A cryolipolysis device is provided. The cryolipolysis device includes a suction unit including a flange configured to press against a treatment area of a user, and a chamber contiguous with the flange that defines a cavity configured to receive an ice pack. The cryolipolysis device also includes a manual vacuum device configured to produce suction within the chamber of the suction unit to generate a vacuum to maintain the flange against the treatment area of the user.

A hip brace is provided which includes an iliac crest pressure plate, a femur pressure plate, a quadriceps pressure plate, and a bracket to connect the plates. The bracket includes one or more adjustable hinges to adjust positioning of at least one of the iliac crest pressure plate, the femur pressure plate, or the quadriceps pressure plate to correspond with dimensions of a user. The bracket further includes a range of motion restriction dial to control flexion or extension of the hip of the user, where the range of motion restriction is positioned on the bracket to correspond to the femur pressure plate.

An ice pack comprises a plastic sac with an external surface, the plastic sac forming an interior chamber, a substance within the interior chamber capable of absorbing thermal energy, and a coating, which contains one or more antimicrobial agents, on the external surface. The substance can comprise water, including polymer beads mixed with the water. The one or more antimicrobial agents can include a quaternary ammonium ion or salt thereof, such as a silane quaternary ammonium ion or salt thereof. The silane quaternary ammonium ion or salt thereof can be 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium ion, 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium chloride, 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium ion, or 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium chloride. Instead of an ice pack, the apparatus comprising the coating containing one or more antimicrobial agents can be an object that is used around injured people and/or perishable items such as heating pads, coolers, and ice pack carriers.

Temperature variant compression stockings are three-in-one stockings that address needs both in the sports world and the medical field. The temperature variant stockings may help cool the skin while exerting a desired compressive force; another version of the temperature variant stockings may actually retain heat while also exerting a desired compressive force. The stockings are available where the temperature variant components are in contact with the user's skin while the compression yarns are knitted onto the outside of the stocking. A style is also available with alternating strips, with either the cooling yarns or the heat retaining yarns running vertically and parallel to strips of compression yarns. Antimicrobial particles are infused into the cooling or heating yarns to guard again infections.

A cooling system having a multitude of fluidly coupled cells for receiving a coolant is disclosed. The cooling system is characterized in that the cooling system has a flexible cover that covers the multitude of cells, an air gap between the flexible cover and the cells and an air pump for modifying the air gap.

A securing device is shown and describe for positioning on a user's head. The securing device may be used to couple or attach an insert to the user's head in a desired position.

A modular therapeutic eye mask is an apparatus that is used to help the user to sleep naturally and comfortably while receiving various therapeutic benefits. To do so, the apparatus includes a mask body, a support band, and a plurality of therapeutic inserts. The mask body is designed to be comfortably worn around the user's eyes to completely block any light from the surroundings. The mask body is also designed to retain the plurality of therapeutic inserts as well as other mask accessories that help the user to naturally sleep. The support band is designed to comfortably position the mask body and the plurality of therapeutic inserts retained within the mask body against the user's face. The plurality of therapeutic inserts includes several therapeutic inserts that provide various therapeutical benefits when at least one therapeutic insert is used with the mask body while the user is resting.

A process and related assemblies for delivering slush through a tube towards a patient. Obtaining an elongated container partially filled with slush with a port end that has a first port and a second port. Placing the first port in fluid communication with tubing for delivery of slush towards the patient. Placing the second port in fluid communication with a source of gas which may be air. Subjecting the elongated container to automated repetitive movements so that the slush in the partially filled elongated container moves against interior surfaces within the elongated container. Ideally, two different forms of repetitive motion are used to impose complex movement upon the slush within the elongated container. Applying a pressure gradient to cause slush to flow out of the first port towards the patient. The elongated container may be made from a slush bottle with a reversibly engaged cap with the two ports.

A medical system that includes a temperature scanning device configured to identify and locate blood vessels by obtaining a thermal image from a skin surface where blood flowing within blood vessels beneath the skin surface has been altered to define temperature variations of the skin. The system includes a console configured to communicate with the temperature scanning device, the console including processors and logic that, when executed by the processors, causes operations including defining the thermal image. The system may further include a camera, and/or an ultrasound probe. The thermal image may be portrayed on various forms of a display include augmented reality glasses. The thermal image may be overlayed onto a camera image and/or an ultrasound image.
