, rising geriatric and home care patient population, increasing investment in patient safety solutions, integration with smart hospital systems. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of patient warming systems in hospitals and ascs, technological advancements in forced-air and conductive warming devices, increasing focus on reducing perioperative hypothermia, growth in home care and rehabilitation applications, enhanced safety standards and regulatory compliance in patient warming devices.
The increasing number of surgical procedures is expected to drive the growth of the patient warming system market in the coming years. Surgical procedures involve medical operations that cut, manipulate, or repair tissues to diagnose or treat health conditions. The rise in surgical procedures is largely due to an aging population, as older adults are more susceptible to chronic conditions that often require surgical intervention. Patient warming systems support surgical procedures by maintaining optimal body temperature, reducing the risk of perioperative hypothermia and associated complications. They improve surgical outcomes by enhancing patient safety, accelerating recovery, and increasing overall procedural efficiency. For instance, in June 2025, ISRG/Intuitive Surgical, a US-based public company, reported that approximately 2,683,000 surgical procedures were performed using da Vinci surgical systems in 2024, compared to roughly 2,286,000 procedures in 2023 and 1,875,000 in 2022. Therefore, the growing number of surgical procedures is fueling the growth of the patient warming system market.
Leading companies in the patient warming system market are concentrating on the development of technologically advanced products such as radiant patient warming systems to enhance perioperative care, boost temperature regulation efficiency, and lower the risk of hypothermia during surgeries. A radiant patient warming system is a non-contact thermal device that utilizes infrared radiation to provide controlled heat to the surface of a patient’s body. In April 2023, Augustine Surgical Inc., a U.S.-based medical device firm, partnered with Baxter International Inc., a U.S.-based healthcare company, to introduce an air-free patient warming system. This radiant system is as effective as traditional forced-air systems in maintaining patient temperature but provides additional advantages including a reduced risk of airborne contamination, quieter operation, and increased comfort for surgical staff. Furthermore, these systems preserve laminar airflow, offering a safer and more cost-effective solution for infection control in operating rooms.
In April 2024, Haemonetics, a U.S.-based provider of medical technology solutions for blood management, surgical suites, and hospital critical care, acquired Attune Medical for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Haemonetics sought to strengthen its patient temperature-management capabilities and expand its surgical and critical care offerings worldwide. Attune Medical is a U.S.-based company specializing in patient temperature management devices.
Major companies operating in the patient warming system market are 3M Company, Medtronic plc, Philips Healthcare, Stryker Corporation, GE Healthcare, ZOLL Medical Corporation, Gentherm Inc, LivaNova plc, Inspiration Healthcare Group plc, Belmont Medical Technologies, NovaMed Inc, Universal Medical Instruments, The Surgical Company, Alfamedic, Ananta Medisystems, Emit Corporation, Infinium Medical, Paragon Medical Supply Inc, Smiths Medical, Drager Medical AG, Geratherm Medical AG, Barkey GmbH And Co KG.

A patient warming system is a medical device used to maintain or elevate a patient’s body temperature during or after surgical procedures or in cases of hypothermia. These systems commonly utilize techniques such as forced-air warming, electric blankets, or fluid-warming systems. Their primary function is to prevent perioperative hypothermia, enhance patient recovery, and lower the likelihood of complications like surgical site infections or cardiovascular problems.
The primary product categories within patient warming systems include forced-air warming systems, conductive warming devices, electric blankets, warm water blankets, and resistive heating systems. Forced-air warming systems work by distributing heated air through a disposable blanket placed over the patient. The system technologies include resistive heating, convection heating, conductive heating, water circulation, and infrared heating. These are utilized across various settings such as hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers (ASCs), specialty clinics, home care environments, and rehabilitation facilities.
The patient warming system market consists of revenues earned by entities by providing services such as preoperative and postoperative temperature management, intraoperative warming solutions, equipment installation and maintenance, device calibration, and clinical training and support for healthcare staff. The market value includes the value of related goods sold by the service provider or included within the service offering. The patient warming system market also includes sales of warming gowns, infant warming pads and swaddles, fluid and blood warming systems, and radiant warmers. Values in this market are ‘factory gate’ values, that is the value of goods sold by the manufacturers or creators of the goods, whether to other entities (including downstream manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors and retailers) or directly to end customers. The value of goods in this market includes related services sold by the creators of the goods.
The market value is defined as the revenues that enterprises gain from the sale of goods and/or services within the specified market and geography through sales, grants, or donations in terms of the currency (in USD unless otherwise specified).
The revenues for a specified geography are consumption values that are revenues generated by organizations in the specified geography within the market, irrespective of where they are produced. It does not include revenues from resales along the supply chain, either further along the supply chain or as part of other products.
