Xodus Medical Receives FDA 510(K) Clearance, Launches the Hot Pink Pad®, a Breakthrough in Surgical Patient Temperature Management and Positioning

PITTSBURGH, April 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Xodus Medical today announced the launch of the Hot Pink Pad®, a next-generation patient temperature management and positioning system designed to improve surgical outcomes, enhance patient safety, and streamline operating room workflows.

The Hot Pink Pad addresses two of the most critical perioperative risks—inadvertent perioperative hypothermia (IPH) and hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs)—by combining unique underbody warming technology with clinically-proven Pink Pad patient positioning in a single, integrated solution.

Powered by advanced carbon-based conductive warming technology, the patented system delivers precise, evenly distributed warmth directly beneath the patient without circulating air or disrupting the sterile field. Its intelligent normothermia software continuously monitors and adjusts warming output to help maintain patients’ target temperature ranges—improving consistency without increasing staff workload.
