The Olympic Cool-Cap system is a helmet designed to provide hypothermia therapy for neonatal encephalopathy caused by hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cool-Cap System Gets FDA Nod )〕 preventing cerebral palsy in babies born with little or no oxygen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cool-Cap System — Children's Hospital — Scott & White — Central Texas )〕 The device works by a steady flow of water at a selected temperature through a cap covering the infant's head to cool the brain〔 within the first six hours of life.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Natus Medical Incorporated — Newborn Brain Injury — Cool Cap System )〕 By cooling the brain, cell metabolism is slowed which prevents toxins from injured cells from spreading to other parts of the brain.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Miracle baby survives 20 minutes without oxygen — Phoenix Arizona news, breaking news, local news, weather radar, traffic from ABC15 News )〕 ==History==
Investigations into neonatal hypoxic-ischemic cerebral injury in the period from 2000 to 2006 made it clear that for a group of high risk babies a slight temperature reduction could provide a significant reduction in brain injury. By 2007 reviewers found that cooling was a safe and effective intervention. Some doubt remained as to whether it was warranted in cases of asphyxiation, but by 2009 reviewers found that it reduced the occurrence of severe neurological problems.
