Description
The Polar Vortex Cold Therapy System circulates ice water from a clear insulated basin through a universal therapy pad. Digital controls run sessions up to thirty minutes with adjustable flow and temperature monitoring. The package carries HCPCS code E0218 and includes the pad, tube, bandages and adapter.
- HCPCS E0218 listed – the maker publishes the E0218 code for this system
- Clear insulated basin – the ice level stays visible through the basin wall
- Digital controls – thirty minute timer, flow adjustment and temperature monitoring
- Secure straps included – the pad package adds adjustable secure straps
About the Polar Vortex System
The basin measures about 30 by 36 by 30 centimeters, and the maker lists the system at fifteen pounds. Circulation keeps the pad cold across the session rather than warming like a static pack. A nonwoven barrier is not listed for this package, so the pad directions in the manual govern skin contact setup.
The manufacturer’s warranty policy gives hot and cold therapy units six months of coverage on the unit and the pad. This listing is one complete system, item PV105, in the manufacturer’s packaging. The adjustable secure straps are part of this package’s listed contents.
