摘要 |
An improved cold/compress therapy for the treatment of muscle, tissue, tendon, or cartilage injury or damage. The ICE Power Pack consists of a plurality of hollow vessels filled with water or aqueous solutions or colloids that can be solidified in a conventional domestic or commercial freezer. The encapsulated water or aqueous solutions or colloids rely on the high latent heat of fusion as they undergo a phase change providing an extended therapeutic period in a medically safe temperature zone. The vessels are sandwiched between flexible insulating and non-insulating layers that serve as compresses.
