摘要：
A heat transfer catheter system includes a heat transfer catheter insertable into a patient, a disposable heat exchange unit having a fluid pathway therewithin and incorporating an integral pump head adapted to move fluid through the fluid pathway. The system also includes conduits coupled to the heat transfer catheter and heat exchange unit that enable circulation of a heat exchange medium therebetween upon operation of the pump head. The system also includes a diverter unit that periodically redirects the fluid pathway, bypassing the heat transfer catheter, and a reusable master control unit having a heater/cooler and a pump driver. The disposable heat exchange unit is adapted to couple to the master control unit such that the pump driver engages the integral pump head and so that the fluid pathway is in thermal communication with the heater/cooler.
