The invention relates to a cover (2) for cooling at least parts of the bodies of patients (1), in particular cardiac arrest patients, comprising at least one cooling element (3) that contains cooling fluid (8) and can be placed on the body or body part, said cooling element (3) being cooled to below freezing before use. The invention also relates to a cooling device for cooling at least parts of the bodies of patients (1), comprising a cooling cover (2) of this type and a cooling device (14). The aim of the invention is to provide a cooling cover (2), which permits a particularly rapid cooling of the patient (1), without the risk of contact burns to the patient (1). To achieve this, a material (7) that has a good thermal conductivity in comparison with the cooling fluid (8), for example metal wool consisting of aluminium, copper or steel, or dross consisting of aluminium or graphite, is contained in the cooling element and absorbs the cooling fluid (8), in particular water.
L'invention concerne un revêtement (2) pour refroidir au moins des parties du corps d'un patient (1), notamment un patient souffrant d'un arrêt cardiaque, au moyen d'au moins un élément de refroidissement (3) contenant un liquide de refroidissement (8) placé sur le corps ou la partie du corps du patient, cet élément de refroidissement (3) étant, avant son utilisation, refroidi en dessous du point de congélation. L'invention concerne aussi un dispositif de refroidissement pour refroidir au moins des parties du corps d'un patient (1) au moyen d'un revêtement de refroidissement (2) de ce type et d'un appareil de refroidissement (14). L'invention vise à créer un revêtement de refroidissement (2) qui permet un refroidissement particulièrement rapide du patient (1) sans risque de brûlure de la surface de la peau du patient (1). A cet effet, l'élément de refroidissement (3) contient une matière thermiquement bonne conductrice relativement au liquide de refroidissement (8), par exemple, de la laine métallique en aluminium, en cuivre ou en acier, de la mousse métallique en aluminium ou en graphite, pour recevoir le liquide refroidissement (8), notamment l'eau.
