PRODUCT INFORMATION

North American Rescue · QUANTUM Consumable

Thermal Transfusion Set — BLOOD (TTS-B)

The blood-rated consumable tubing set for North American Rescue's QUANTUM warming system. It is the IV administration line and the warming element in one 80 in. Set — the heating element is double-extruded between the inner and outer tubing walls, outside the fluid path, so blood never touches a heated surface. Thermistors along the line report to the QUANTUM Controller. Two sets per pack.

Item 35-0005Pack of 280 in. setBlood-rated

A second set in the fluid path is a second connection to prime, a second thing to purge and a second place to leak. Collapsing the warmer and the administration line into one is a logistics decision before it is a clinical one.

What's Included

Two sterile sets per pack. Single variant — there is no size or quantity option.

VIEW ▾What's Included — Two sets, one pack

2× Thermal Transfusion Set — BLOOD (TTS-B), 80 in., combined IV administration set and warming element; heating element double-extruded between the inner and outer tubing walls, outside the fluid path; thermistors distributed along the line · Item 35-0005, pack of 2
Each set is sterile, ethylene-oxide sterilized and single use — discard after each patient infusion event. Total pack weight 2.7 oz.

Every performance figure above is reproduced as North American Rescue publishes it, and the fluid-compatibility line is the manufacturer's clearance statement — not an independent verification and not a substitute for reading the instructions for use packed with the set. The one point worth repeating rather than burying: The TTS-B and the Thermal Infusion Set (TIS, 35-0004) are different consumables, and the manufacturer states plainly that the TIS is not for blood. Confirm the item number on the pouch before priming. Prehospital transfusion practice — product selection, warming targets, monitoring and documentation — comes from your medical director and your transfusion protocol, not from this page.

▾Who Carries It

Units and services already operating a QUANTUM warming system — this is the blood-rated consumable that keeps it usable, and it depletes one pack per two transfusion events. Military and special-operations medical elements running prehospital whole blood or freeze-dried plasma forward. Critical-care transport, flight and retrieval crews transfusing in the back of a moving platform. Prolonged field care teams where a cold unit and a cold casualty compound each other.

Scope of practice. Transfusion is a credentialed clinical act performed under a transfusion protocol and medical-director authorization, with the product handling, identity checks, monitoring and documentation that go with it. This listing describes a consumable tubing set. It is not training, not a transfusion protocol, and not a procedural reference. Each set is single use and must be discarded after one patient event.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What blood products can be used with the Thermal Transfusion Set–Blood (TTS-B)?

The TTS-B (NAR 35-0005) is cleared for use with whole blood, packed red blood cells, freeze-dried plasma (FDP) reconstituted product, colloids, and isotonic IV solutions. It is the only QUANTUM tubing set approved for blood warming applications. The Thermal Infusion Set (TIS, 35-0004) is for IV solutions only and should not be used with blood or blood products.

Does the TTS-B replace a standard blood transfusion set?

Yes. Unlike other blood warmers that require a conventional transfusion set in addition to the warming device's proprietary tubing, the TTS-B functions as the complete IV administration set. It includes the drip chamber (with integrated blood filter), heating element, and patient delivery line in one set. No additional standard transfusion set is required, reducing kit weight and simplifying setup under stress.

How does the TTS-B heat blood without contaminating the fluid path?

The TTS-B uses a double-extrusion manufacturing process that places a conductive heating element between the tubing's inner and outer layers — completely outside the fluid path. The inner tubing layer transfers heat from the element to the blood or fluid flowing through it, while the outer layer acts as insulation. This architecture ensures the heating element never contacts the fluid, preventing contamination and eliminating concerns about thermal damage from localized heating hotspots.

How many TTS-B sets are needed per transfusion event?

One TTS-B set is required per blood transfusion event. Each set is single-use. Item 35-0005 is sold in packs of 2, providing sets for two transfusion events per pack. Organizations planning multiple transfusion events (e.g., walking blood bank operations or PFC missions with multiple casualties) should stock sufficient TTS-B supply based on their operational planning assumptions.

Can the TTS-B be used without the QUANTUM system?

No. The TTS-B is exclusively compatible with the QUANTUM Blood & Fluid Warming System (Controller 35-0003 + Battery 35-0002). The heating element in the tubing wall requires the electrical power and temperature modulation delivered by the QUANTUM Controller. Without the Controller and Battery connected, the TTS-B functions as a standard IV tubing set without any warming capability.

Is the TTS-B compatible with all blood products?

The TTS-B (NAR 35-0005) is cleared for whole blood, packed red blood cells, freeze-dried plasma (FDP) reconstituted product, colloids, and isotonic IV solutions. Do not use the Thermal Infusion Set (TIS, 35-0004) for blood — the TIS is IV fluids only.

What training is required to use the QUANTUM system with the TTS-B?

The TTS-B primes and handles identically to a standard blood transfusion set. QUANTUM system training is typically covered in Combat Casualty Care or Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) courses that address prehospital transfusion. Consult your unit or agency medical director for protocol specifics.

Is the TTS-B compatible with the original QUANTUM system and the updated controller?

Yes. The TTS-B (35-0005) is the designated consumable for the QUANTUM Blood & Fluid Warming System and works with all current QUANTUM controller and battery versions. Verify compatibility markings on the packaging when newer system revisions are released.

What is the NSN or procurement path for the TTS-B?

The TTS-B is a North American Rescue consumable (Item 35-0005, pack of 2). Government and institutional procurement can be arranged through authorized NAR distribution channels. Contact MED-TAC International for DLA/GSA ordering assistance.

Can the TTS-B be reused between patients?

No. The TTS-B is a single-use, sterile disposable set supplied via ethylene oxide sterilization. It must be discarded after each patient infusion event. Each pack includes two sets — one per transfusion event, or primary plus backup.
