11596193 · 2023-03-07 · ·

The present invention relates generally to a device and a method that maintains a patient's body temperature during surgical exposure and, more specifically, to a surgical, insulative cap that forms a viewing window and is used in conjunction with a medical temperature trend indicator. The cap is contoured to the patient's head. The instant abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

TREATMENT APPARATUS FOR REMOVING HEAT FROM SUBCUTANEOUS LIPID-RICH CELLS AND MASSAGING TISSUE
20230065550 · 2023-03-02 ·

A treatment device for removing heat from subcutaneous lipid-rich cells of a subject having an actuator that provides mechanical energy to the tissue. The mechanical energy provided may include a vibratory component that can range between low and ultra-high frequencies, and such energy may include various combinations of two or more frequencies tailored to produce the desired effect on the subcutaneous tissue. Disruption of adipose tissue cooled by an external treatment device may be enhanced by applying mechanical energy to cooled tissue. Furthermore, such mechanical energy may impart a vibratory effect, a massage effect, a pulsatile effect, or combinations thereof on the tissue.

UNIVERSAL WRAP FOR SECURING A THERMAL PACK
20230157866 · 2023-05-25 ·

A system and method for providing a universal wrap that can apply a thermal pack to many different regions of a patient's body. The universal wrap is provided in a standardized form. The medical provider is provided with options to modify the standardized form in order to adapt the wrap to many different applications.

INTELLIGENT CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND INTELLIGENT WEARABLE DEVICE

This application provides an intelligent control apparatus, including: a control circuit and a detection and heating circuit. The detection and heating circuit includes a detection and heating material. When the detection heating material works in a detection mode, the detection and heating circuit obtains a bioelectric signal of a user by using the detection and heating material. The control circuit instructs, according to the bioelectric signal, the detection heating circuit to switch a working mode of the detection and heating material to a heating mode; and instructs the detection and heating circuit to determine heating duration and/or a heating temperature of the detecting and heating material. The apparatus may be used in the field of artificial intelligence. Through control of the control circuit, the detection heating material can have both detection and heating functions. Intelligent perception of a state of the user is implemented by detecting of the bioelectric signal.

Patient temperature and blood flow management

Systems for maintaining normothermia in a patient via compression and warming are disclosed and include a first warming element configured to apply warming to the popliteal fossa, a second warming element configured to apply warming to the sole of the foot, and a compression element configured to apply compression to the calf.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED AND VIBRATING THERAPEUTIC GARMENT

A temperature controllable wrap assembly that includes a wrap portion configured to be worn around a user’s body part, and at least a first temperature control module positioned on the wrap portion. The first temperature control module includes a housing, a controllable temperature element, a spreader member and at least a first finger spreader pivotably attached to the spreader member. The lower surface of the spreader member is positioned to contact the user’s body part. The controllable temperature element is configured to transfer thermal energy to an upper surface of the spreader member, and the spreader member is configured to conduct thermal energy to the first finger spreader.

Apparatus and method for ice water immersion therapy

An emergency management system having an ice water immersion bag capable of rapidly cooling an overheated individual body through its combination of elements, apertures, and capacity. An overheated individual is placed within the ice immersion bag, yet there body may still be accessed in the event of a medical emergency through the use of one of the many openings containing throughout the bag. The openings otherwise remain sealed and waterproof to prevent the ice water from escaping the bag, further effectuating ice water immersion to rapidly cool the overheated individual.

Added or Alternate Thermal Contact Pad Adhesion

A medical pad for exchanging thermal energy between a targeted temperature management (TTM) fluid and a patient. The medical pad includes a fluid containing layer configured for circulation of a TTM fluid therein. The pad may further include a bistable stiffening structure configured to transition between a first stable shape and a second stable shape. The pad may further include a thermally-conductive compressible foam layer disposed between the fluid containing layer and a patient contact side of the pad. a self-adhering stretchable band configured to secure the pad to the patient. The pad may further include a semi-permeable layer disposed between an underside of the fluid containing layer and a hydrogel layer so that the TTM fluid may migrate from the fluid containing layer to the hydrogel layer.

EYE MASSAGING DEVICE
20170340478 · 2017-11-30 ·

An eye massaging device comprises a main body, a water bag, a control unit, a cover, and a fixing ring. The temperature of the circulating water tank may be sensed by a thermal sensor and then feedback the temperature signal to a microprocessor. The microprocessor may control to drive a heating member to increase temperature and stop increasing temperature so as to effectively control the operation temperature and prevent from transient blindness resulting from being not able to effectively control the temperature.
