CoolCore Biomedical Technologies: Manipulating Body Core Temperature Noninvasively
Executive Summary
Similar to holding a lighted match near a thermostat to induce a lower room temperature, CoolCore Biomedical Technologies LLC’s technology cools the body by tricking it into thinking it is hotter than it actually is. According to its founders, SmartCool is the only totally noninvasive effective cooling technology designed to prevent or limit reperfusion injury (brain and tissue damage) within the critical initial time frame following an ischemic event such as sudden cardiac arrest, stroke, or traumatic brain injury.
