Embodiment Construction

[0174] Having illustrated the invention by way of example, non-limiting embodiments are now described.

[0175] figure 1 is a perspective view of a body part temperature regulating device 10 according to the present invention. In the exemplary embodiment, body part temperature regulating device 10 is scalp cooling device 10 . The scalp cooling device 10 comprises a refrigeration and control unit 100 together with a body part attachment, in particular a scalp cooling attachment 200 .

[0176] The refrigeration and control unit 100 is a portable unit mounted on castors 101 so that the portable unit can be easily rolled between rooms in eg a hospital. The refrigeration and control unit 100 includes a mains power connection and a power on / off switch, neither of which is shown in figure 1 middle. A user interface 139 is also provided.

[0177] figure 2 A schematic overview of a body part temperature regulating device 10 is shown.

[0178] The refrigeration and control unit ...

Abstract

A body part thermoregulation device for regulating the temperature of a part of a human or animal body, the body part thermoregulation device comprising: a controller arranged to receive: a first input from a first temperature sensor, the first temperature sensor a temperature sensor arranged to detect the temperature of the heat transfer fluid at a first location of the heat transfer fluid; a second input from a second temperature sensor arranged to be at a different heat transfer fluid location than the first location The second position of the heat transfer fluid detects the temperature of the heat transfer fluid; a third input from a flow sensor arranged to detect the flow rate of the heat transfer fluid; wherein the controller is arranged to utilize the The first, second and third inputs determine the amount of heat transferred to the heat transfer fluid and output a control signal to adjust the amount of heat transferred to the heat transfer fluid based on the determined amount of heat transferred.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to body part thermoregulation devices for regulating the temperature of a part of a human or animal body. In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to scalp cooling devices. In particular, but not exclusively, the present invention relates to scalp cooling devices for regulating the temperature of the scalp of a person undergoing chemotherapy or other similar treatments. Background technique [0002] The benefits of cooling the scalp during chemotherapy treatments have been known for some time. US Patent 4,566,455 (Kramer) was published in 1986 and discloses an improved scalp covering that provides circulation of a liquid coolant to reduce and control scalp temperature during chemotherapy. According to this document, cooling the scalp during chemotherapy reduces hair loss by reducing metabolic activity in the scalp. [0003] Twelve years later, International Patent Application No. WO98 / 16176 (Olo...
