ZOLL Intravascular Temperature Management (IVTM)
Item Code8700-06 / 50-80
The IVTM™ technology gets to the core of the temperature issue by managing patient temperature from the inside out.
ZOLL’s Thermogard XP (TGXP) Intravascular Temperature Management System provides the power and control you need to rapidly, safely, and effectively manage the core body temperature of critically ill or surgical patients. The system combines precise temperature management with the critical care functions of a standard central venous catheter (CVC). Cool or warm saline circulates through the catheter in a closed loop, quickly cooling or warming the patient as venous blood passes over the balloons.
- A ZOLL catheter is inserted into the central venous system of a critically ill or surgical patient (femoral, subclavian, or internal jugularinsertion).
- The ZOLL Thermogard XP thermal regulation system controls the temperature of the saline circulating through the catheter balloons via remote sensing of the patients temperature.
- The patient is cooled or warmed as venous blood passes over each balloon - exchanging heat without infusing saline into the patient.
