Disclosed herein are targeted temperature management (“TTM”) systems, pads, and methods thereof for treating burn wounds. A method of a system for TTM can include a pad-connecting step, a pad-placing step, and a fluid-circulating step. The pad-connecting step can include connecting an inlet and an outlet of a pad to a hydraulic system of a control module. The pad can include a multilayered pad body having a conduit layer configured to convey a temperature-controlled fluid provided by the control module. The pad-placing step can include placing the pad on a wounded portion of a patient's body with a sterile, thermally conductive wound-healing layer of the pad body in contact with a burn wound of the wounded portion of the patient's body. The fluid-circulating step can include circulating the temperature-controlled fluid through the conduit layer to cool the wounded portion of the patient's body, thereby treating the wound to promote healing.

A catheter is disclosed comprising a catheter shaft including a proximal end and a distal end. A flexible framework can be connected to the distal end of the catheter shaft, wherein the flexible framework includes a plurality of heating electrodes and a temperature sensor. The plurality of heating electrodes can be configured to be heated to a first temperature, the first temperature being lower than which radio frequency ablation is performed. The plurality of heating electrodes can be configured to be heated to a second temperature, the second temperature being a temperature at which radio frequency ablation is performed.

The Itch Blower is hand held, have a way to determine the distance from the skin. It blows hot air with the right temperature for eliminating the skin itching. Most importantly, it can sense the skin temperature remotely and shut off the heating automatically so to avoid burning. This will guarantee a smooth approval from the FDA and a great success in commercialization. The device eliminates skin itching completely in just seconds, no matter how bad the itching is, and keeps the itching away for up to 24 hours, and when the itching comes back, patients can use the device to quickly blow away the itching again, so to stay itching free. It can also clear up acne and eczema for some patients.

A thermogenic emergency airway management device configured to prevent or treat hypothermia in a patient. The device may be configured to receive inlet air and modify one or more properties of the inlet air to output air at a temperature and/or humidity associated with the prevention and/or treatment of hypothermia. In an embodiment, the device may receive input via a user interface to determine a temperature and/or humidity associated with the air to be output to the patient. In an embodiment, the input may additionally include an amount of air to be output to the patient. In such an embodiment, the device may be configured to cause the amount of air to be output to the patient to prevent and/or treat hypothermia.

A pediatric magnetic resonance (MRI) system and sub-system are provided. The pediatric MRI system includes a magnet-gradient assembly, an RF shield-body coil assembly and a pediatric MRI sub-system. The pediatric MRI sub-system includes an infant warmer or isolette having a patient section for accommodating a patient. The infant warmer is positionable relative to the magnet-gradient-body coil assembly of the pediatric MRI system. The pediatric MRI sub-system also includes a warming mattress arranged within the patient section of the infant warmer. The infant warming mattress includes an interior space filled at least partially with a host medium and a conduction heating system at least partially arranged in the interior space to conduct heat to the interior space of the infant warming mattress. The pediatric MRI system also includes at least one local radio frequency (RF) coil that is positionable within the patient section of the infant warmer.

The invention provides fluid warming apparatus comprising: a fan; a heater, the fan and the heater being configured to generate a heated fluid flow having a principle flow direction and an inhomogeneous temperature distribution in a distribution direction perpendicular to the said principle flow direction; and a plurality of temperature sensors offset from each other in the said distribution direction, wherein at least two of the temperature sensors are configured to measure temperatures of respective portions of the heated fluid flow having different temperatures.

An infant incubator heat control device includes a temperature-detecting device providing chamber interior and incubator heater temperature measured values. A first mode of operation has an interior temperature set value, a temperature of the heater set value is calculated as a function of the interior temperature set value and of the chamber interior temperature measured value. A controlled variable is calculated for the heater as a function of the temperature of the heater set value and of the heater measured value. A second mode of operation calculates a temperature of the heater set value independently of the chamber interior temperature measured value. A controlled variable is calculated for the heater as a function of the set value for the temperature of the heater and of the heater temperature measured value.

Methods, devices and systems for improving sleep (including reducing sleep onset and maintenance of sleep duration), enhancing, or increasing sleep, including (but not limited to) treating sleeping disorders such as insomnia.

The dry-immersion bed of the present invention is suitable for intensive care units (ICUs) and fulfills the function of providing treatment for diseases such as capillary leak syndrome. The dry immersion bed fulfills the function of recovering cardiovascular physiology by normalizing the systemic distribution of water, albumin and electrolytes, and improving lymphatic drainage, venous return, cardiac output, cell metabolism and immunity.

A scraping plate is provided. The scraping plate includes a main body, a storage chamber for storing a liquid medicine and an electric heater for heating the liquid medicine. One end of the main body is provided with a scraping blade, and the other end opposite to the scraping blade is provided with a grip portion. Both the storage chamber and the electric heater are provided inside the main body. A surface of the scraping blade is provided with at least one liquid medicine outlet, wherein each liquid medicine outlet is communicated with the storage chamber.
