The answer is use of a hypothermic Blanket.

Thyroid crisis is a potentially fatal acute episode of thyroid over activity characterized by high fever, severe tachycardia, delirium, dehydration, and extreme irritability. Because thyroid storm is an emergency, it requires immediate interventions for control. The high fever is treated with hypothermic blankets, and dehydration is reversed with intravenous fluids
