| The Ultimate Reusable Hot Pack is designed to be applied to areas of optimal heat transfer providing conductive warmth to the thoracic region.
These area's are:
If the patient is well insulated, the Hot Pack will provide heat for a minimum of 1½ hours per charge. Without additional insulation, duration will diminish depending on ambient
conditions. |

 Adding Water Water is recommended for optimal results, but the chemical pack will activate with any liquid. |
Upon emptying the chemical pack into the bladder and adding the water, the hot pack starts to generate heat instantly! The hot pack will attain a temperature of 160° Fahrenheit. For instant re-application at maximum temperature, empty the bladder and refill it with a chemical pack and water. |
| If the hot pack should become soiled, the fleece cover can be removed and washed and the bladder can be cleaned using any Organic Quat detergent disinfectant. | |

| Frank Teasley of Jackson, Wyoming was in the Iditarod sled dog race in 1999. Frank said he was crossing the burn area (93 miles) and the temperature was 52 degrees below zero with a wind. Frank was unwilling to stop for fear he would lose his team to freezing. He activated a Ultimate Hot Pack and using a string hung the hot pack around his neck. With the use of the hot pack he was able to continue on to the next check point and was very pleased over the results he received from the hot pack. He said later that he used the hot pack several times to warm up when he was sleeping on the trail. |

| Leonard Stensaas EMT in Lander, Wyoming. On April 22, 1999 on my way to the Jackson, Wyoming Trauma conference I was 6 or 7 miles above the Brooks Lake area on Togwotee Pass and came upon a 1050 involving a snow plow and passenger car. There were two patients, one patient with multiple severe injuries. The temperature was around 20° F with wind and snow with a wind chill factor of 5° F. After checking the patients and checking their vitals I had a Deputy Sheriff activate a hot pack and placed it on one of the patients who was very hypothermic and in shock. The Dubois, Wyoming ambulances arrived and used the hot pack again enroute to Lander. Both patients survived and are recovering from their injuries. The ER doctor in Lander, Wyoming said there were several factors that saved the one patient, and one of the factors was the quick application of The Ultimate Reusable Hot Pack. |
