The Paxman Scalp Cooling System

The Paxman Scalp Cooling System provides the leading scalp-cooling technology for preventing chemotherapy-induced alopecia

The system consists of a compact refrigeration unit, containing a coolant that is circulated through specially designed cooling caps.

Available in 2 models to allow either 1 patient to be treated or 2 patients to be independently treated at the same time
Small, compact size, which is easily manoeuvred (Height 25.2”/64cm (inc. extended support arm 64.9”/165cm) x Width 12.6”/32cm x Depth 16.5”/42cm)
Easy-to-read, touch-screen visual display with system-status graphics
One-touch switch operation for simple ease of use
Scientifically developed, low-temperature, non-viscous coolant with ultra-efficient heat transfer properties
Visual and audible information signals for restricted and no-flow coolant conditions
Pay-for-use tokens available in some countries

The lightweight cold cap is manufactured from medical-grade, soft-silicone material designed to provide a close fit around the patient’s head.

After extensive anthropometric research regarding head shapes, 6 different cap sizes were developed to best meet the needs of all patients
Coolant passes through the cap to extract heat from the patient’s scalp
Instant cooling capability once connected to the system to allow for immediate use
Temperature sensors ensure the cap maintains an even and consistent temperature at the scalp
Neoprene cover insulates and protects from high room temperatures, whilst absorbing condensation
Bungee-cord adjustments ensure a close fit to the patient’s scalp
Attached to the Scalp Cooling System with quick-release, non-drip plastic couplings
