The Medivance 317-00 Arctic Sun Temperature Management System with Universal ArcticGel is an advanced, non-invasive system designed to precisely manage a patient's core body temperature.
The Medivance 317-00 Arctic Sun Temperature Management System with Universal ArcticGel is an advanced, non-invasive system designed to precisely manage a patient's core body temperature. Widely used in critical care settings such as ICUs and emergency departments, this system provides targeted temperature control, which is crucial in a variety of medical scenarios, including therapeutic hypothermia, fever management, and temperature regulation following cardiac arrest, stroke, or traumatic brain injury.
The Arctic Sun system is designed to deliver rapid and controlled cooling or warming while minimizing the risk of complications. The Universal ArcticGel pads ensure efficient heat exchange and patient comfort during the temperature management process, making this system highly reliable and user-friendly for healthcare professionals.
Non-Invasive Temperature Management: The Arctic Sun system offers a non-invasive method to regulate core body temperature, eliminating the need for invasive catheters or temperature probes. Using adhesive ArcticGel pads, the system provides direct contact with the skin, allowing for quick heat exchange without causing discomfort or harm to the patient. This non-invasive approach reduces the risk of infection and other complications that may arise from invasive methods.
Precise Temperature Control: Designed for high accuracy, the Arctic Sun Temperature Management System can rapidly cool or warm patients to a specific target temperature. The system allows healthcare providers to set, monitor, and adjust the target temperature with precision, ensuring patient safety. Whether used for cooling after a cardiac arrest or warming in the case of hypothermia, the system ensures temperature is controlled within narrow limits to achieve the desired therapeutic outcome.
Universal ArcticGel Pads for Efficient Heat Exchange: The system comes with Universal ArcticGel pads, which are designed for maximum surface contact with the patient. These hydrogel pads are flexible, adhere easily to the body, and cover large areas of the skin to optimize the cooling and warming process. The Universal ArcticGel pads are also compatible with a variety of patient sizes and body types, enhancing the system’s versatility across different patient demographics.
Applications in Therapeutic Hypothermia: Therapeutic hypothermia, or targeted temperature management (TTM), is a vital therapy used in critical care to reduce the risk of brain injury following cardiac arrest. The Arctic Sun system is specifically designed to facilitate this therapy, enabling healthcare professionals to lower the patient's body temperature to a controlled, therapeutic level. Studies have shown that this can significantly improve neurological outcomes and survival rates in post-cardiac arrest patients.
Rapid Cooling and Warming Capabilities: The Arctic Sun system is capable of quickly cooling or warming patients depending on the clinical need. For example, in the case of fever management, the system can be used to bring down elevated body temperatures, reducing the risk of fever-related complications. Conversely, it can warm patients in cases of accidental hypothermia or when gradual warming is required during the rewarming phase after therapeutic hypothermia.
Continuous Monitoring and Alarms: The system includes a comprehensive monitoring feature that continuously tracks the patient’s temperature and adjusts the heating or cooling process accordingly. Alarms are set to notify healthcare staff in case of any deviations from the target temperature, ensuring that the patient remains in the desired therapeutic range. This continuous feedback loop allows for quick interventions if needed, ensuring optimal patient care.
User-Friendly Interface: The Arctic Sun Temperature Management System is designed with healthcare professionals in mind, offering an intuitive and easy-to-navigate interface. The system’s display allows for simple control over the target temperature, monitoring of patient data, and adjustment of settings. The user-friendly design ensures that staff can operate the system efficiently, reducing the learning curve and improving workflow in critical care environments.
Versatile Applications in Critical Care: In addition to its use in cardiac arrest recovery, the Arctic Sun system is widely used in managing traumatic brain injuries, stroke, sepsis, and other conditions where body temperature control is necessary. Its ability to regulate temperature across a wide range of medical situations makes it a valuable tool in both surgical and intensive care units.
The Medivance 317-00 Arctic Sun Temperature Management System with Universal ArcticGel is an essential tool in the modern critical care setting, offering precise, non-invasive temperature control for a variety of medical applications. Whether for therapeutic hypothermia, fever management, or general temperature regulation, the Arctic Sun system delivers reliable and accurate temperature management, improving patient outcomes in life-threatening conditions. With its easy-to-use interface, durable Universal ArcticGel pads, and ability to rapidly respond to patient needs, this system is a top choice for healthcare professionals focused on delivering the highest level of care.
