LUNG GAS EXCHANGE DEVICE
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.
Cushion for decompressing the human spinal column
A cushion for decompressing the human spinal column comprises a body support surface, a first short flat bottom surface, a longer second flat bottom surface, wherein the first bottom surface and the second bottom surface intersect and are angled at a particular angle lying within the range of 120 degrees to 150 degrees, but preferably at 135 degrees. A cushion for decompressing the human spinal column comprise a body support surface, and a curved bottom surface wherein the curve of the bottom surface increases or decreases in radius from one end to the other. The curve of the bottom surface may have the shape of an incomplete portion of a two-dimensional spiral.
CERVICAL SPINE TRACTION DEVICE, EQUIPMENT AND METHOD
The present disclosure relates to a cervical spine traction device, equipment and method, wherein a built-in program code determines a cervical spine stretching force according to a sensed weight of a user. The cervical spine traction device has a main controller, a fixing unit, a movable unit and thermal massage units. By storing the program code in the main controller, the optimal traction data comprising a cervical spine stretching distance, the cervical spine stretching force and a cervical spine stretching time can be calculated according to the weight and height of the user lying down on the platform. Further, by sensing the temperature of the neck of the user and massaging the neck, the tension force of the neck muscle can be relaxed, the tightness of the user can be sufficiently eliminated, and the cervical spine of the user is corrected.
Automated caregiving device with prompting based on caregiver progress
A method of assisting a caregiver in delivering patient therapy includes providing prompts at a user interface, wherein the therapy includes steps in a protocol, at least one of which is an instruction for the caregiver to call the ERC by actuating the input device, initiating a call to an emergency response center (ERC) in response to actuation of an input device of a medical device, detecting, by one or more sensors, whether one or more steps of the protocol have been completed in response to the prompts, wherein at least one of the sensors is a sensor other than a therapy electrode, selecting one or more prompts based at least in part on whether the one or more steps in the series has been performed, and controlling the user interface to provide the selected one or more prompts as visible and/or audible prompts.
Neck Therapy Device and Method
A neck therapy device supports the head of a patient in a supine, side-lying or prone position to eliminate the effects of gravity on the cervical vertebrae and associated musculature. A sliding platform supporting the head permits frictionless turning throughout full cervical motion and a cervical support can target a particular cervical vertebra to isolate motion to superior vertebrae. The cervical support is also used to apply traction and pressure to cervical muscles and vertebrae to effect soft-tissue mobilization and activate and strengthen cervical muscles.
Lung gas exchange device
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.
Method of Treating Peyronie's Disease
An improved device and method for treating Peyronie's disease is disclosed. The improved device and method allows use of the device in pbulic.
FLOATING PHYSICAL THERAPY DEVICE
A floating physical therapy device includes a frame and a harness. The frame includes an inner frame and an outer frame on the right and left side. The inner frame defines a patient area. The harness is attached to the inner frame such that it secures a patient to the device in a substantially upright position during use. The frame extends forwards and backwards, as well as to the left and right, of the patient area in order to provide stability in the water during normal use. The frame defines a trainer area immediately forward of the patient area where a therapist can have access to the patient during therapy sessions.
PORTABLE TRACTION DEVICE WITH SLING
A portable traction device can include a sling that is sized to cradle a user's head. The sling can be associated with an anchor that is positioned a height above the floor when the portable traction device is in use. A tensile force vector between the anchor and the sling allows for cervical traction. The portable traction device can additionally include one or more flexible straps between the anchor and the sling that can differentially regulate the amplitude of the tensile force vector by stretching.
INTEGRATED, NONINVASIVE STIMULATION DELIVERY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TREATING ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE SYMPTOMS
Disclosed herein is a method of treating neurodegenerative diseases involving accumulation of abnormal proteins in the central nervous system (CNS) of a user. The method includes utilizing an intraoral device to apply photobiomodulation and vibration to specific points on hard and soft palates of the user to stimulate the user's glymphatic system and decongest hyperphosphorylated tau and amyloid proteins and toxins, and simultaneously with the utilization of the intraoral device, applying a transcranial device to exert vasopneumatic compression and photobiomodulation on the user's head and neck to stimulate the user's lymphatic system and enhance the flow of lymphatic fluid towards the subclavian lymphatic pathway.
