Patient Therapy Selection

Use the Patient Therapy Selection screen to initiate a New Patient,
Continue a Current Patient, or access the Advanced Setup screen.
New Patient - Normothermia
Select Normothermia if the therapy goal is to maintain a patient
temperature at a pre-defined target temperature for an indefinite period
of time. Press the Normothermia button to display the Normothermia
therapy screen.
New Patient - Hypothermia
Select Hypothermia to reduce and maintain a patient temperature at a set
target temperature for a defined period of time, then slowly re-warm the
patient at a controlled re-warming rate. Press the Hypothermia button to
display the Hypothermia therapy screen.
Additional Protocol Option
Two additional protocols (Hypothermia or Normothermia) may be visible
on the Patient Therapy Selection screen.
Current Patient
The Continue Current Patient button and the date and time that the
current therapy was paused will display on the Patient Therapy Selection
screen if a patient therapy was paused within the past 6 hours.
Press the Continue Current Patient button to resume a paused
patient therapy.
Initiate Normothermia (Control Patient & Rewarm Patient)
Normothermia therapy is initiated and managed, and patient temperature
is automatically controlled to a set target temperature from the Control
Patient window in the Normothermia therapy screen. The Control Patient
window displays the patient target temperature and the duration since the
initiation of normothermia therapy.
To initiate Normothermia therapy:
1) From the Patient Therapy Selection screen, press the Normothermia
button to display the Normothermia therapy screen.
2) The default patient target temperature will display in the Control
Patient window.
3) To modify the patient target temperature, press the Adjust button to
display the Control Patient-Adjust window.
4) Control Patient to: Use the Up and Down arrows to set the desired
patient target temperature to control the patient.
5) Rewarm at a Rate of: Use the Up and Down arrows on the right of the
screen to set the rewarming rate.
6) Press the Save button to save the new settings and close the Control
Patient-Adjust window
7) Press Start, in the Control Patient window to initiate therapy. You will
hear a tone and then a voice stating "Therapy Started". Additionally, the
Control Patient window and the A
System icon will blink, indicating that therapy is in progress.

Initiate Hypothermia (Cool Patient and Rewarm Patient)

Hypothermia therapy is initiated and managed, and patient temperature is
automatically controlled to a set target temperature from the Cool Patient
and Rewarm Patient windows in the Hypothermia therapy screen.
The Cool Patient window displays the cooling phase patient target
temperature and the length of time remaining in the cooling phase of the
Hypothermia therapy.
The Rewarm Patient window displays the rewarming phase patient target
temperature and the length of time remaining in the rewarming phase of the
Hypothermia therapy.
To initiate hypothermia therapy:
From the Patient Therapy Selection screen, press the Hypothermia
button to display the Hypothermia therapy screen.
1. Cool Patient Settings
• The default patient target temperature and duration will display in the
Cool Patient window.
• To modify the patient target temperature and duration, press the Adjust
button to display the Cool Patient-Adjust window.

• Cool Patient To: Use the Up and Down arrows on the left side to set
the desired patient target temperature to cool the patient
• Cool Patient For: Use the Up and Down arrows on the right side to
set the cooling duration to cool the patient before rewarming begins.
• Press the Save button to save the new settings and close the Cool
Patient-Adjust window
2. Rewarm Patient Settings
• The default patient target temperature and duration will display in the
Rewarm Patient window.
• To change the rewarming phase patient target temperature and
rewarming rate, press the Adjust button in the Rewarm Patient window
to display the Rewarm Patient-Adjust screen. Use the Up and Down
arrows on the left side to set the desired final patient target temperature.
• Rewarm Patient To: Use the Up and Down arrows on the right side to
set the desired final patient target temperature.
• Rewarm at a Rate of: Use the Up and Down arrows in the center of the
screen to set the rewarming rate.
• Rewarm Patient From: When cooling a patient, adjustment of the
Rewarm Patient From setting on the left side of the screen is disabled
and defaults to the Cool Patient target temperature.
• When rewarming a patient, the Rewarm Patient From adjustment is
enabled and the value can be modified. The Rewarm Patient From
setting is the temperature to which the system is currently controlling
the patient. The Rewarm Patient From temperature will automatically
increase as the rewarming process continues. This feature allows the
rewarming procedure to be optimized by allowing complete control of
the rewarming ramp.
• Using the Rewarm Patient From temperature, the Rewarm Patient To
temperature and the rewarming rate settings, the system will calculate
and display the rewarming duration and the date/time at which the
patient will reach the final rewarming target temperature.
• Press the Save button to save the new settings and close the Rewarm
Patient-Adjust window.
3. Initiate Patient Cooling
• Press Start, in the Cool Patient window to initiate therapy. You will hear
a tone and then a voice stating "Therapy Started". Additionally, the Cool
Patient window and the A
rctic
icon will blink, indicating that therapy is in progress.
4. Initiate Patient Rewarming
• Upon completion of the cooling phase, there are two options for initiation
of patient rewarming, either Automatically or Manually, depending on the
Rewarming Begins setting in Hypothermia Settings.
• If Rewarming Begins is set to Automatically, the rewarming process
starts automatically when the Cool Patient therapy is complete and the
duration reaches zero.
• If Rewarming Begins is set to Manually, the rewarming process starts
when the Start button is pressed in the Rewarm Patient window. The
cooling process will continue until the Rewarm Patient Start button
is pressed. An Alert will occur when the Cool Patient duration
reaches zero. When the Rewarm Patient duration timer reaches zero,
the system will continue to control the patient to the target temperature
until the Stop button is pressed. Once in Normothermia, the timer will
reset and begin tracking the duration of Normothermia therapy.

End Therapy

• From the Normothermia therapy or Hypothermia therapy screen,
press the Stop button to terminate water circulation to the pads.
• Press the Empty Pads button, and follow the instructions to purge
the pads of water.
• Disconnect the pads from the Fluid Delivery Line.
• Slowly and carefully remove pads from the patient skin.
• Discard the used pads in accordance with hospital procedures for
medical waste.
• Press the power switch Off.
If power is lost while the power switch is in the On position, an audible alert
will be issued until it is switched Off. This alerts the user that the treatment
may have been accidentally stopped.
