Esophageal temperature control
"Insertion of the Esophageal Cooling Device (ECD) will take place as described in the product monograph. The ECD will be connected to the heat exchange unit Blanketrol Hyper-Hypothermia System® (Cincinnati Sub-Zero, Cincinnati, OH) and will be used for temperature control for a total of 36 hours. A patient target of 35°C will be set on the heat exchange unit. Once target is attained, it will be maintained for 24 hours. Slow rewarming will then be achieved by increasing the input target by 0.2°C per hour, until a target of 36.6°C is reached.~All temperature data (device, input target, and patient bladder temperature) will be captured automatically using Data Export Software® (Cincinnati Sub-Zero, Cincinnati, OH) on an external laptop connected to the external heat exchange unit."
