This film for an outer bag is a film that is used in an outer bag for containing a chemical body warmer. The film contains at least a deposition film layer obtained by depositing a metal and/or a metal compound. and the film has an oxygen permeability. at 50? C. of 11.4 to 62.8 cc/m.sup.2?day?atm. The film forms the outer bag of a chemical body warmer.

A self-heating warming blanket includes a pliable outer shell forming a liquid impermeable enclosure. A heat generation layer disposed inside the enclosure has a plurality of liquid permeable heater compartments containing an exothermic reactant. The blanket also has a heater activation system including a sealed bladder containing an activator liquid inside the enclosure. An activation strip extends from outside the outer shell into the enclosure. One segment of the strip is an unsealing segment connected to the bladder. Another segment of the strip is a handle segment outside the outer shell. Pulling on the handle segment opens the bladder and releases the activator liquid into the enclosure where at least a portion of it permeates at least one heater compartment and combines with the exothermic reactant contained therein to initiate an exothermic chemical reaction that heats the warming blanket.

A surgical access system that facilitates access to a surgical site through an incision in the patient's body includes a surgical retractor and a fluid delivery or fluid evacuation device. The fluid delivery or fluid evacuation device is coupled to the surgical retractor and is adapted to deliver fluid to the surgical site or evacuate fluid from the surgical site.

An outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging and a disposable body warmer are provided that are excellent in a gas barrier property that inhibits permeation of oxygen gas, water vapor, and the like, which can allow swelling due to hydrogen gas generated during a storage period to be prevented. Provided is an outer bag for disposable body warmer packaging having an accommodating portion accommodating a disposable body warmer accommodated in an air-permeable inner bag and generating heat through contact with air, the outer bag comprising a low air-permeability portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.5 to 20 cc/m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm measured at 20? C. and 90% RH and having a water vapor permeability of 0.05 to 10 g/m.sup.2.Math.day measured at 40? C. and 90% RH; and an air-impermeable portion having an oxygen permeability of 1.3 cc/m.sup.2.Math.day.Math.atm or lower measured at 20? C. and 90% RH and a water vapor permeability of 2.0 g/m.sup.2.Math.day or lower measured at 40? C. and 90% RH, wherein a ratio of an area of the low air-permeability portion to a total internal area of the accommodating portion is 15 to 75%.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a heat generator that comprises an adhesive layer containing a volatile component and in which the volatile component is maintained in a stable state during storage, the volatile component is prevented from adhering to a heat-generating section, and it is possible to achieve an excellent warming effect during use. This heat generator comprises: a heat-generating section, an accommodation body that accommodates the heat-generating section and comprises an attachment surface to which an attachment body is attached, an adhesive layer provided to the attachment surface side of the accommodation body, and a release sheet provided to the attachment surface side of the adhesive layer. As a result of including a volatile component in the adhesive layer and providing a metal foil membrane to the release sheet, it is possible to maintain the volatile component in a stable state within the adhesive layer during storage. It is thereby possible to prevent the adhesion of the volatile component to the heat-generating section during storage and to achieve an excellent warming effect during use.

Embodiments provide cloud-based ophthalmic eyelid treatment monitoring systems and cloud-based methods for monitoring ophthalmic eyelid treatment. The monitoring system includes a moldable warming device, a monitor, and a cloud server. The moldable warming device includes a heating disc, a resonance frequency stimulation vibration generator (RFSVG), a coupling device, a mask, and a sensor array. The mask is configured to hold the heating disc, the RFSVG, and the coupling device for use in parallel utility. The sensor array is configured to generate a data stream responsive to a vibration and heating profile of a user's individual patient eyelid and periorbital three-dimensional anatomy and surface topography. The monitor is configured to receive the data stream from the sensor array and configured to transmit the data stream to the cloud server. The cloud server is configured to process the data stream so as to determine tuning parameters of the vibration and heating profile of the user's individual patient eyelid and periorbital three-dimensional anatomy and surface topography, and configured to transmit the tuning parameters to the monitor. The monitor is configured to receive the tuning parameters from the cloud server, configured to display information related to the tuning parameters, and configured to transmit the tuning parameters to the moldable warming device. The moldable warming device is configured to receive the tuning parameters from the monitor and configured to generate thermal and vibratory energy according to the tuning parameters.

The present invention relates to a method for setting a massage pattern of a thermotherapy device, and more specifically, to a method for setting a massage pattern, wherein the movement of a moxibustion device is patterned according to diseases so as to allow a bone of the spine associated with a disease to be intensively massaged, and thus if a disease is selected, a moxibustion device is operated by a motor according to the set massage pattern so as to enable an automatic customized massage according to the disease.
