Abstract

The invention relates to a device for defrosting and/or heating up medical products (1), especially deep-frozen blood products or injection or infusion solutions for later transfusion, retransfusion or injection. The inventive device comprises a heating module (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) on which a container containing the deep-frozen product (1) can be placed. A pre-heated adaptive pad (3) is placed on the container (1) and emits the heat contained therein during the heating process. The desired final temperature of the product (1) to be heated is controlled by way of a temperature sensor (4, 5) and a control unit and is displayed once it is reached.
