The garment having a shell portion configured to form a cavity surrounding this anatomical region allowing the wearer the ability to place a fluid into an interior space of the shell. The garment including a gasketing means and securing means coupled to the shell portion and configured to aid in providing a watertight or semi-watertight seal and securing the device in proper placement on the wearer.

A breast-comforting device, including a plurality of comforting members, including a left pad to receive at least a portion of a first breast of a user, the left pad including a heating unit disposed within at least a portion of the left pad to disperse heat on at least a portion of an inner surface of the left pad, and a pressure dissemination unit disposed within at least a portion of the left pad to provide a pressured sensation to at least a portion of the first breast, and a right pad to receive at least a portion of a second breast of the user, the right pad including another heating unit disposed within at least a portion of the right pad to disperse heat on at least a portion of an inner surface of the right pad, and another pressure dissemination unit disposed within at least a portion of the right pad to provide a pressured sensation to at least a portion of the second breast, and an input unit connected to the plurality of comforting members to manipulate at least one of the plurality of comforting members.

A massage garment apparatus for automatically receiving massages includes a garment having a plurality of pockets. Each pocket has a pocket opening and a closure mechanism. A plurality of massage pads is each selectively engageable within the plurality of pockets. Each massage pad comprises a pad body. An array of vibrators is coupled within the pad body. A microprocessor is coupled within the pad body and is in operational communication with the array of vibrators. A battery is coupled within the pad body and is in operational communication with the array of vibrators and the microprocessor. A charge port is coupled to the pad edge and is in operational communication with the battery. A receiver is coupled within the pad body and is in operational communication with the array of vibrators, the microprocessor, and the battery. The receiver is configured to communicate with a smartphone.

Compression garments may include mitts and tightening apparatus to don, or put on, such compression garments. The mitts may be configured to receive a user's hand such that the user can move one or more portions of the garments using the mitts. The tightening apparatus may allow a user to selectively tighten or loosen the garments about the user's body portions. Once donned, the compression garments may apply pressure to one or more regions of the user's body such as, e.g., arm regions, shoulder regions, torso regions, and neck regions.

A device for assisting CPR comprising a base, a lever arm having first and second ends, and a middle portion, one or more chest pads affixed to said middle portion of said lever arm, a plurality of anchor points set into said base, and a pair of straps connecting said anchor points to said first end of lever arm, creating a fulcrum at said first end; wherein when in use a user grips said lever arm at said second end.

The present invention relates to a smart wearable breast pumping machine including: a suction part attached to a user's breast; a connector connected to the suction part to introduce breast milk pumped by means of a breast pumping pressure and coupled to a breast milk container; and a breast pumping part coupled to the suction part to accommodate the connector and having a breast pump adapted to apply the breast pumping pressure to the suction part and a controller adapted to control operations of the breast pump by means of control commands.

The present invention relates to a canister, a suction apparatus and a tissue expansion apparatus comprising same, and provides, according to one aspect of the present invention, a suction apparatus comprising: a housing having an inlet and an outlet; a pump disposed in the housing and suctioning air flowing in via the inlet; a first flow line for connecting the inlet and an inflow port of the pump; a second flow line for connecting an outflow port of the pump and outside air; a control valve disposed in the housing and provided with a first port connected to the first flow line, and a second port connected to the second flow line; a battery disposed in the housing and supplying power to the pump; and a control unit for controlling the pump and the control valve.

A system for hands-free nursing and breast pumping includes a breast compression device with a plurality of thermoformed fluid bladders designed to fit adjustably against each breast and inflate and deflate with minimal power requirements. The compression device and its controller fit inside of a nursing garment designed to receive the device and controller for optimal compression. The nursing garment and the compression device have openings over the nipples so that a breast pump flange can be inserted through them and used in a typical manner for the extraction of breast milk, thus increasing the amount of milk expressed.
