P3/P6 Temperature Control System

P3/P6’s intelligent closed-loop temperature control system automatically adjusts water temperature based on the monitored patient’s core temp. The monitoring of the patient (both skin & core), water temperature ensures the safety throughout treatment, rewarming and maintenance while also avoiding other complications caused by long-term hypothermia. Quick access buttons on the side of the screen allows caregivers to easily switch between Hypothermia mode and Normothermia mode, tailored for versatility without the hassle when attending to patients’ needs.
  • Hypothermia Mode comes with an Intelligent Automatic Transition from Cooling-Maintenance treatment to Rewarming when Auto Mode is selected.

  • Normothermia Mode is applicable during surgery to help patients maintain stable temperatures, tailored to best meet every unique surgical situation.

Hypothermia for HIE

Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a brain injury disease with a high mortality rate. Therapeutic Hypothermia is regarded as a core treatment for HIE as it helps by maintaining a lower core temperature in newborns for up to 72 hours, effectively lowering mortality by slowing down apoptotic processes and reducing oxygen dependence in the brain. Traditional hypothermia treatment relies heavily on the use of manual cooling and rewarming methods such as ice packs, in which temperature control is not only inaccurate, but also leaves much room for human error. The current trend in the treatment of HIE has shifted heavily towards Precise Temperature Control by means of cooling devices that provide caregivers with Streamlined Procedures throughout the entire treatment process, hence, the P6.
