CHAPTER 2: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CritiCool
®
MINI is a thermal regulating system, indicated for monitoring
and controlling patient temperature.
CritiCool
®
MINI is based on the CritiCool
®
system and offers additional
benefits with its reduced footprint and mobility.
The CritiCool
®
MINI system controls Targeted Temperature Management
(TTM) in an effective and precise manner. The desired temperature is
preset by the physician with a possible range of target temperatures from
Hypothermia to Normothermia.
The system is composed of two elements, the CritiCool
®
MINI device, and
the wrap. The CritiCool
®
MINI device functions as a control unit and a
cooling/heating pump, which circulates water. The control unit monitors
the patient’s core temperature through specific probes, and using its on-
board body temperature control algorithm, delivers water to reach the
desired set point temperature. The cooling/heating pump brings the water
to the required temperature and the pump circulates it through the
specially designed CureWrap™.
The CureWrap™ is a flexible 3D single piece design through which the
water circulates. It is designed to be in close contact with a large area of
the body, thus allowing optimization of energy transfer.
NOTE:
The Belmont Medical Technologies wrap is proprietary to
Belmont Medical Technologies and this is the only wrap
authorized to be used with this Thermoregulation Device.
