Abstract
At least some aspects of the present disclosure feature a tubular convective system including an inflatable tubular convective device and a fixation element. The inflatable tubular convective device includes a tubular structure. In some cases, the fixation element includes a first ring, where the first ring is configured to secure a first part of the tubular convective device. In some cases, the fixation element includes a flat element and a flexible element attached to the flat element proximate to a first end of the flexible element, where the flexible element is configured to secure a first part of the tubular convective device.
