摘要:
A therapeutic craniocervical hypothermia device which provides controlled cooling (heating) through a helmet and collar. The helmet and collar contain a plurality of distributed thermoelectric cooling devices (TECs) distributed on a helmet structure and a liquid coolant system for exchanging heat external to the helmet and collar to keep the TECs operating efficiently. A control circuit drives the TECs in response to measurements from a plurality of temperature sensors held adjacent the patient wearing the helmet and collar. In at least one embodiment, the TECs are grouped within interconnected flexible modules which each contain internal cooling passageways adjacent the TECs.
