A percussive therapy device includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor, and at least one of an angular position sensor configured to obtain angular position data of the percussive therapy device and a linear position sensor configured to obtain linear position data of the percussive therapy device. An attachment module is configured to be operably connected with a percussive therapy device and includes a housing, a wireless connection module, and at least one sensor configured to obtain biometric data of the user or obtain information regarding operation of the percussive therapy device.

An external defibrillator system for assisting manual delivery of chest compressions and ventilations to a patient by a rescuer as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes a speaker, and a processor, memory, and associated circuitry coupled to the speaker. The processor is configured to initiate prompting for the chest compressions and the ventilations manually delivered to the patient by the rescuer as CPR, control the speaker to generate first auditory cues for the chest compressions, and control the speaker to generate second auditory cues for the ventilations with a different sound than the first auditory cues for the chest compressions. The first auditory cues and the second auditory cues assist the rescuer in timing the delivery of the chest compressions and the ventilations.

Apparatus and methods relate to a pneumatic compression therapy device configured to suggest content to the patient based on a determined disease state, the content pertaining to suggested changes in lifestyle based on a standard of care. In an illustrative embodiment, the suggested changes may include modifications to treatment location, treatment time, diet, eating habits, or sleeping schedule. Various examples may further sample the patient's health and automatically adjust a treatment parameter within a predetermined parameter range based on a history of measured parameters, such as limb volume, for example. In coordination with the therapeutic treatment, the therapy device may deliver suggested content to guide the patient to make more healthful lifestyle choices to reduce recovery time and improve patient health outcomes.

A defibrillator assesses cardio pulmonary resuscitation carried out on a subject and provides feedback. The defibrillator measures bio signals of the subject, determines when CPR is required and produces a start signal and determines and when CPR is no longer required and produces a stop signal. A measurement system measures compression signals during CPR chest compressions, a CPR assessment system receives the CPR start signal and the CPR stop signal and receives compression signals. The defibrillator uses the compression signals to establish a first CPR performance measurement, set a performance baseline of the person equal to the first CPR performance measurement of the person, compare the further CPR performance measurement of the person with the CPR performance baseline of the person, produce a feedback signal and set the CPR performance baseline of the person equal to the further CPR performance measurement of the person and return to earlier operations.

Systems and methods for generating neuroprotective and cardioprotective nutrition programs are described herein. These neuroprotective and cardioprotective nutrition programs are especially applicable for patients at risk of cardiac arrest (e.g. due to hypoxia or ischemia of the brain or other body parts). The programs may feature caloric restriction, for example, short-term caloric restriction. The programs may be generated or iteratively modified based on the hemodynamic and metabolic state of the patient's brain, limbs, or other tissues or organs. Dynamic feedback about the patient's hemodynamic and metabolic state may be provided by techniques including, but not limited to, optical technology for quantitatively and noninvasively measuring blood flow, oxygenation, metabolic rate of oxygen, and perfusion/metabolism ratio in the brain, limbs, or other tissues or organs. The systems described herein may also induce spreading depolarization and repolarization at specific times during or after cardiac arrest based on the patient's cerebral metabolic state.

A method for protecting healthcare information associated with an individual may include receiving at least a first electronic medical record associated with the individual and generating a patient identifier associated with the individual. The method may also include generating, using the patient identifier and at least a portion of the first electronic medical record, at least one protected electronic medical record corresponding to the first electronic medical record. The patient identifier may be associated with at least one characteristic of the individual. The method may also include providing, at least at a healthcare provider interface, at least one of the patient identifier and at least a portion of the at least one protected electronic medical record.

A percussive therapy device includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, and a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. A massage attachment is removably received on a distal end of the push rod assembly at a first location. The percussive therapy device also includes an attachment module associated with the housing of the percussive therapy device at a second location. The second location is different than the first location. The attachment module is configured to provide an active effect.

A computer-implemented method including receiving, at a computing device, a first treatment plan designed to treat a cardiovascular health issue of a user. The first treatment plan comprises at least two exercise sessions that, based on the cardiovascular health issue, enable the user to perform an exercise at different exertion levels. While the user uses a treatment apparatus to perform the first treatment plan for the user, the computing device receives cardiovascular data from one or more sensors configured to measure the cardiovascular data associated with the user, and transmits the cardiovascular data. Wherein a machine learning model is used to generate a second treatment plan. The second treatment plan modifies at least one exertion level, and the modification is based on a standardized measure comprising perceived exertion, the cardiovascular data, and the cardiovascular health issue of the user. The method includes receiving the second treatment plan.

A medical device of the type used for assisting a user in manually delivering repetitive therapy to a patient (e.g., chest compressions or ventilations in cardiac resuscitation), the device comprising a feedback device configured to generate feedback cues to assist the user in timing the delivery of the repetitive therapy, at least one sensor or circuit element configured to detect actual delivery times, at which the user actually delivers the repetitive therapy, and a processor, memory, and associated circuitry configured to compare the actual delivery times to information representative of desired delivery times to determine cue times at which the feedback cues are generated by the feedback device.

A lower-leg exoskeleton that includes an actuator configured to be worn about a portion a leg of a user that is below the knee of the user; and a foot structure coupled to a first actuator end of the actuator, the foot structure configured to surround a portion of the foot of the user. The foot structure includes one or more sidewalls configured to extend around the foot of the user and including one or more sidewall attachment points for connecting to a base portion, and a base portion configured to reside at a base of the foot of the user and including one or more base attachment points coupling with the one or more sidewall attachment points.
