DESCRIPTION
The Polar Skin™ C2E Ice Pack Bundle consists of four (4) specially-sized C.O.R.E™ Packs encased in Polar Skin™ Mini-Mesh sleeves saturated with ArcticAqua™. Unique to C2E C.O.R.E™ Packs, Polar Skin Mini-Mesh sleeves form an air-permeable layer that allows for the movement of air and water vapor necessary for convective and evaporative cooling. C2E C.O.R.E™ Packs are intended for use in the high blood flow regions of the groin and underarms.
Features of Polar Skin Technology
Polar Skin Mini-Mesh™
(n.) A unique smart textile treated with a hydrofunctional polymer. Fiber construction allows for liquid absorptive capacity 350% greater than basis weight.
ArcticAqua™(n.) A proprietary solution that prevents rigidity well below 0°F while providing the requisite moisture to support evaporative, convective, and conductive cooling.
C.O.R.E.™
The improved four-layer flat design that includes the existing outer blanket layer plus two cooling pads and one inner pad that provides maximum cooling retention. The phased layer approach allows for maximum evaporation, convective and conductive heat removal from a hyperthermic patient. The C.O.R.E.™ technology significantly improves the functionality and longevity of the Comprehensive Cooling System compared to the standard gel pack.
- Vapor and liquid permeable substrate
- Cooling fluids are impregnated within the substrate
- Non-woven conductive barrier layer
- Promotes evaporation, convection, and conduction cooling methods for maximum thermal exchange
- Distributed heat exchange
- Staged phase change materials act as a thermal super capacitor
- Facilitates conductive, convective, and evaporative cooling
- Four specially-sized Comfort Gel Packs providing protracted direct cooling of high blood flow (large artery) regions of the body (underarms and groin)
- Maintenance free; impervious to environmental and biological contamination
- Allows for full access to the body while cooling
- Adheres to current National Athletic Trainers’ Association and U.S. Army protocols for heat illness treatment
Gel Packs
- Plastic bag filled and sealed with a polymer gel
- Barrier bags are impermeable to vapor and liquid penetration
- Plastic barrier is non-conductive
- Utilizes conduction for thermal Exchange
- Localized heat exchange
- No materials phase change
