Benefits of technology

The patent describes a cooling system for patients that uses air moving devices to efficiently cool the patient. The system has an upper and lower cooling portion with filters to remove contaminants from the air. The air temperature control device adjusts the temperature of the air. The system also has liquid misters to dispense a mist of liquid onto the patient, and a liquid temperature controller to adjust the temperature of the liquid. The system provides a positive pressure within the enclosure area and is powered by batteries or a portable power generating device. The frame of the system is made of stainless steel and may have adjustable feet and wheels for easy access and transportation. The technical effects of the cooling system include efficient cooling, control over air temperature, and prevention of infection and contamination.

Problems solved by technology

Cooling too rapidly may lead to shock and cooling too slowly may lead to tissue damage as well as brain damage.

Abstract

A cooling bed system is configured to provide a cooling airflow around a patient suffering from heat exhaustion, heat stroke and or burns. A cooling bed system produces an airflow over a patient and preferably an airflow from both above and below the patient to more effectively and quickly cool the patient A cooling bed system may also include a liquid dispenser that creates mist that is carried by the airflow to further cool the patient. A patient may be supported by a platform having a plurality of openings to allow airflow and mist to pass therethrough. A controller controls the airflow rate and / or temperature of the air, and may also control the liquid dispensing rate and / or temperature of the liquid as a function of an input from a temperature sensor to effectively and safely cool the patient.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15 / 683,754 filed on Aug. 22, 2018 and currently pending, which claims the benefit of U.S. provisional patent application No. 621378,076, entitled Cooling Bed System and filed on Aug. 22. 2016; the entirety of both applications are hereby incorporated by reference herein.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIONField of the Invention[0002]The invention relates to a cooling bed system for patients that are overheated or are suffering from a heat stroke.Background[0003]Heat stroke is a life-threatening condition characterized by a high core body temperature or more than 40° C. and a disturbed level of consciousness. It is a common occurrence for those that engage in physical activities, especially outdoor activity. Athletes, police and, those in the military often are affected by overheating and heat stroke. The degree of tissue damage is dependent on the degree and duration of hyperth...
