Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2008070853
Kind Code:
A8
Abstract:
Apparatus for altering the body temperature of a patient and administering decompression to a patient's torso includes an upper member for overlying the patient's torso. The upper member has at least one inlet for directing heat transfer liquid into direct liquid contact with the patient's torso to promote heat transfer between the patient's torso and the heat transfer liquid. A decompression device is adapted for securement to the upper member for use in at least decompressing the patient's torso with the upper member interposed between the decompression device and the patient's torso. The upper member is configured to facilitate decompression of the patient's torso upon operation of the decompression device to apply a decompressive pressure to the upper member.
