Provided herein is a device comprising a cuirass, which includes a shell, at least one sensor, a pressure creation means for providing at least one of a negative pressure or a positive pressure within the shell, and a controller operably connected to the pressure creation means, wherein the controller is adapted to receive an input signal from the at least one sensor and adapted to provide an output signal to the pressure creation means, and wherein the pressure creation means is adapted to provide a greater or lesser amount of pressure within the shell in response to the output signal. Also provided are methods of use.

A percussive pulsing therapy device configured for delivering pulsating or intermittent airflow to a patient device, such as a patient vest. The percussive pulsed air device may have an airflow generator for controlling amplitude of the percussive pulsed air and a pulse frequency control module for controlling frequency of the percussive pulsed air. In some embodiments, the pulse frequency control module may have a rotatable fan blade, such as a circular fan blade having one or more cutout portions. In some embodiments, the rotating fan blade may have one or more channels configured to redirect percussive pulsed air. Moreover, a percussive pulsed air device of the present disclosure may have a dampening element flowably coupled to an inlet of the pulse frequency control module. In some embodiments, at least one inlets of the pulse frequency control module may be arranged on a different airflow plane than one or more outlets.

System and method for providing remotely guided physical treatment are disclosed. A computing device is communicably coupled to a therapeutic robot and a remote guidance device. The computing device receives full-body images of a treatment subject. The computing device generates a plurality of key physical points for the treatment subject by identifying a three-dimensional human body template that corresponds to the shape and posture parameters of the treatment subject and fitting the identified first three-dimensional human body template to the full-body images of the treatment subject. The fitting causes adjustments to locations of the corresponding set of key physical points of the first three-dimensional human body template. The adjusted locations of the corresponding set of key physical points of the first three-dimensional human body template are provided to the guidance device as basis for a treatment procedure that is specified by the treatment guidance provider during the physical treatment session.

Various embodiments of systems, devices, components, and methods for providing external therapeutic vibration stimulation to a patient are disclosed and described. Therapeutic vibration stimulation is provided to at least one location on or adjacent to a patient's skin (such as through clothing or a layer disposed next to the patient's skin), and is configured to trigger or induce resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of the patient. Inducing such resonance can aid in training autonomic reflexes and improve their functioning.

Systems and methods for providing remotely controlled therapy are provided herein. A therapy device connects to a therapy server over a network. The therapy device can include a headset and an audio device. A therapist can select one or more therapies to apply to a patient, including multiple therapies at the same time. The therapist can receive feedback from the patient that allows the therapist to adjust the therapies being applied.

A lung gas exchange device includes a front housing, at least one strap configured to affix the front housing to an anterior neck of a user, a vibration device positioned within the front housing, a wear plate configured to transfer vibration from the vibration device to the anterior neck of the user, a power source configured to provide power to the vibration device, a power control mechanism configured to allow a user to turn on and off the vibration device; and a central processing unit board connected to the power control mechanism, the power source, and the vibration device.

A ventilation system for ventilation of a patient includes a patient interface device for attaching to the patient and a measuring and analysis device for measuring and analyzing breathing of the patient. The measuring and analysis device includes a connector housing defining a passage. A first portion of the connector housing is connected to the patient interface device. The measuring and analysis device further includes an air flow sensor and a pressure sensor disposed in the connector housing for measuring an air flow rate through the connector housing and a pressure in the connector housing respectively. The present device also includes a processor configured for data acquisition, data storage, data processing, and data output based on the air flow rate and the pressure, whereby the ventilation system is operable with real-time feedback based on the data output. A method for administering cardiopulmonary resuscitation is also provided.

The present teachings relate to a device and a method for treating a subject, wherein an actuator is configured for external mechanical contact with the subject, wherein a control unit is configured to control the actuator to provide at least one burst of a primary vibration, and wherein the primary vibration has one or several frequencies, or a frequency varying, within an operative frequency range contained in a range from 5 Hz to 1000 Hz, in order for the device to generate a shear wave which propagates inside the body of the subject. In addition, the present teachings relate to use of a device of the present teachings to treat a breathing-related sleep disorder, including snoring, OSA, UARS, or OHS.

A mechanical ventilation system comprises a plurality of ventilation therapy sub-systems. Each of the ventilation therapy sub-systems is adapted to assist a respiratory function of the patient. The system also comprises a detector of the respiratory drive of the patient, an operator interface receiving one or more control parameters, and a main controller. The main controller assigns a therapeutic contribution to each of the ventilation therapy sub-systems based on the respiratory drive of the patient and on the control parameters. The controller modulates the respiratory drive of a patient by controlling each of the plurality of the ventilation therapy sub-systems according to its assigned therapeutic contribution. Distinct ventilation therapy sub-systems may apply negative pressure on the abdomen of the patient, deliver a non-pressurizing inspiratory flow to the patient, or induce a positive pressure in the airways of the patient.
