That was always a risk with The Blanket. Because it was a malfunctioning alien artifact there was a chance whenever it was low on charge that it would "eat" (entirely consume) whoever was put inside it. Whenever Po noticed signs that The Blanket was sluggish and probably low on charge he would put injured prisoners in it. If it healed them he would re-injure them and put them back in until it ate them, becoming recharged in the process.
There were many occasions when Po's senior subordinates (the few that were aware of The Blanket and its nature) could have chosen not to use it to heal Po. Strangely they never did.
