Pulmonary expansion therapy (PXT) devices
10765591 · 2020-09-08 · ·

A pulmonary expansion therapy (PXT) device may be a handheld device that covers specific lung fields and may generate negative pressure fields locally. The device also may provide vibratory/percussion therapy for airway clearance. The PXT may generate a localized negative pressure field non-invasively to the exterior of the chest wall, thereby increasing the functional residual capacity in underlying lung fields. As a result, increased ventilation and perfusion to the targeted internal lung field may be achieved by creating a decrease in the external barometric pressure relative to the more positive intrinsic airway pressures. The PXT device also may improve lung compliance by enabling a medical professional to grab and elevate the chest wall to compensate for the dysfunction of the respiratory musculature responsible for lifting the chest wall. In some embodiments, once a targeted functional residual capacity (FRC) has been established, vibration or percussion may be applied.

Automated compression nursing and pumping system

A system for hands-free nursing and breast pumping includes a breast compression device with a plurality of thermoformed fluid bladders designed to fit adjustably against each breast and inflate and deflate with minimal power requirements. The compression device and its controller fit inside of a nursing garment designed to receive the device and controller for optimal compression. The nursing garment and the compression device have openings over the nipples so that a breast pump flange can be inserted through them and used in a typical manner for the extraction of breast milk, thus increasing the amount of milk expressed.

MASSAGING DEVICE, PROVIDED WITH COOLING AND HEATING SYSTEM, FOR TREATING MUSCLE PAIN AND INFLAMMATION
20200246520 · 2020-08-06 ·

Provided is a massaging device including: a housing; an adsorption unit mounted in the housing and adsorbed on the skin so as to be moved along the skin; and a cooling and heating system installed in the adsorption unit to cool or heat the adsorption unit thereby allowing cold and hot thermal energies to directly penetrate into the skin through the adsorption unit contacting the skin. Further, the cold and hot thermal energies generated in the cooling and heating system can act directly on the skin through the adsorption unit, so that the cold and hot thermal energies penetrate deeply into the skin, thereby removing the waste materials, harmful substances and fatigue substances accumulated in the skin.

SELF-BIASED MASSAGE DEVICE ACCESSORY
20200230017 · 2020-07-23 ·

Aspects of the disclosure provide a massage device accessory that can be used to generate a reciprocating motion for a massage device that is coupled with the massage device accessory. The massage device accessory may be a single-piece of substantially rigid material that has a L-shaped bend and provides for elastic deformation between a relaxed first position and a deformed second position. The accessory further includes a securement surface or sleeve for a massage device, and an aperture for a strap, where a force applied to the strap will deform the accessory to move one end from the first position toward the user at the second position, and release of the force will allow the accessory to revert to its original shape, such that repeated application and release of force on the strap results in a reciprocating motion of the massage device.

Reducing pain of skin piercing using vibration

An instrument is applied to body tissue of a body part to produce vibration to thereby reduce pain of injection or other pain producing stimulus. The device has a frame, and a source of vibration connected to the frame. A removable tip is connectable to the frame which has a distal end that is connected to the source of vibration when the tip is connected to the frame, to thereby vibrate the distal end when the source of vibration is activated. At the distal end of the tip are mutually facing arms which define an opening between them. Each arm forms a projection which extends at an angle from the arm. The projections are shaped to fit the body part so that the arms and projections are sized and dimensioned to position, retain, and transmit vibration to the body part in a position proximate the opening.

A dildo assembly comprising a housing, and a dildo, having a base at one end and a tip at the opposite end, attached at its base to the housing and comprising a plurality of hinged segments, wherein the plurality of hinged segments are moveable between a first configuration, in which the dildo is curved, and a second configuration in which the dildo extends substantially straight away from the housing.

INCORPORATION OF THE ELECTRODES FOR DEFIBRILLATION INTO THE PATIENT-FACING COMPONENTS OF AUTOMATED CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION SYSTEMS
20200155862 · 2020-05-21 ·

An automated resuscitation system is provided, which can improve the outcome of patients suffering ventricular fibrillation or the ventricular tachycardia variants of cardiac arrest. This outcome can be achieved by a device that integrates automatic mechanical or pneumatic capability with electrical countershock capability such that the probability of defibrillation or cardioversion with return of spontaneous circulation is increased.

Drink Containers
