  Abstract

In this study, a therapeutic hypothermia system that controls the body temperature of patients is realized. The system is able to induce and maintain hypothermia for required body parts, and then rewarm them within a prescribed temperature range and time. The system consists of fluid chiller, fluid heater, cold water tank, circulation tank, supply tank, and pads that are wrapped around the abdomen and thighs. It is found that the system controls the temperature of the circulation water tank in the range of 4 to 42℃ within 40 and 1 hour, respectively. The accuracy of controlled temperature is within ±0.1% and the noise level is below 60dB as indicated in the standard regulation.
