A vibrating ball assembly that includes an inner shell that defines an inner shell interior and includes an outer surface, a motor positioned in the inner shell interior, an eccentric weight that is configured to be rotated by the motor, and an outer cover at least partially covering the outer surface of the inner shell. The inner shell includes an upper hemisphere and a lower hemisphere. The outer shell includes a reduced vibration section positioned in the lower hemisphere.

A medical monitoring and treatment device that includes a therapy delivery interface, a plurality of therapy electrodes coupled to the therapy delivery interface, a plurality of electrocardiogram sensing electrodes to sense electrocardiogram signals of a patient, a sensor interface to receive the electrocardiogram signals and digitize the electrocardiogram signals, and at least one processor coupled to the sensor interface and the therapy delivery interface to analyze the digitized electrocardiogram signals, to detect a cardiac arrhythmia based on the digitized electrocardiogram signals, and to control the therapy delivery interface to apply electrical therapy to the patient based upon the detected cardiac arrhythmia. The at least one processor is further configured to analyze a frequency domain transform of the digitized electrocardiogram signals, to determine a metric indicative of a metabolic state of a heart of the patient, and to accelerate or delay application of the electrical therapy based upon the metric.

An apparatus for minimally-invasive, including non-invasive, prevention and/or treatment of hydrocephalus and method for use of the same are disclosed. In one embodiment of the apparatus, a housing is sized for superjacent contact with a skull having a fontanel. Within the housing, a compartment includes a pressure applicator, such as a fluid-filled bladder, under the control of a pressure regulator. The pressure applicator is configured to selectively apply an external pressure to the fontanel. The compartment includes a pressure sensor configured to measure intracranial pulse pressure of the fontanel. Further, in one embodiment, the apparatus can cause pulse pressure modulation by adjusting the intracranial pulse pressure via the pressure applicator. This enables a non-invasive measurement of the pulse pressure and modulation thereof in infants, for example.

The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of rehabilitation medical devices, and in particular relates to a pose-adjustable rigid-flexible coupled waist rehabilitation robot. The robot comprises a fixed platform, a movable platform connected to the fixed platform, a lumbar vertebra support assembly mounted on the movable platform, and two support airbags symmetrically arranged at both sides of the lumbar vertebra support assembly. The lumbar vertebra support assembly comprises a plurality of bellow air bags arranged in parallel. By controlling the pressure in a plurality of bellow air bags arranged in parallel, the lumbar vertebra support assembly at the lumbar vertebra position can be adjusted to different curvatures to adapt to different patients, such that the lumbar vertebra support assembly can support the lumbar vertebra part of the patient in a perfectly fitting manner to guarantee the comfort in the rehabilitation training process.

Various devices and methods useful for providing vasocompression to a patient who is undergoing chemotherapy treatment.

Embodiments of the improved stimulation device include a cup and a driver. The cup has a cavity surrounded by a rim. The driver comprises a plate disposed on an underside of the cup, a cam disposed adjacent to the plate, and a motor mechanically coupled to the cam. The driver is configured to intermittently vary a volume of the cavity of the cup from a first volume to a second volume without returning the cup from the second volume to the first volume. In some embodiments, the cup returns from the second volume to the first volume, in between intermittent varying from the first volume to the second volume, due to the resilient nature of the material of the cup and/or the configuration of the cup. This varying of the volume between the first and second volumes creates a pressure field in a chamber formed by the cavity and a user's skin.

The present invention relates to an anti-vibration and wear-resistant massage gun, which comprises an adaptive buffer damping sleeve (300), wherein the damping sleeve (300) is provided with a plurality of convex ribs (310), the damping sleeve (300) is set up in an assembly cavity (31) through the convex ribs (310), and a self-adjusting clearance cavity (400) is formed between the damping sleeve (300) and the assembly cavity (31), and the anti-vibration and wear-resistant massage gun further comprises a friction protection body (100), wherein the friction protection body (100) is covered on a moving shaft (10) to improve the abrasion resistance of the massage gun.

A massage device for an arm of a vehicle occupant includes a hand resting region having at least one moveable hand massaging element. The massage device also includes at least one forearm resting region with at least one moveable forearm massaging element and two lateral forearm support regions each with at least one moveable forearm massaging element.

The invention relates to a portable massage appliance having a shape-modifiable contact segment to be placed onto a body region to be massaged and one or more electrically drivable massage elements that are arranged inside a main part and are designed to cause modification of the shape of the contact segment during operation, a protective segment being arranged between the contact segment and the inner part of the main part.

Air cushion assembly for a seat, such as a vehicle seat, comprising at least an air cushion and an air supply system for variably pressurizing the air cushions of the air cushion assembly with air. A respective supply line comprising a shut-off valve leads from the air supply system to each air cushion, where a pulsation module is provided and configured to act upon each air cushion with a pulsation. The pulsation module comprises a pneumatic element which is connected in a pressure-equalized manner to at least one supply line, and an actuating element for transmitting a mechanical motion to the pneumatic element for changing the volume of the pneumatic element in order to generate a pulsation.
