<p>An upper-body shaped cooling device which holds a fluid, for example a liquid or air. Preferably the device has one or more pockets that are filled with an endothermic liquid. The endothermic liquid comes from a pack (Fig 2) containing two or more components separated by a breakable membrane which when broken contact each other and undergo an endothermic reaction. The result mixture is injected into the cardiac arrest rescue device. The pockets may be manufactured from a multi-layered aluminized material. The device is worn over the chest and heart area of a patient after cardiac arrest prior to hospital admission. After use the pockets can be emptied and warm liquid inserted. A method of use to induce therapeutic hypothermia is also claimed.</p> |
