Infant warming system having ECG monitor and method for providing resuscitation assistance

An infant warming system comprising a platform for supporting an infant, at least two chest electrodes configured to connect to and detect cardiac potentials from a chest of the infant, an ECG monitor configured to receive the cardiac potentials from the at least two chest electrodes and determine a heart rate based on the cardiac potentials, a pulse oximeter device configured to determine an SpO.sub.2 for the infant, and a processor configured to compare the heart rate for the infant to a first heart rate threshold and compare the SpO.sub.2 for the infant to a first SpO.sub.2 threshold. The processor can also adjust a display of the heart rate and the SpO.sub.2 on a display device based on the comparisons and generate a first care instruction via a user interface based on the heart rate, the SpO.sub.2, or a combination thereof.

Oxygenator with a housing wall
11826502 · 2023-11-28 · ·

An oxygenator with a housing wall, which delimits a housing space with a blood inlet and a blood outlet, a gas inlet and a gas outlet, has a heating element which is arranged in the oxygenator between blood inlet and blood outlet in order to control the temperature of blood flowing through the housing space. For this purpose, the oxygenator has a radiation source and a receiver. The radiation source can be an infrared emitter and the receiver a matte-black surface, or the radiation source is an induction coil and the receiver has a material capable of induction. In a method for regulating the heat output on a heating element of an oxygenator, the through-flow of the blood through the oxygenator and the power of a pump acting on the through-flow are measured, and the heating power is adjusted in accordance therewith.

11399733 · 2022-08-02 · ·

A pediatric magnetic resonance (MRI) system and sub-system are provided. The pediatric MRI system includes a magnet-gradient assembly, an RF shield-body coil assembly and a pediatric MRI sub-system. The pediatric MRI sub-system includes an infant warmer or isolette having a patient section for accommodating a patient. The infant warmer is positionable relative to the magnet-gradient-body coil assembly of the pediatric MRI system. The pediatric MRI sub-system also includes a warming mattress arranged within the patient section of the infant warmer. The infant warming mattress includes an interior space filled at least partially with a host medium and a conduction heating system at least partially arranged in the interior space to conduct heat to the interior space of the infant warming mattress. The pediatric MRI system also includes at least one local radio frequency (RF) coil that is positionable within the patient section of the infant warmer.

Trauma heater system
11413186 · 2022-08-16 ·

A trauma heater system uses the exothermic properties of the reaction between the gas (Co2) and chemical crystals (Group IA and IIA hydroxides and metal hydroxides) to provide heat. Heat generated by the trauma heater system reverses temperature loss in a person's body subjected to lower outside temperature, as in hypothermia, thereby restoring lost body heat and/or maintaining a person's body temperature to prevent hypothermia.

Athlete's recovery system
11419756 · 2022-08-23 · ·

In one instance, a recovery system for a user is presented that includes a battery-operated, flexible wrap that applies heat with both conductive heat and radiant heat. The recovery system has a control unit that ramps the temperature applied using primarily perceived conductive heat before leveling at a target temperature. Other systems and devices are presented.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR REGULATING CORE BODY TEMPERATURE

A method for maintaining and/or increasing body temperature of a patient may involve delivering heat to a first location on a limb of the patient, delivering heat to a second location on the limb, apart from the first location, and applying intermittent compression to a third location on the limb, located between the first location and the second location. A device for maintaining and/or increasing body temperature of a patient may include a sleeve for positioning over at least part of one of the patient's limbs, first and second heat delivery members coupled with the sleeve, and an intermittent compression member coupled with the sleeve between the first and second heat delivery members.
