A temperature control device for face pads. The temperature control device comprises a Peltier element, at least one receptacle for supporting an eye pad, wherein each of the at least one receptacle is thermally coupled to a warm side or a cold side of the Peltier element, and a fixing device which is thermally decoupled from the Peltier element and which fastens the at least one receptacle to the warm side or the cold side in a form-fitting and/or force-locking manner.

Devices and methods are provided for the treatment of pathological conditions including arrhythmias and trauma using temperature modulation via implantable or worn devices. For example, in one example embodiment this document relates to devices and methods for treating atrial or ventricular fibrillation by cooling the epicardium. The devices and methods can also be used to treat other disorders by applying heating and/or cooling to a patient in a number of different manners.

The invention provides a device (1) for treating skin comprising a housing (100) and a skin treatment head (200) rotatable (around an axis element (500)) associated with said housing (100), wherein the housing (100) encloses an actuator configured to rotate said skin treatment head (200), wherein the skin treatment head (200) comprises one or more brushes (210) associated with a support element (220), wherein the device (1) further comprises a first thermally conductive element (310), wherein the first thermally conductive element (310) is configured at a shortest distance (d1) to the one or more brushes (210) selected from the range of 0-40 mm, and wherein the device (1) comprises a thermoelectric element (300) configured to heat in a first mode said first thermally conductive element (310) to provide a hot surface (311).

The systems and methods in accordance with the principles of the invention can promote correction of an aesthetic or functional defect in a target tissue. A method can include non-invasively applying a cooling agent to a surface of a target tissue; and cooling one or more tissue layers of said target tissue to a predetermined therapeutic temperature, wherein applying the cooling agent is performed such that cryoablation of said one or more layers of the target tissue does not occur. The system can include: a controller and a probe having a distal end configured for non-invasive contact with a surface of a target tissue to cool the target tissue based on treatment parameters.

The present disclosure includes devices, systems and related methods useable for controlling a patient's body temperature by endovascular heat exchange as well as body surface heat exchange.

A device configured to treat a human or animal body part or limb by providing a heating and/or cooling effect in addition to a compressive force. A metallic conductive material is positioned in thermal contact with at least one Peltier cell whereby the heating and cooling effect generated at an active face of the Peltier cell is conducted and distributed over the surface area of the conductive material. The conductive material comprises a significantly greater surface area than the active face of the Peltier cell. A compressive force may be applied to the human or animal body part or limb by the control of a fluid into an expandable sack secured with the conductive material to the body part

A temperature controlled blanket for providing dual warming and cooling zones. The temperature controlled blanket comprises a first layer of material, a second layer of material, and a seam, wherein the seam is disposed along a longitudinal axis of each layer of material, such that the seam defines a first portion and a second portion of the blanket. The first portion and the second portion each contain a panel comprising heating and cooling elements disposed between the first layer of material and second layer of material. The blanket further comprises at least one thermostat operably connected to each panel of the first portion and the second portion and a power source, wherein the at least one thermostat individually controls the heating and cooling elements of each panel. In an alternative embodiment, the first portion and the second portion of the second layer of material are made of two differing fabrics.
