In this work we describe the construction and operation of a device intended to create the effect of hypothermia in the skull. This device is controlled through fuzzy algorithms for lowering or maintaining present temperature. The device is intended for use in emergency conditions, easily transportable for patients who have suffered ischemic attack.
