摘要:
Creation of surgical slush having desirable mechanical properties by chilling a closed slush container with liquid saline and an air gap. The closed slush container having interior surfaces that are smooth and hydrophobic to resist adherence of ice crystals. Moving the closed slush container so the contents move in a complex set of motions rather than constant rotation around a longitudinal centerline of the slush container as the liquid saline is converted into surgical slush with a mixture of liquid saline and ice crystals. At least some of the interior surfaces of the closed slush container move into and out of an air gap to help shed any ice crystals forming on the interior surfaces. An optional method for delivering surgical slush to the sterile field is included.
