Infant Warming System Having ECG Monitor and Method for Providing Rusucitation Assistance
An infant warming system includes a frame structure, a platform for supporting an infant that is connected to the frame structure, a radiant warmer supported on the frame structure above the platform, an ECG connection port configured to connect to ECG electrodes, and an ECG monitor housed on the frame structure, the ECG monitor receiving cardiac potentials from the ECG electrodes connected to the infant. The infant warming system further includes a control system configured to process the cardiac potentials to detect each heart beat of the infant, calculate a heart rate for the infant based on a detected heart beats, and display the heart rate on a display device associated with the infant warming system.
HYPERTHERMIC CONDITIONING CAPSULE
A self-contained, hyperthermic conditioning unit and selectively controllable environment for exercising. The unit comprises a base portion having a bed therein and a removable cover connected to the base portion to enclose a personal compartment within the unit. One or more heating elements provide heat to the personal compartment and one more pieces of physical exercise equipment are provided within the personal compartment.
Device for photo-therapy of grover's disease and use thereof
The present invention provides a photo-therapy device and a method for treatment of skin conditions such as rashes or similar dermatological conditions that are exhibited by Grover's disease or other diseases which are associated or co-existent with Grover's disease. The treatment includes exposure of the subject's affected skin and preferably the entire body with blue LED light to improve skin status by stimulating body's immune system to reduce itching, blotchiness and skin discomfort.
Skin tanning and phototherapy system and apparatus
A tanning or a phototherapy system including a light source including light emitting elements configured to emit ultraviolet (UV) light having different peak wavelengths, a controller configured to control luminous characteristics of the light source, and a sensor configured to sense at least one of the luminous characteristics of the light source and a user's skin condition, in which the luminous characteristics of the light source are controlled by the controller based on the user's skin condition sensed by the sensor, and controlling the luminous characteristics comprises increasing or decreasing luminous intensity of one or more of the light emitting elements.
DEVICE FOR PHOTO-THERAPY OF GROVER'S DISEASE AND USE THEREOF
The present invention provides a photo-therapy device and a method for treatment of skin conditions such as rashes or similar dermatological conditions that are exhibited by Grover's disease or other diseases which are associated or co-existent with Grover's disease.

INFRARED SUDATION DEVICE
An infrared sudation device includes a support element (1) extending along a longitudinal axis (X) and a cover element (2a, 2b) of semicylindrical shape mounted on the support element (1) so as to delimit an internal volume extending in the longitudinal direction between the support element and the internal surface of the cover element. The internal surface of the cover element is covered at least in part with a heating layer (3a, 3b) able to emit far-infrared radiation in at least part of the internal volume. The infrared sudation device includes a housing of photocatalyst (4), permeable to the infrared radiation emitted, supporting a photocatalyst (5) and arranged in proximity to the internal face of the heating layer (3a, 3b) so as to allow the photocatalyst to be activated using the energy supplied by the infrared radiation emitted.
Phototherapy system
A phototherapy system having sensor(s) for detecting parameters associated with light generation by a light source and circuitry for modulating the light source based on the detected parameters. Also, a phototherapy system having a light guide interfacing with a light source at a connection point, an ambient light sensor, a connector light sensor for detecting (at the connection point) ambient light received by a light emitting pad that is directed into the light guide, and circuitry for determining whether the light guide is correctly connected to the light source based on a difference between the output of the ambient light source and the connector light sensor. Further, a phototherapy system including a light emitting pad having an identification tag and circuitry that modulates a light source based on the identification tag. Additionally, a phototherapy system including a casing encapsulating multiple light emitters and a light emitting pad.
LIGHT THERAPY DEVICE
Technology for a light therapy device is disclosed. The light therapy device can comprise: a housing; and a combination of light sources coupled to the housing in an orientation operable to radiate a subject, and provide light therapy from the combination of light sources.

PHOTOTHERAPY APPARATUS WITH INTEGRATED URINE COLLECTOR AND SENSOR ENABLING REDUCTION OF SIDE-EFFECTS
A hyperbilirubinemia phototherapy apparatus (10) includes a phototherapy device (12) including illuminators (20) arranged to illuminate a neonate with phototherapy illumination effective to treat hyperbilirubinemia. A urine collector (14) is configured to collect urine excreted by a neonate while being illuminated with phototherapy illumination by the phototherapy device. A sensing device (28) is secured to at least one of the phototherapy device and the urine collector. The sensing device is configured to output a measurement of a target biomarker in urine collected by the urine collector.
PHOTOTHERAPY DEVICE
In an exemplary embodiment, a phototherapy device capable of delivering natural sunlight to a subject is provided. The phototherapy device includes a bassinet configured to hold a subject for treatment, an angular non-domed enclosure having an angled front wall and made from a flexible, transparent material connected to the incubator to create a space therein, and in some embodiments a support for supporting the bassinet. The enclosure formed around the bassinet allows visible sunlight to enter the enclosure in any direction for treating the subject while partially filtering ultraviolet (UV) and infrared radiation (IR) rays of the visible sunlight from entering the device, and is configured to direct incident IR rays out of the enclosure such that there is no build-up of heat that would harm the subject resting therein.
