Product description
The T/Pump® Localized Temperature Therapy system delivers temperature controlled water. The water flows through
an impeller driven pump through a bi-lumen hose. The hose connects to thermal transfer devices that can be applied
over, under, or around the patient. Water temperature increases with the use of the heater. Water temperature
decreases with the use of ice. The system delivers and removes thermal energy to and from the local anatomical sites.
This occurs at the contact point of the patient skin and thermal transfer device to raise or lower the temperature of local
anatomical sites.
Indications for use
The T/Pump localized temperature therapy system is for use in supplying warm or cold water at controlled temperatures
via thermal transfer devices. This is for the application of temperature therapy in situations where a physician
determines that temperature therapy is necessary. Intended for adult and pediatric human patient's skin as attended by
health care professionals and lay persons. For use in healthcare settings and home use.
Localized temperature therapy is of particular benefit in treating the following applications:
•
Orthopedic conditions such as acute injuries, chronic pain, and muscle spasm and strains.
•
Skin trauma such as abscesses, boils, bruises, burns, and contusions.
•
Other medical conditions such as chronic arthritis, neuritis, phlebitis, tendonitis and IV infiltration, and symptoms
such as infections and localized pain.
For use with non-acute traumatized tissue, impaired mental status, insensate body surface, and oxygen therapy. If an
oxygen tent is in use, do not use the pump inside the tent.
Note: Applications are as determined by a physician.
Expected service life
The T/Pump controller has a two year expected service life under normal use conditions and with appropriate periodic
maintenance.
