According to an aspect, there is provided a cardiopulmonary resuscitation, CPR, device (1) for enhancing the delivery of CPR to a patient. The device (1) comprises: a patient side (3) for engagement with the chest of the patient; and a user side (2) for engagement with the hands of a user delivering CPR to the patient. One or more of the surface of the patient side (3) and the surface of the user side (2) is at least partially formed of a material with variable contact characteristics configured to be controlled so as to regulate the lateral force distribution profile at the one or more of the surface of the patient side (3) and the surface of the user side (2) from a force applied to the device (1) by the user and transferred through the device (1) to the patient. According to other aspects, there is provided a control method for a cardiopulmonary resuscitation, CPR, device and a computer program which, when executed on a computing device, carries out a control method for a cardiopulmonary resuscitation, CPR, device.

An emergency cardiac arrest resuscitation drone system that includes a drone, a mechanical chest compression device that is attached to the drone, and a control system connected to the drone. The control system is configured to activate and direct the drone to a geographic location of an emergency. The drone has a GPS system, a microphone/speaker, and a camera that enable a medical certified staff member to provide step by step instructions to a bystander at the geographic location of the emergency.

A robotic massage machine that includes at least one movable robotic arm having a first end effector, a processor that controls the movable robotic arm, a memory, a first body form having at least a first anatomical calibration point, a preprogrammed initial massage path based on the first body form, and a second body form having at least a first anatomical calibration point located in an analogous anatomical location as the first anatomical calibration point of the first body form. The processor is programmed to morph the initial massage path to calculate a calibrated massage path based on the second body form.

A personal care device has a hollow housing having at least a first transparent or translucent portion extending between the housing's outer and inner surfaces, a carrier fixed inside the housing, at least a first light source mounted on the carrier, and a light barrier mounted on the carrier. The light barrier has at least a first spring arranged to bias a light barrier plate of the light barrier against the housing's inner surface. The light barrier plate has at least a first light transmission portion that is aligned with the first light source and the first transparent or translucent portion of the housing, so that light emitted by the first light source is visible at the outer surface of the first transparent or translucent portion.

The invention relates to a device for the physical relaxation of a person. The device comprises at least one contact surface (11), on which at least parts of the person come into physical contact with the device. The device additionally comprises at least one relaxation means for generating and/or blocking stimuli in order to relax the person and at least one lighting means (13), which is designed to emit optical radiation in a wavelength range between 200 nm and 230 nm and supply a radiation region with optical radiation with a peak ranging between 207 and 222 nm. The invention also relates to the use of a lighting means for the aforementioned purpose and to a method for disinfecting a device for the physical relaxation of a person.

A method of administering a massage that comprises providing a foldable massage table having a first half and a second half and assembling the foldable massage table. The first half of the foldable massage table is locked to the second half of the foldable massage table in an assembled position. At least two portions of a flexible member are secured to opposite sides of the foldable massage table. The massage practitioner stands on the foldable massage table and utilizes the flexible member to assist with delivery of force to a patient lying on the foldable massage table. A foot of the massage practitioner is used to massage the patient.

A robotic system, assembly and computer assisted media for providing therapeutic treatment not limited to muscle lengthening. An adjustable probe is mounted to a carriage, in turn supported in width and depth extending relationship upon a portable trolley supported frame or other movable carriage which can be positioned over a patient support device for applying treatment to a given patient muscle areas according input parameters selected from any of heat, cold, vibration (frequency), pulse pressure and duration. A processor input for any of a PC, tablet, laptop or smartphone with mobile application communicates with the software component for providing directions to actuate the probe to apply a treatment protocol. The input can be communicated remotely via NFC, Bluetooth or Cloud capabilities with a remote care provider or ACO organization.
