A back massaging and cleaning device has a main body having a back plate, a first clamping block connected at right angles to a first end of the back plate, and a second clamping block connected at right angles to a second end of the back plate. A connection mechanism connects the back plate to a wall of a shower or bathroom. A back massaging and cleaning rod has a fixed rod and a movable roller wheel provided on the fixed rod, the fixed rod having a first end that extends through a hole of the first clamping block, and a second end that is seated in a groove of the second clamping block. The roller wheel has an irregularly shaped cylindrical body externally made from a back cleaning material and internally made from a massaging material.

Maintaining Active Compression Decompression Device Adherence

Systems and apparatuses related to the field of cardiac resuscitation, and in particular to devices for assisting rescuers in the administration of cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are described herein. The system includes an adhesive pad configured to be adhered to at least a portion of a patient's chest, a sensor configured to be placed on the patient's chest and to measure at least one chest compression parameter during CPR treatment, and a landing pad having a coupling surface at least partially surrounding the sensor and configured for maintaining adherence with an active compression decompression device, the adherence sufficient to transfer decompression force between the active compression decompression device and the patient's chest during the CPR treatment.

Pulmonary Expansion Therapy (PXT) Devices
20170196762 · 2017-07-13 ·

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.

WALL MOUNTED BACK TREATMENT APPARATUS
20250049626 · 2025-02-13 ·

A back treatment assembly for providing a surface for treating a user's back, such as by facilitating scrubbing, scratching, massaging, or heat treating the back. includes a frame comprising a rear wall, a first lateral wall, and a second lateral wall. The rear wall is coupled to and extends between the first and second lateral walls, and each of the first and second lateral walls extends forwardly from the rear wall. A back engagement member is mounted to the frame and extends between the first and second lateral walls. The back engagement member is configured to abut a back of a user.

Method and device for performing alternating chest compression and decompression
09655809 · 2017-05-23 · ·

A plunger adapter and a detachable compression pad for piston driven chest compression devices optimizes the application of chest compressions to a fixed location on a patient's chest. The detachable compression pad may be removably secured to the patient above the patient's sternum to ensure that the compression pressure from the piston through the piston adapter is applied to a fixed location on the patient's chest. As the plunger and plunger adapter retract from the chest, the compression pad remains fixed to the patient's chest, and as the plunger and plunger adapter extend from the chest compression unit for subsequent compression strokes, the distal end of the plunger adapter reengages the compression pad to apply compression to a fixed location on the patient's chest.

MASSAGING LACTATION ASSISTIVE DEVICE

Disclosed are lactation assistive devices. The lactation assistive device may include a stimulation component and a controller. The stimulation component may include electrical components or mechanical components to stimulate a breast. The stimulation component may be sized to fit within a garment worn about the breast and may define an opening to be located proximate a nipple of the breast when the garment is worn. The controller may be configured to control stimulation of the breast by the stimulation component.

The PXT device also may improve lung compliance by enabling a medical professional such as a Respiratory Therapist/Care provider to grab and elevate the chest wall to compensate for the dysfunction of the respiratory musculature responsible for lifting the chest wall during normal breathing. In some embodiments, once a targeted functional residual capacity (FRC) has been established, percussion may be applied with increased effectiveness due to greater oscillatory movement of chest wall.

MODULAR ADULT TOY
20170087049 · 2017-03-30 ·

The modular adult toy includes a base module with a housing having a first connection half at one end; and at least one shaft module. Each shaft module includes a body having a second connection half at one end and a first connection half at an opposite end. There is a head module having a body having a second connection half at one end. Each of the first connection halves are configured to be releasably connectable with any second connection half.

Stress Cone
20170087051 · 2017-03-30 ·

A stress cone (10) for massaging tight back muscles of a human body, the stress cone being a conical shaped body (11) with a rounded tip (12) at one end and an opposed concave base (14) at an opposed end. The stress cone (10) is typically made of solid rubber or other rigid but slightly compressible materials, and in some embodiments features a hollow core (18) for housing a vibrating motor (20). In use, the stress cone (10) is affixed to a wall via the concave base (14), and a user positions an identified pressure point of his or her body against the tip (12) and applies body pressure to the tip. The user can move side to side or up and down against the stress cone, massaging the muscles located at the pressure point to loosen them.
