A noxipoint stimulating device uses light, mechanical force, and heat as a source of stimulating energy, which is configured to be applied on the Noxipoints.

This is a device, belonging to the medical and hospital artifacts industry, developed to accelerate the hemostatic process for patients undergoing radial punctures, partially compressing the artery subjected to treatment; said cryo-hemostatic device is essentially presented in the form of a wristband (1), providing end bands (2) providing velcro-based closing, interconnected by an intermediate band (3) below which a first cryogenic reservoir pad is located (4), which can be filled with a saline substance by the action of a syringe connected to the first connection nipple (5) attached to the first tube (6), flanked by the second external reservoir pad (7), also provided with a second connection nipple (8), attached to the second tube (9).

A portable device for the thermal medical treatment of skin allows a treatment attachment to be coupled to a mobile data-processing unit, preferably a smartphone or a tablet, via an interface, wherein a housing of the treatment attachment which extends over the treatment attachment is provided with a heating element directly underneath the surface facing away from the data-processing unit in the coupled state, the heating element being coupled to a temperature sensor, wherein the heating element, with the interposition of a control unit, is connected to the electrically conductive interface or, via a Bluetooth connection, to the data-processing unit in such a way that the heating element is supplied with power via one or more rechargeable batteries integrated into the data-processing unit in such a way that the heating element can be heated to a temperature predefined via the control unit.

A cerebral protection system generally includes an array of cold packs, an insulating cover, and optionally a set of trays. The cold pack contains two reactive materials separated by a rupturable membrane. When the first reactive material and the second reactive material are mixed, an endothermic reaction occurs. The system can be used to induce hypothermia in selected regions of the brain when used. The system can be used to treat conditions including concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), heatstroke, cardiac arrest, respiratory arrest, anoxic brain injury, ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.

The present invention relates generally to therapeutic articles comprised of carbonaceous blend textile materials comprising yarns having about 25 to 100 weight % carbonaceous fiber and about 0 to 75 weight % fiber made of polyester, nylon, rayon, lyocell, cellulose, wool, silk, linen, bamboo, m-aramid, p-aramid, modacrylic, novoloid, melamine, regenerated cellulose, polyvinyl chloride, antistatic fiber, poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO), polybenzimidazole (PBI), polysulphonamide (PSA), and combinations thereof, or other fibers not listed that are capable of being made into yarn and textile fabrics that are knit, woven, or nonwoven, and wherein the fabric has a weight from about 3 oz/yd.sup.2 to about 20 oz/yd.sup.2. Also encompassed within this invention is a method for using therapeutic textile articles having carbonaceous blend textile materials of the present disclosure for treatment of humans and animals with developmental neurological disorders, central nervous system disorders, autoimmune disorders, cardiovascular disease, sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, pain management, and diabetes.

The present disclosure provides for a thermoregulatory glove for reducing sleep latency. The thermoregulatory glove includes a gel pocket with a gel pack disposed inside of the gel pocket. A method for producing a convergence in body temperature of a subject includes heating the thermoregulatory glove, placing the heated thermoregulatory glove on a hand of the subject, and cooling the thermoregulatory glove.

A pillow for supporting a user's arm. The pillow includes a body defining a substantially circumferential shape around an aperture. The body includes a substantially flat support base, a first curved arm, and a second curved arm. The substantially flat support base defines a substantially flat geometry extending along a first axis to stably contact a substantially flat surface while a user's arm is inserted through the aperture, the body comprising an open state and a closed state. The first curved arm defines a first contact face with a first fastener. The second curved arm defines a second contact face with a second fastener. The first fastener is releasably fastened to the second fastener.

A meibomian gland manual device allows for a cost-effective device for use in the home by individuals who suffer from dry eye or for daily eye hygiene. The device allows for a safe self-administration to gently express the meibomian gland, the leading underlying cause of chronic dry eye. The semi-circular projection and an affixed moist heated pad, combined with the action of gently applying pressure to the eyelid while following the natural direction of the eyelid, increases the effectiveness of expressing the meibomian gland. The material of the device allows for ease of cleaning for repeated use. Combining the device with either a warm shower or applying a warm compress to the eyes increases the effectiveness of the device to induce a manual extraction of the gland contents.

A device for a medical or cosmetic treatment based on heat is provided. The device includes an impermeable backing layer and an adhesive layer in contact with the backing layer. The device also includes an alkali metal selected from a single, free alkali metal and an alloy alkali metals, the alkali metal in contact with at least a portion of the adhesive layer to define a treatment region. The device also includes a release liner in contact with the adhesive layer and the treatment region. A heat delivery system or kit including the device and a method for its use are also provided.

A heat/thermal treatment is topically applied to skin lesions, skin cancers, metastatic cancer to the skin, other cancers, abnormal pre-cancer dysplasia cells, bacterial, fungal, viral, parasitic and other pathogens on or below the skin or skull. Insect borne diseases such as cutaneous leishmaniasis includes the topical administration of temperature controlled hot air to the skin or skull, or below the skin or skull, or directly to an internal lesion of an infected patient, with a concentrated heat source to an open outlet to raise the skin lesion temperature to a temperature capable of destroying pathogens causing cutaneous leishmaniasis and/or other viral, bacterial, fungal, parasitic or other diseases on or below the skin or skull of a patient. The invention may be administered within the body of the patient if the interior of the body is exposed during surgery.
