Abstract

A disposable thermoregulation system to maintain normal temperature in an intraoperative and/or postoperative patient, the system comprising multiple layers (10, 12) of a flexible, fluid impermeable material joined together to form a plurality of passageways (24) for transporting therethrough a continuous flow of a least one temperature controlling fluid thereby providing a source of conductive heat to the patient; and a reflective surface (16) positioned on at least one of the multiple layers (10, 12) to reflect escaping radiant heat back to the patient. Furthermore, the pressurized nature of the fluid within the passageways causes the system to conform to the patient's body.
