20220226162 · 2022-07-21 ·

A negative pressure wound treatment system comprising a bandage portion and a negative pressure portion. The bandage portion includes a dressing portion in contact with a wound and a sealing layer positioned in contact with the dressing portion. The sealing layer includes an adhesive creating a seal around the wound. The negative pressure portion is in fluid communication with the bandage portion and includes a first valve and a second valve. The first valve is in fluid communication with the bandage portion and the negative pressure portion. The second valve is in fluid communication with the negative pressure portion and the surrounding environment. The negative pressure wound treatment system is configured to provide negative pressure to an area sealed by the bandage portion upon the actuation of the negative pressure portion. The negative pressure portion is configured to be actuated by compressing the negative pressure portion while walking.

Diagnostic method, method for validation of diagnostic method, and treatment method

In a method for diagnosing and treating a patient having lesions in both arteries of left and right lower limbs. By determining that a lesion distal to an aortailiac bifurcation is to be treated first, catheters and an operation time can be reduced. The lesion to be treated first can be on a priority basis based on diagnostic data, deciding that a lesion proximal to the bifurcation is to be treated next, and then treating the lesions substantially continuously.

NONINVASIVE DETECTION AND/OR TREATMENT OF MEDICAL CONDITIONS

Noninvasive treatment (e.g., neuromodulation) can be achieved using vibrational energy applied via one or more wearable devices. A noninvasive treatment device includes a vibrational actuator disposed within a housing that can be secured to a user's body at or adjacent a treatment site. One or more sensors can collect physiological data before, during, or after application of vibrational energy to monitor a user's condition. Machine learning or other suitable approaches can be used to analyze sensor data to detect medical conditions and/or to effect treatment of medical conditions using devices as described herein.

Skin Protection Device
20220257915 · 2022-08-18 ·

The present invention relates to a skin protection device primarily comprised of a body with a top surface and a bottom surface, and a backing sheet. The body is preferably flexible and is manufactured from a biodegradable, waterproof, and UV-resistant/UV-blocking material that is plastic, fabric, or latex-based. In addition, the body may be infused with a plurality of zinc particles/compounds to protect against sun/UV damage and may have differing levels of SPF protection. The body is preferably colored to resemble the skin shade or tone of the user and has an adhesive bottom surface that can adhere to a user's skin. The body may be appropriately shaped in any conventional or non-conventional shape that may or may not mimic the shape of the body part it is being applied to.
