Intravascular Temperature Management (IVTM) Temperature Management Is Vital to Life American Stroke Association Temperature is one of the four main vital signs. American Association of Neurological Surgeons Management of temperature has long been European Stroke Initiative American Heart Association recognized as vital to life. Today, major medical International Liaison Committee of Resuscitation societies recommend temperature management American Society of Anesthesiologists as the standard-of-care treatment for many ASPAN American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses critically ill or surgical...

Therapeutic Cooling ZOLL’s IVTM is Vital to Reducing Fever Induced Hypothermia Clinical studies have shown that elevated body temperature in neurologic intensive care patients is associated with a longer ICU and hospital length of stay (LOS), higher mortality rate and worse outcomes.5 Caregivers understand the challenges of implementing a temperature management protocol including: - lowering patient temperature (32°-34°C) - maintaining target temperature for 12-24 hours - controlled rewarming back to normal temperature (37°C) - preventing rebound fever Incidence of Fever in Neurointensive Care...

This can result in serious complications, including arrhythmias, coagulopathy Less Power HACA Trial Using Surface Cooling 14% of patients never reached target temperatures with external IVTM Proven External Methods A recent study comparing the efficacy of commercially available cooling devices demonstrates the superior...

Frequently Asked Questions About ZOLL IVTM What’s the advantage of using Intravascular Temperature Management (IVTM) versus surface cooling or warming methods? How will using the IVTM System impact our nursing staff? “Surface cooling is slow, uncomfortable, limits patient access, and is labor intensive for our nursing staff, often requiring intubation and paralysis to control shivering. The nurses report that using the Alsius IVTM System requires signicantly less nursing time than external methods to reach and maintain target temperatures.“ “We participated in a randomized, controlled trial of...
