ABSTRACT:
An inflatable chamber which is formable into a generally U-shaped structure includes an air inlet for receiving a thermally-controlled inflating medium and a plurality of holes in a side portion. When the medium is received in the chamber, it is expelled through the holes and bathes a patient to effect hypothermia treatment. In addition, the apparatus may include selectively positionable non-inflatable coverings for selectively warming pediatric patient body portions while leaving other portions exposed to untreated ambient air.
