Many studies have been done on the effects of cooling the body
shortly after cardiac arrest or stroke establishing how long-term
cooling significantly improves outcomes. Traditionally was
accomplished with ice packs, block ice, and invasive procedures
with saline and/or a cooler which uses Gluteraldehyde. The EMS
Innovations ICE unit provides the user con-trolled cooling by
utilization of a thermostat. Actual patient temperature monitoring
should be used in conjunction with the ICE Unit. The temperature of
the cooling fluid (water) can be set to an exact parameter. An LCD
panel on the top of the unit provides feedback of temperature
regulation and an indication of the flow of the water through the
system. Elimination of the use of Gluteraldehyde ensures that the
ICE system is environmentally safe and less expensive to operate.
The ICE System is a non-invasive approach to rapid patient cooling,
eliminating needles and cooled saline. The ICE System is
appropriate for use in multiple environments allowing First
responders, Hospital Personnel and Medical Examiners to utilize one
device for many applications. Save time and money with one device
that can help prevent and treat injury and illness as well as
preserve human remains! Dimension
