Patent

CA 2739614

Methods and apparatus for the prevention and treatment of shivering encountered during therapeutic temperature regulation are disclosed that utilize an active system of counterwarming such that the timing and intensity of warmth provided to selected body areas is regulated dynamically in response to such factors as the extent of cooling applied to the core, the degree of shivering encountered, and patient temperature. Additionally, methods and apparatus are disclosed for the measurement and quantification of shivering for use in this and other applications.

On décrit des procédés et appareils destinés à prévenir et à traiter les frissons rencontrés au cours d'une régulation thérapeutique de température, en faisant appel à un système actif de contre-réchauffement tel que la chronologie et l'intensité de la chaleur communiquée à des zones choisies du corps soient régulées dynamiquement en réponse à des facteurs tels que l'ampleur du refroidissement appliqué au noyau, le degré de frissons rencontré et la température du patient. On décrit en outre des procédés et appareils destinés à la mesure et à la quantification des frissons en vue d'une utilisation entre autres dans cette application.
