Abstract: A reusable wrap for holding and securing a substantially planar heat transfer pouch to a body part includes a substantially planar container made of a flexible non-woven material and formed as a rectangular pocket. The pocket includes an open end that is sized to receive the planar heat transfer pouch. The planar heat transfer pouch can be, for example, a flexible rectangular shaped pouch having a plurality of coplanar pouch pockets for holding ice lumps. A thermal barrier can be positioned in the container pocket and located to interpose the heat transfer pouch between the thermal barrier and the body part. An elongated strap is attached to the container and includes at least one fastener to secure the container and heat transfer pouch against the surface of the body part when the strap is wrapped around the body part.

Abstract: A device for transferring heat from a body part includes a segmented pouch formed from upper and lower layers of plastic that are heat bonded together at their peripheries. A fluid port is established for the pouch to allow a fluid such as water to be introduced into the pouch. Within the pouch, a plurality of substantially coplanar pockets for holding a respective plurality of frozen fluid lumps are formed by selectively heat bonding the layers together. With this arrangement, the pouch and frozen fluid lumps establish an ice wrap that is sufficiently flexible to conform to a surface of the body. An elongated strap made of nonwoven fabric is attached to the pouch and a piece of hook fastener is affixed to the strap for engagement with the nonwoven fabric to secure the device when the strap is wrapped around the pouch and body part.
