Embodiment Construction

[0049] A top view of a garment 2 according to one embodiment of the invention in an unfolded state can be seen in FIG. 1 . The garment 2 is designed to fit the torso of the human body. see in particular Figure 1B The outer garment 2 is composed of two outer layers 4 and 6, wherein a fluid passage space 7 is defined between the two outer layers. The garment is provided with a fluid inlet 8 and a fluid outlet 10 for fluid to enter and exit the fluid channel space, respectively. The garment is provided with a partition 12 which defines a fluid flow path schematically indicated by arrowed lines 14 . The fluid is typically water, but other suitable liquids, such as alcohol, oil, etc., may also be used, and in other embodiments may also be a gas, such as air, etc.

[0050] like Figure 1B As can be further seen in , the garment is formed with a matrix of welding points 16 in which the two outer layers 4 and 6 of the garment 2 are welded to each other. When pressurized by fluid...

Abstract

A system and method for controlling an individual's body and temperature are provided. The system comprises a heat exchanger for transferring heat to or removing heat from portions of the individual's body surface, at least one BCT-sensing device for measuring the individual's actual BCT (aBCT) and emitting an aBCT data signal, at least one sensing device for measuring a parameter indicative of the heat transfer dynamics (HTD) between the body surface and the body's core, and emitting an HTD data signal, and a control module for receiving data signal from measuring devices, comprising the aBCT data signal and the HTD data signal, and for emitting a control signal for controlling heat exchange properties of the heat exchanger as a function of the data signals and a desired body core temperature (dBCT).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the thermoregulation system of living organisms. The system of the present invention is relevant to the human and animal bodies. Background technique [0002] Living organisms can maintain a normal body temperature. Under normal circumstances, the body temperature of the human body is about 36.5-37°C. However, the body may not be able to regulate temperature properly during extreme temperature conditions or during various medical procedures. Such conditions include, for example, exposure of individuals to extreme temperatures and the loss of the body's ability to properly regulate body temperature during various physiological diseases and medical conditions such as general anesthesia. [0003] Hypothermia is a decrease in body temperature that may occur with exposure to cold. Mild hypothermia is a decrease in the body's core temperature (i.e., the temperature of the internal organs and tissues within the body) to abo...
