The company, traditionally known for automotive climate-control technologies, developed ThermAffyx to replace the fragmented, multi-product approach surgical teams currently rely on to prevent patient movement and heat loss during complex procedures. By integrating underbody warming directly into an anti-slip securement pad, the system aims to streamline the setup process for clinical staff operating in high-precision environments.

Gentherm Secures FDA Clearance for Integrated Surgical Safety System
Robotic-assisted surgeries often require patients to be positioned in the steep Trendelenburg tilt, a posture that challenges both thermal stability and physical security. Gentherm has now received FDA clearance for its ThermAffyx system, a device designed to consolidate patient warming and anti-slip stabilization into one unified medical platform.
Gentherm plans to initiate product trials at select healthcare facilities this August. The company anticipates the device will begin contributing to its revenue streams by the third quarter, marking a strategic expansion of its thermal-management expertise into the specialized field of robotic surgery.
