Disclosed herein are devices and systems that conduct temperature-controlled air through one or more enclosed chambers that are placed adjacent to a patient to help control the patient's temperature without blowing air directly on the patient. In some embodiments, the enclosed chamber has an air inlet and an air outlet and a defined air flow pathway therebetween. Air exiting the device can be directed away from the patient. The devices can include a crush-resistant but flexible air-flow layer of material inside the enclosure that allows air flow even when a patient is laying on the device. A cushioning layer can also be included overlaying the air-flow layer. The flowing air can be any desired temperature to help warm or cool a patient. The patient can be a human or animal, for example.

Provided is a multilayer film for a disposable body warmer outer bag, and a disposable body warmer, which are excellent in gas barrier property that inhibits permeation of oxygen gas, water vapor and the like, which can allow swelling due to hydrogen gas generated during a storage period to be prevented, and which are excellent in seal strength, impact resistance and weather resistance. A disposable body warmer outer bag formed from a multilayer film comprising a first barrier layer (10) and a second barrier layer (20), wherein the first barrier layer (10) and the second barrier layer (20) consist of a polyvinylidene chloride layer (12) or a polyvinylidene chloride layer (22) obtained by coating at least one surface (upper portion in FIG. 1) of a heat-resistant resin substrate (11) or a heat-resistant resin substrate (21) with polyvinylidene chloride.

A thermal pad is adapted to be placed in physical contact with a patient and to receive temperature controlled fluid from a thermal control unit. The temperature controlled fluid circulates through the thermal pad and controls the patient's temperature. The thermal pad includes first and second sheets that are sealed together about their periphery to define a fluid chamber there between. A fluid inlet and fluid outlet are fluidly coupled to the fluid chamber. In some embodiments, a filter sheet is sandwiched between the first and second sheets and arranged such that fluid entering the fluid inlet must pass through the filter sheet before exiting out of the fluid outlet. A plurality of bonds may be included that seal the first and second sheets together at a plurality of locations. In some embodiments, a non-sheet filter is positioned within the fluid chamber and filters the circulating fluid.

An equine thermal therapy overleg device that encircles a pastern of a subject horse and provides thermal therapy to the subject horse. The may include a pastern dual layer component, a distal phalanx cover and a distal phalanx slipper. The arrangement of the pastern dual layer component, a distal phalanx cover and a distal phalanx slipper allow for free movement of the subject horse and for a thermal fluid to contain ice and prevent the ice from becoming lodged around the subject horse hoof.

A dental dressing to promote hemostasis, reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and lower incidence of infection associated with dental surgical procedures. The dressing comprises a three-dimensional absorbent matrix to assist in the removal of exudate associated with iatrogenic trauma, and embedded cannabinoid-infused therapeutic phytoconstituents to provide substantially localized therapy to the surgical site. The cannabinoid-infused therapeutic phytoconstituents are substantially contained within a porous dressing pouch shapeable to substantially engage the iatrogenic trauma while fitting generally over and about the surgical site. At least part of the dressing matrix substantially conforms to the surgical site, thereby engaging the therapeutic phytoconstituents intimately with the iatrogenic trauma.

A tourniquet apparatus (10) comprises at least two expandable members (21,22) configured for applying pressure on a limb of a subject; and actuating means (143,144) for actuating the at least two expandable members (21,22), wherein the actuating means (143,144) are configured to actuate each expandable member independently and/or selectively. There is also provided a limb-cooling apparatus (200) comprising an inner stretchable layer (210) configured to engage and/or contact a limb of a subject; an outer layer (220) at least partially attached to the inner layer (210); and a cooling system (240) configured to supply a cooling medium (250) between the inner layer (210) and the outer layer (220).

Embodiments provide a moldable warming device, including a heating disc; a first harmonic resonance frequency stimulation vibration generator (RFSVG); a coupling device; a mask configured to hold the heating disc, the first harmonic RFSVG, and the coupling device for use in parallel utility; and a sensor array, the sensor array configured to determine tuning parameters of a vibration and heating profile of a user's individual eyelid, periorbital, and nasal three-dimensional anatomy and surface topography. According to at least one embodiment, the moldable warming device is configured to provide an eyelid surface and periorbital structures with therapeutic warmth, and the first harmonic RFSVG is configured to provide tuned harmonic resonance or non-resonance frequency stimulation vibration over the user's nasal bridge area through the user's nasal bone such that nasal sensory nerves are stimulated to induce tear production reflex in the user's lacrimal function unit.
