Systems, devices, components and methods for triggering or inducing resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of a patient
Various embodiments of systems, devices, components, and methods for providing external therapeutic vibration stimulation to a patient are disclosed and described. Therapeutic vibration stimulation is provided to at least one location on or adjacent to a patient's skin (such as through clothing or a layer disposed next to the patient's skin), and is configured to trigger or induce resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of the patient. Inducing such resonance can aid in training autonomic reflexes and improve their functioning.
MULTI-MODE MASSAGE DEVICE USING BIOFEEDBACK
A multi-mode personal massaging including a sensor unit configured to detect one or more biofeedback signals from a user of a personal massaging device or a partner is disclosed. The system can further include a controller configured to analyze the one or more biofeedback signals, and determine one or more corresponding and modifiable outputs stored in a memory, based on the one or more biofeedback signals. The system can further include a massaging unit configured to output the one or more outputs determined by the controller, based on the one or more biofeedback signals.
Ventilation
There is provided a method of controlling a mechanical ventilator. The method may include the steps of receiving a measurement of transthoracic impedance of a patient obtained during chest compressions, determining a timing for a mechanical ventilator to provide a ventilation based on the measurement of transthoracic impedance, and sending a signal to control the mechanical ventilator based on the determined timing. There is also provided an apparatus for performing the method.
Data acquisition and analysis of human sexual response using a personal massaging device
Methods and systems are disclosed for capturing sensor data collected by a personal massaging device with associated sensors, analyzing the data, determining biofeedback data based on the sensor data, and according to some embodiments generating a sexual response profile based on the biofeedback data and a model of human sexual response. Data may be collected and analyzed for a number of uses, including but not limited to: (1) studying human sexual response, (2) adjusting outputs of the personal massaging device based on preset conditions, (3) treating sexual dysfunction conditions, and (4) improving sexual experiences.
Sexual aid device feedback methods and apparatus
An example sexual aid apparatus is disclosed. In an embodiment, the sexual aid apparatus includes an electro-mechanical device configured to operate according to a control pattern to facilitate the achievement of an orgasm within a user during a session and transmit a device state. The apparatus also includes a sensor configured to measure physiological data of a user during use of the electro-mechanical device. The apparatus further includes a control engine configured to receive the physiological data from the sensor and the device state from the electro-mechanical device and determine an adjustment to the control pattern based on the physiological data from the sensor and the device state. The control engine is also configured to transmit signals related to the adjusted control pattern to the electro-mechanical device causing the electro-mechanical device to operate according to the adjusted control pattern.
FLUID SKIN TREATMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Devices and methods for dermatology and more particularly to fluid enhanced skin treatment system for skin rejuvenation that can use an abrasive probe for removing epidermal layers while contemporaneously providing for the infusion of therapeutic fluids into the skin.
DEVICES AND METHODS FOR DELIVERING MECHANICAL STIMULATION TO NERVE, MECHANORECEPTOR, AND CELL TARGETS
Presented herein are systems, methods, and devices that provide for stimulation of nerves and/or targets such as mechanoreceptors, tissue regions, mechanoresponsive proteins, and vascular targets through generation and delivery of mechanical vibrational waves. In certain embodiments, the approaches described herein utilize a stimulation device (e.g., a wearable device) for generation and delivery of the mechanical vibrational waves. As described herein, the delivered vibrational waves can be tailored based on particular targets (e.g., nerves, mechanoreceptors, vascular targets, tissue regions) to stimulate and/or to elicited particular desired responses in a subject.
Frequency analysis feedback systems and methods
A health status modulator analyzes frequencies emitted by a person to select and implement improvement frequencies at the person. The health status modulator detects frequency information generated at the person, for example a voice sample or a vibrational frequency, and determines which significant frequencies exist within that sample. The modulator could then seek to modify the person's state my implementing alternative frequencies that reinforce detected ideal frequencies, introduce missing ideal frequencies, or counter and eliminate negative frequencies.
HAPTIC ACTUATORS AND THEIR METHODS OF USE
Methods of operating a haptic actuator to apply physical and/or thermal sensations to a user to provide subjective symptom relief to a user are described. In some embodiments, a haptic actuator may be automatically activated when one or more detected user states are compared to one or more predetermined activation parameters to determine the user is experiencing an episode related to a condition of the user. In another embodiment, one or more operating parameters of a haptic actuator may be updated if the haptic actuator did not provided a desired amount of subjective symptom relief to a user during use. In yet another embodiment, a haptic actuator may create an event log based on activation events when the haptic actuator is used to provide symptom relief for a condition of the user.
STIMULATION DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE
The disclosure provides for a device and method for vibrational, electrical, and magnetic therapy. The device may include a main controller board, a power source, a power switch harness connected to the power source, a vibration module comprising two to more motors capable of generating a multidirectional mechanical vibration, and an input controller. The device may further produce a micro-electrical current and a micro-magnetic field.
