Abstract

The present invention is concerned with rapidly lowering the body temperature of a patient by having them inhale frozen particles. These particles melt in the patient's respiratory tract and are expelled as liquid droplets when the patient exhales. The invention includes not only the method for reducing body temperature, but the mists that are used in this method as well.
