Portable deep vein thrombosis compression device having an integrated pressure cuff and utilizing a disposable cuff barrier
A portable compression system for preventing deep vein thrombosis is provided. The portable compression system includes an inflatable apparatus comprising a monitor unit and at least one inflatable air cell. The portable compression system further includes an outer cuff comprising a pocket configured to receive the inflatable apparatus, the outer cuff configured to be wrapped around a portion of a patient's body where prevention of deep vein thrombosis is desired. The portable compression system further includes a disposable sleeve barrier configured to provide a physical barrier between the outer cuff and the portion of the patient's body.
Mobility Device for Varying Surfaces
The present disclosure relates to devices and systems related to a modular leg component for a mobility walker. Namely, a device including a leg component that includes a first surface and a second surface is described. The first surface and the second surface may be constructed from materials with a different hardness from one another. The surfaces are configured to be movable relative one another. For example, at least one of the first surface or the second surface is rotatable about an axis such that in a first configuration the first surface is arranged to contact a ground surface and in a second configuration the second surface is arranged to contact the ground surface.
DISPOSABLE NASAL AND EYE WASH DISPENSER
An apparatus for rinsing sinuses or eyes, comprising a hand crushable container containing saline solution, and a dispenser configured to make a liquid tight seal with the container at one end, and a liquid tight seal with a nostril or an eye socket at the other end.
DEVICE FOR TREATING VAGINAL ATROPHY
A device (1, 20, 100, 200) to treat vaginal atrophy comprising a treatment module (2, 21, 101, 201) configured for insertion into the vagina and having a microtrauma module. The micro trauma module is configured to deliver negative pressure mechanical microtrauma therapy to a wall of the vagina when inserted. The microtrauma module comprises a plurality of apertures (6, 106, 206) in fluidic connection with a vacuum pump, the device being arranged to generate a negative pressure at the apertures (6, 106).
Body-Worn Therapeutic Device
The present invention relates generally to the field of therapeutic accessories. More specifically, the present invention relates to a body-worn accessory which can be used to provide heating or massaging to an area of the body. The invention has a body with a front surface, a rear surface and an interior surface, a battery and a remote. The interior surface of the body has at least one heating or massaging element that is powered by the battery, and can be controlled by the remote. The remote further allows a user to control the heat or massage level of the at least one pad and the activity/inactivity of the element. The body of the device may also have a pouch to store one of a battery, pad or sponge.
ANATOMICAL/PHYSIOLOGICAL EVENT APPARATUS AND METHOD OF TREATING AN APPROACHING
A neuromodulation device and method capable of varying a neuromodulation therapy in order to prevent, delay or control a sexual emission.
Compression Device Especially for Preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis
A compression device particularly suited for DVT prophylaxis includes a disposable wrap and a re-usable controller removably mounted on the wrap to apply a tensioning force to the wrap when it is encircling the limb of a patient. The wrap includes an RF chip with a unique identifier and the controller includes an RF sensor and processor to authenticate the wrap before commencing a compression cycle. A kiosk is provided for storing a plurality of wraps for use by patients and a plurality of controllers to be used with any of the wraps. The processor of each controller can control an electric motor in the controller to tighten and loosen the wrap according to a compression protocol between a pre-tension compression force and maximum compression force. The amount of movement of the wrap changes as the patient's physiology changes while maintaining the pre-tension and maximum compression forces.
Portable system for the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis
A kit is disclosed for facilitating the supply and return of a system for stimulating venous and arterial circulation in a patient to prevent deep vein thrombosis, which includes a left and right set of inflatable garment sleeves that are disposable, a pair a rechargeable battery powered pump assemblies for inflating the sleeves and that are reusable, a power supply adapter for recharging the pump assemblies and that is reusable, and a shipping carton for returning the pump assemblies and adapter to a supplier after the patient is ambulatory and the risks of deep vein thrombosis have ended.
