PATIENT COOLING SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC A61F7/10 A61G7/57 A47C27/10 A47C21/04 A61G10/00 

FIELD: medical equipment.

SUBSTANCE: patient cooling device up to temperature lower than normal body temperature contains air cover enclosing patient body, furnished with inlet and outlet ports connected to air cooling system, while air cooling system recirculates air through air cover for energy conservation, and at least one aperture within air cover for detachable pipelines. Aperture contains flexible pipeline-compression collar turned so that it is radially compressed around pipeline. The second version provides air recirculation through coaxial hose. Device can also be supplied with set of blow sections and boxes jointly forming body support surface. And each blow section and box is separately blowable, with high pressure source in hydrodynamic communication with blow sections and boxes. High pressure source is activated to provide alternate pressure relief for patient body. Another version of device is designed in such a way that blow sections and boxes are pumped with either low-pressured cold air providing patient body cooling of low maintenance, or air of higher pressure however providing lower cooling effect.

EFFECT: invention application enables to extend range of devices for patient cooling.
