PNEUMATIC COMPRESSION DEVICE WITH VIBRATION AND TEMPERATURE CONTROL
A pneumatic compression assembly that includes a sleeve having an outer layer and an inner layer that defines a sleeve interior configured to receive a body part of a user, and at least a first vibration assembly configured to provide vibration to the body part of the user. A plurality of inflatable compartments are arranged longitudinally along the sleeve between the inner layer and the outer layer. The first vibration assembly includes a plurality of vibration motors positioned between the inner layer and the outer layer of the sleeve.
Electrically-heatable plaster
An electrically-heatable plaster that comprises a self-adhesive skin contact layer, an electrically-conductive textile fabric in which electrically-conductive fibres are in contact with one another, as a heating element, and optionally at least one active substance, as well as to a method for production and the use of same for local heat therapy and/or transdermal application of active substances.
Cooling system and method for a prosthetic socket
A prosthetic socket cooling system and method includes a thermally conductive heat spreader including a curved shaped portion configured to maximize contact with a residual limb of a user. A heat extraction subsystem is coupled through a wall of the prosthetic socket and to the thermally conductive heat spreader and is configured to maintain a desired temperature inside the prosthetic socket.
Nasal mucosa heating and occlusion eyewear
The instant invention provides an eyewear piece having a nasal mucosa heating and occlusion apparatus. The eyewear piece includes a bridge extending substantially across the wearer's face and having flexible joints at opposite ends thereof to attach temples, which extends over the ears to keep the eyewear on the wearer's face. The bridge includes a housing and depending therefrom is a nasal frame having nasal passageways to provide heat into the nasal cavity. It is contemplated that other therapeutic remedies are offered to the wearer.
COMBINATION TREATMENT SYSTEMS
Controllers for dry eye treatment apparatus and methods are described herein which generally comprise a patch or strip affixed to the skin of the upper and/or lower eyelids to deliver heat to the one or more meibomian glands contained within the underlying skin. The treatment strip or strips include one or more strips configured to adhere to an underlying region of skin in proximity to one or both eyes of a subject such that the one or more strips allow for the subject to blink naturally without restriction from the one or more patches. A controller is in communication with the one or more strips and is programmable to monitor a temperature of the one or more strips to provide a treatment therapy above a threshold temperature. Additionally forceps for mechanically expressing the Meibomian glands may be included with the strips and/or controller.
A DEVICE FOR ALLEVIATING ITCHING
A device (100) for alleviating itching is described. The device (100) includes a body (102) and a plurality of convex protrusions (106) being mounted on the body. In use, the plurality of convex protrusions (106) provides a plurality of contact points on a user's skin.
NOVEL MASSAGE GUN
The present disclosure provides a novel massage gun, relates to the technical field of massage devices, and solves the technical problem that a wire between a handle and a massage head of the massage gun breaks easily when the massage gun moves at a high speed. The novel massage gun includes a gun body, a massage head arranged on the gun body, an auxiliary physiotherapy assembly arranged in the massage head, a main circuit board arranged in the gun body, and a connecting cable electrically connected to the auxiliary physiotherapy assembly and the main circuit board, where the connecting cable is made of a conductive wire resistant to high-speed bending. In the present disclosure, the connecting cable electrically connected to the auxiliary physiotherapy assembly in the massage head is made of the conductive wire resistant to high-speed bending, which solves the problem that the connecting cable breaks easily when the massage gun performs high-speed piston movement. Because the connecting cable does not break easily, electrical connection can be maintained, thereby prolonging the service life of the massage gun, and reducing use costs.
HEATING APPARATUS FOR AN ORTHOTIC DEVICE
An orthotic device includes an orthotic appliance formed by at least two laminate layers and a heating apparatus including a heating element embedded between the at least two layers of the orthotic appliance. The heating apparatus further includes a power supply operatively coupled to the heating element. The heating element selectively heats the orthotic appliance. The heating element includes a wireless receiving coil. The power supply includes a wireless charging transceiver such that when power is supplied to the wireless charging transceiver, a current is induced within the wireless receiving coil to supply power to the heating element.
Devices for applying a topical treatment
A device comprising a housing having a handle end and a treatment end. The treatment end is configured to provide an antimicrobial treatment and a heat treatment. The treatment end comprises an applicator having an applicator surface for providing at least the heat treatment. The device includes a heat generation unit configured to heat the applicator surface in use, a source of antimicrobial agent, and a control unit operatively connected to at least the heat generation unit for controlling the heat generation unit. The device can be a hand-held device and used to apply topical treatment to a treatment area of a subject.
