A thermal blanket including an inflatable covering having a plurality of apertures for delivering a thermally-controlled medium to a patient sitting in a chair. The inflatable covering includes an upper sheet and a base sheet connected at a periphery. The periphery includes a shoulder-facing head section proximate to the head of the patient, a foot section opposite thereto, a first side section extending from the head section to the foot section, and a second side section opposite thereto. A non-inflatable shoulder drape is formed in the head section. The shoulder drape includes an aperture for accommodating the head of the sitting patient so that the thermal blanket is affixed to the sitting patient. An uninflatable first side drape is formed in the first side section and an uninflatable second side drape is formed in the second side section. An uninflatable foot drape may also be formed in the foot section of the inflatable covering.
