    Abstract: A patient temperature control catheter (10) includes working fluid supply (16) and return (18) lumens through which working fluid circulates to exchange heat with a patient in whom the catheter is positioned. At least one lumen is defined by plural coils (32) axially spaced from each other. At least a first coil is a large coil that inflates with working fluid to seat against a wall of a blood vessel in which the catheter is positioned, with blood flowing through the coil so as not to block blood flow in the vessel. Alternate centering structures (116) are disclosed.

    Abstract: A catheter has an inner sleeve through which refrigerant circulates to and from a source of refrigerant. The catheter also has an outer sleeve surrounding the inner sleeve, including a distal end thereof. The outer sleeve is filled with a frozen biocompatible substance. The refrigerant is separated from the biocompatible substance by one or more walls of the inner sleeve such that the refrigerant is isolated from a patient in whom the catheter is positioned by both the inner sleeve and the frozen biocompatible substance. The refrigerant circulates through the catheter when the catheter is positioned in the patient to maintain the biocompatible substance frozen as heat is transferred from the patient to the biocompatible substance.

    Abstract translation: 导管具有内套筒,制冷剂通过该内套筒从制冷剂源流出。 导管还具有围绕内套筒的外套筒,包括其远端。 外套筒装有冷冻的生物相容性物质。 制冷剂通过内套筒的一个或多个壁与生物相容性物质分离,使得制冷剂与内套管和冷冻生物相容性物质由导管定位的患者隔离。 当导管位于患者体内时,制冷剂通过导管循环,以便当热量从患者转移到生物相容性物质时,使生物相容性物质保持冷冻。
