Therapeutic brain cooling system and spinal cord cooling system
09770360 · 2017-09-26 ·

This disclosure relates to a brain cooling and spinal cord cooling system, device or mechanism for use in military helmets, and in an adapted format in non-military helmets. The system is comprised of an inflatable pad, or a set of interconnected pads, attached to the interior surface of the helmet, together with a series of valves that allow cooling gases to be delivered from a high pressure canister. The use of different cooling gases permits the achievement and maintenance of cooling of the brain for 24 to 96 hours at a mild (36° C.) or moderate (33° C.-35° C.) brain hypothermia, which is 1.5° C.-4.5° C. below the core temperature.

WEARABLE APPARATUS FOR COOLING
20170319380 · 2017-11-09 ·

A portable cooling device with a wristband (17) and a cooler arranged on the wristband (17), in which the cooler is designed as an air flow generator (1) for an airflow directed in an exhaust direction of the cooler (1), wherein the airflow generator (1) is arranged in a holder (11) which is fastened or formed to the wristband (17) and which at least has a extension (10) protruding in the exhaust direction, said extension (10) at least located sectionally within the airflow or enclosing the airflow at least sectionally. The invention thus provides a portable cooling device which can be designed to be extremely small and compact and can thus be worn inconspicuously. The device according to the invention is also robust and has a lower power consumption compared to conventional devices.

WIRELESS-CONTROLLED THERAPEUTIC WARMING EYE WEAR DEVICE
20170266035 · 2017-09-21 ·

A therapeutic eye mask having a wireless temperature and duration controller is disclosed. The therapeutic eye mask comprises an eye mask configured to fit over an user's face, a heater and temperature sensor attached to the eye mask configured to heat and sense a temperature, and a wireless thermal controller coupled to the heater and temperature sensor configured to control the heater and temperature sensor to a particular temperature in response to a heat setting on the wireless temperature and duration controller. Such an arrangement allows a user to operate the wireless temperature and duration controller to set the heater and temperature sensor so as to achieve therapeutic warmth and flexible regulation of the temperature and long keeping the temperature constant to the therapeutic eye mask.

Hemostasis wound healing device for dynamic elastic injury site
09757271 · 2017-09-12 ·

A topical cooling compressive hemostasis wound healing device and methods thereof for affecting a percutaneous access site wound or an acute surgical wound. The device delivers and transports cooling to affect and control vasculature and musculoskeletal motions surrounding the injury site during the blood coagulation, hemostasis, and wound healing phases. The device has a viscoelastic and thermally conductive surface to deliver and transport an adjustable compressive pressure to resist outward blood flow, thus improving patient safety and clinical outcomes. The device is anatomically conforming and treats not only the specific injury site, but also its surrounding anatomical structures together as means to prevent unpredictable delayed hemostasis breach. The device provides comfort to the patient by allowing mobility upon wound healing, thus reducing back pain and strain resulting from being in a constrained position for a prolonged period of time which is known to cause additional medical events. The device reduces pain, inflammation, swelling, and scar formation on the injury site of a patient and promotes hemostasis, sustains hemostasis, and improves overall wound healing quality.
