ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes apparatus for use with a temperature controlled fluid circulating device. The apparatus is for controlling a temperature of an area of a body and includes a fluid circulating blanket having first and second sides and including fluid connection hoses extending from one edge thereof and including an extended end for being connected to the fluid circulating device. A support envelope surrounds the blanket to enclose at least the first and second sides within an interior of the envelope. The support envelope includes a waterproof inside surface adjacent the first side and waterproof outside surface adjacent the second side. The waterproof inside surface has an inward layer of plastic material and outwardly disposed material for placement against the area of the body. The waterproof outside surface has an inward layer of plastic material and includes insulation material. The waterproof outside and inside surfaces of the support envelope are sealed at peripheral edges thereof to cause the support envelope to be capable of collecting fluid within the interior of the support envelope.
