General Conditions of Operation

The general rules and conditions/prerequisites for safe installation and operation of the CRYO XC™.

Requirements for the Cryosauna room/Cryotherapy Center

1. Liquid Nitrogen

As part of daily procedure, the cryosauna requires a consumable in the form of liquid nitrogen. Nitrogen in its liquid form provides us with attributes that allow the application of cryotherapy in an effective and safe form in a controlled environment such as our Cryosauna CC. It is understood that nitrogen is an inert gas, and unrecognizable within ambient air whether by vision, touch or smell. This fact establishes the need for safety measures/requirements that must be applied in the room with the cryosauna and stored liquid nitrogen prior to becoming suitable for operation of a liquid nitrogen based cryosauna. Proper safety precautions are also among the prerequisites from suppliers of liquid nitrogen for all locations seeking to install an LN2 based unit.

– Risks & Hazards – Asphyxiation; depletion of oxygen in the ambient air

2. The Room

The cryosauna must be installed in a room that has ventilation providing 6 exchanges of the volume of air within the room in the     span of   one hour. This would include a ventilation system that extracts air at the foot of the room (near the floor level) as well as a system that provides inflow of fresh air, either entering from an adjacent room in case the cryo room is located inside a building or the air must be drawn inwards from the                 exterior in order to provide a constant flow of fresh air.

The room where the unit is installed requires an oxygen monitor which must be operational at all times. In case the Oxygen Monitor begins to sound the alarm, the room must be exited and air pathways opened up to allow for air replacement.

– Risks & Hazards – Rooms in basements are not recommended for the installation of a cryosauna. In case the Cryosauna is installed in a basement or a low lying room, the installation of a ventilation system with the necessary metrics of air exchange is critical and if the room does not comply with these requirements, then a cryotherapy unit cannot be installed in such a room.

3. The Transfer Hose

The transfer hose used for transfer between the pressurized tank and the cryosauna is ideally a vacuum jacketed (insulated) hose that provides safety for the users of the cryosauna as it does not freeze and therefore cannot put any operator working with the nitrogen tanks at                 risk of cold burns. The vacuum jacketed hose is the safest alternative as it has a protective layer in the form of a vacuum surrounding the flow pipe. In case the transfer hose is a regular armored jacketed hose or regular piping which freezes through the surface then caouchouc protection should be used.

When working with the pressurized tank, use of protective gloves and glasses is required.

– Risks & Hazards – Cold burns

4. Electricity

The Cryosauna must be connected to a dedicated electric circuit within the building. For proper operation, the unit requires a C16 circuit breaker.

In case of electric issues, the unit includes an emergency kill switch.

– Risks & Hazards – Electric shock; damaged components, damaged electric circuit

Operating & Using the Cryosauna

5. The Operator

– All future operators are required to pass a training session with a trained professional/representative of the manufacturer of the product or otherwise assigned representative in the market. The operator becomes certified for use of cryotherapy equipment produced and distributed by Cryoniq or a representative within a given market.

– The operator must inform the patient of the contraindications for the use of whole body cryotherapy and entry into the cryosauna. If the patient does not comply with the contraindications, or the patient’s doctor has advised the patient to refrain from using cryotherapy then they should not proceed. The operator requires every patient that wishes toenter the cryosauna to comply with the rules of use by signing the waiver.

– The use of the Cryosauna requires an operator present at all times and the Cryosauna can never be operated or used by a single person. The operator, whether in public or private settings must oversee the procedure and wellbeing of the patient.

– Before starting the session, the patient lift is raised to the assigned level with the patients shoulders within 5 cm of the cabin’s top rim.

– The operator assures that the patient is wearing the safety collar, protective boots and gloves at all times when inside the cryosauna.

6. The User

– For safety reasons, the patient must wear the safety collar, protective boots and gloves at all times when inside the cryosauna.

– The safety collar allows the client to leave their head in ambient room air to rule out any contact with nitrogen vapors.

– In case of an emergency or technical issues, the emergency button must be pressed and the operator as well as the patient must leave the room as quickly as possible.

– The cryotherapy session should never feel uncomfortable, therefore, in case the patient starts to feel that the cold inside the patient cabin is uncomfortable or if they have a burning sensation they must inform the operator, at which point they must quickly stop the session and exit the cryosauna. The client can easily exit the cabin by opening the door.

7. The Cryosauna Log

– The cryosauna has a detailed database of steps performed by the operator of the cryosauna which provides a thorough insight into all actions that were manually or automatically adjusted on the machine. This is what we call the Log. The Log provides the manufacturer with precise metrics of the use of the unit, technical diagnostics, as well as the drying patterns, and session statistics.
