Wrist-Worn Independent 3-Point Acupuncture Stimulator
A method and device for controlling nausea, anxiety and stress. The device includes a wristwatch-like housing, electrical circuitry for generating electrical impulses of which low-frequency of which direct current (DC) electrical pulses are preferred, a metal ground plate, three adjustable metal contact points, indicator lights, function buttons on the housing, and a strap for securing the housing to the wrist. There may also be a screen display for visualizations of different functions. An internal processor controls all device functions and can optionally communicate via USB or short-range communications with a telephone App. The method allows simultaneous application of a pulse voltage output to acupuncture points H7, Lu9 and P6 (Buddha's Triangle). An alternate embodiment uses three permanent magnets to simultaneously stimulate the three points of Buddha's Triangle.

System for breath sample collection and analysis
Systems and methods for collecting samples from a patient for diagnosis are provided. In many embodiments, the sample collection and analysis system concentrates particles emanating from a patient's cough, sneeze, or breathe in a sample for the diagnosis of a respiratory tract infection or other ailment of the patient. The sample collection and analysis system has a pre-collection assembly (that is patient interface, a collector in fluid communication with a sample reservoir that function in combination to: efficiently capture the volume of air expelled from the subject, direct the expelled air towards a sample reservoir, and separate the desired particle sizes from the expelled air into the sample reservoir.
PROCESS AND SYSTEM FOR IONTOPHORETIC WRINKLE REDUCTION
A method and related systems and apparatuses for wrinkle reduction. The method includes the steps of positioning and applying a patch to skin of a consumer and adhesively securing the patch to the skin. A chemical composition on the patch includes both active ingredients and adhesive. A pair of electrodes are connected to a battery-driven, microprocessor-based controller. A current is applied through the electrodes in the patch for a selected time. The chemical composition in the patch is propelled into the consumer through use of the current in order to relax the skin or the consumer. The patch is removed and any residue of the chemical composition is massaged into the skin.
Method for the treatment of consciousness disorders
The present invention provides a method for the treatment of consciousness disorder comprising the steps of positioning at least two electrodes on a patient's head such that the first electrode is positioned on the right supraorbicular cortex and the second electrode is positioned on the left dorso-lateral prefrontal cortex; connecting said electrodes to at least one source of electrical current; delivering direct current to the electrodes, and removing the electrodes from the patient's head after a time T; wherein steps a) to d) represent a treatment session and wherein at least one treatment session is is applied on the patient's head at least 2 days per week.
