Abstract

1467729 Refrigerating CRYO MED DEVICES Inc 6 May 1974 [10 May 1973] 19825/74 Heading F4H [Also in Division A5] An inflatable wrap-around compress 41 comprises three layers of flexible plastics material 60, 61 and 62, layers 60 and 62 being joined together by a heat seal 63 to form an enclosed interior chamber, layer 61 lies between layers 60 and 62 and is joined to layer 62 by heat seals 65 forming a winding channel 66 in between layers 61 and 62 over substantially the whole surface of layer 61 with one end 67 of channel 66 communicating with the interior chamber and the other end being connected with an inlet fitting 43, and an outlet fitting 44 having a pressure-relief valve 46 communicating through layer 60 between the interior chamber and the ambient atmosphere, whereby in use the compress is secured around a limb by locking strips 45, and compressed refrigerant supplied to inlet fitting 43 volatilizes in channel 66 thereby cooling the compress, and gasified refrigerant exhausting into the chamber inflates the compress to apply pressure to the patient, the pressure being determined by valve 46. A quickrelease valve 48 is provided so that the compress may be rapidly deflated. A tank of liquefied refrigerant may be provided, connected to the inlet of the compress by a tube, and a flowcontrol and a check-valve provided to control the flow of refrigerant. In an alternative embodiment, Fig. 8 (not shown), the channel is in the form of a spiral. Other embodiments are an inflatable sleeve for treating a horse's leg; an inflatable mitten; and an inflatable boot. The compresses may be constructed so that the channel is in a wall portion either adjacent to, or distant from the area to be treated.
