Circulating-fluid whole-body heating/cooling system control unit

Definition

A mains electricity (AC-powered) device intended to be used as part of a circulating-fluid whole-body heating/cooling system to control/regulate the temperature and flow of fluid through a connected patient-applied pad (not included), for heating and alternatively cooling a patient’s whole-body (i.e., elevate or lower core body temperature). The device includes a heater and refrigeration unit, a pump, and typically a water reservoir; it may also be intended for patient temperature monitoring and typically includes alarms for cases of water temperatures beyond pre-set limits. It is intended to be used by a healthcare professional in a clinical setting (e.g., to achieve normothermia).
