CHAPTER 1: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Definitions WARNING!!!
Indicates a condition that may endanger the patient or the system operator.
CAUTION!
Indicates a condition that may damage the equipment.
NOTE:
Indicates ways in which the system’s operation can be made more efficient.
Intended Use CritiCool® MINI is a thermal regulating system, indicated for monitoring and controlling patient temperature.
Warnings 1.
The physician must be notified if the patient's temperature does not respond properly, does not reach the prescribed temperature, or if there is any change in the prescribed temperature range. Failure to inform the clinician may result in injury to the patient.
2.
The misuse of the temperature regulation equipment can be potentially harmful to the patient.
3.
Do not plug wet probes into the sockets of the CritiCool® MINI device.
4.
The user should verify that no fluids are present at the skin/Wrap interface during the procedure. Failure to do so can cause lesions on the patient's skin. •
Following use, a pattern resembling the Wrap may appear for a short period of time on the patient's skin.
5.
Pressure sores may appear or develop when soft tissue is compressed between a bony prominence and external surface. The use of the CritiCool® MINI system does not prevent this from happening.
6.
Routine care should be taken during long thermoregulation procedures to prevent pressure sores.
7.
Do not lift or move the patient by means of the Wrap. This may cause tearing and water leakage.
8.
Prevent any thermal isolation, such as a pillow or other items, between the Wrap and the patient's body.
9. Do not apply heating/cooling to lower extremities during aortic cross DDT-320-000 Rev G

clamping. Thermal injury may occur if heating/cooling is applied to ischemic limbs. 10. Wraps cannot be placed over transdermal patches. 11. Wraps should not come in contact with open wounds. 12. Do not touch the ribbon cable behind the display and the patient simultaneously.
Precautions 1. Follow the warning notes listed in the various sections of this manual. 2. Only trained personnel familiar with all system operating procedures and certified only by Belmont Medical Technologies or authorized agents of Belmont Medical Technologies are allowed to use the CritiCool® MINI system. 3. If moisture or leaks are discovered in the connecting hose and/or wrap, turn off the CritiCool® MINI device, disconnect the power cable from its power source, and correct the problem before proceeding. 4. If the device sounds an alarm and/or presents a display other than the standard Belmont Medical Technologies display, the operator should proceed according to the display message and/or the troubleshooting instructions (See CHAPTER 7: TROUBLESHOOTING). 5. Avoid folds in the Wrap-these may obstruct water flow. 6. Do not block the CritiCool® MINI device ventilation grilles. Air must be able to flow freely in and out to keep the device cool. 7. Use sterile or 0.22 µm filtered water. Do not use de-ionized water or water created through reverse osmosis because it may promote corrosion of the metal components of the system. 8. When X-ray imaging is performed on a patient wearing a wrap, shadows from the wrap may appear on the X-ray film. 9. Avoid inserting any sharp object between the patient and the wrap. 10. Read all manufacturers’ instructions associated with the temperature probes or temperature probe adapters supplied by Belmont Medical Technologies.

EMC Safety For safe use of the CritiCool® MINI, it is required to keep CritiCool® MINI at a safe distance from devices emitting radio frequency (RF). Refer to Appendix B for recommended separation distances between the CritiCool® MINI and the RF source.
Improper Use Improper use of the CritiCool® MINI system can lead to skin lesions, electrical hazards, and severe changes in body temperature.

CHAPTER 2: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION CritiCool® MINI is a thermal regulating system, indicated for monitoring and controlling patient temperature. CritiCool® MINI is based on the CritiCool® system and offers additional benefits with its reduced footprint and mobility. The CritiCool® MINI system controls Targeted Temperature Management (TTM) in an effective and precise manner. The desired temperature is preset by the physician with a possible range of target temperatures from Hypothermia to Normothermia. The system is composed of two elements, the CritiCool® MINI device, and the wrap. The CritiCool® MINI device functions as a control unit and a cooling/heating pump, which circulates water. The control unit monitors the patient’s core temperature through specific probes, and using its onboard body temperature control algorithm, delivers water to reach the desired set point temperature. The cooling/heating pump brings the water to the required temperature and the pump circulates it through the specially designed CureWrap™. The CureWrap™ is a flexible 3D single piece design through which the water circulates. It is designed to be in close contact with a large area of the body, thus allowing optimization of energy transfer. NOTE:
DDT-320-000 Rev G
The Belmont Medical Technologies wrap is proprietary to Belmont Medical Technologies and this is the only wrap authorized to be used with this Thermoregulation Device.

CritiCool® MINI System The CritiCool® MINI system consists of the following elements: • • •
CritiCool® MINI device CureWrap™ Accessories
CritiCool® MINI Device The CritiCool® MINI device has a microprocessor that controls the water temperature flowing into the wrap worn by the patient. The water temperature is controlled and maintained to the desired set point by measuring the actual patient temperature (core and surface) and adjusting the temperature of the wrap accordingly. Water flow in the wrap is regulated by timed pauses of the flow during clinical operation. In TTM and Normothermia modes, during the initial phase of regulation, the flow cycle is 12 minutes ON and 1 minute OFF. In steady state (when the Core Temp is within the Set Point range), the cycle is 12 minutes ON and 12 minutes OFF.
CritiCool® MINI Battery CritiCool® MINI is equipped with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery which allows the system to work without an external power supply for up to 60 minutes. The battery is shipped with a 30% charge and will need to be fully charged before the first use.
Power Cable Connection Connect the power cable to a hospital-grade power outlet.
Grounding the System To protect the patient and hospital personnel, the CritiCool® MINI system must be grounded. Accordingly, the system is equipped with a detachable 3-wire cable which grounds the instrument to the power line ground (protective earth) when plugged into an appropriate 3-prong receptacle. WARNING!!!
DDT-320-000 Rev G
Do not use a 3-to-2-wire adapter with this instrument.

Garment/Wrap General The wrap is a one-piece covering with inflow and outflow tubes that circulate water in the wrap channels. It is designed to facilitate the wrapping of individual parts of the body (chest, arms, thighs, etc.) to maximize surface coverage.
Description and Intended Use The Wrap is: •
Disposable
•
Biocompatible
•
Latex free
•
Antistatic
•
Adjustable
Each section of the Wrap is separately wrapped around the appropriate area of the patient to ensure maximum body surface coverage. The Wrap is intended to fit loosely. Review the CureWrap instructions for use leaflet supplied with the wrap for further information. The water’s exit and entrance points are short sections of tubing integrated with a Quick Coupling Connector (QCC) and welded to convenient locations on the edges of the Wrap. The Wrap design allows the physician to cover a maximum surface area as needed. WARNING!!!
The Wraps are designed for single patient use only. Reusing may cause cross contamination and/or irritation.
Wrap Material •
