NON-FIXED SHOULDER BRACE
A non-fixed shoulder brace is provided comprising: an affected shoulder support which is supported on an affected shoulder of a wearer; a waist support coupled to the wearer's waist; an affected arm mounting part in which the wearer's affected arm is inserted and which is supported by means of an affected shoulder strap member from the affected shoulder support; and an affected upper limb exercise assistance apparatus coupled to both ends of the waist support and disposed between the wearer's waist and the affected arm mounting part.
MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PORTABLE SKIN CARE DEVICE
A multi-functional portable skin care device comprises: a roller unit including a first roller and a second roller and an insulating ring member; a connecting unit including a shaft member passing through centers of the first and second rollers and the insulating ring member, a conductive pipe coupled to the rear end of the shaft member and electrically connected to any one of the first and second rollers, and a conductive rod installed along the hollows of the conductive pipe and the shaft member and electrically connected to any one of the first and second rollers; and a main body unit connected to the roller unit, a battery installed inside the main body case, a control circuit board for controlling power supplied to the first and second rollers, a control button for selecting current supplied to the first and second rollers, and an LED display for displaying the operating state.
Device and Method to Acutely Control Colonic Function, Fecal Propulsion, and Defecation
A system for fecal propulsion includes one or more sensors, a stimulator, one or more pairs of electrodes, a controller and a programming device. The sensors detect at least one marker of colonic activity from the enteric, autonomic and/or somatic nervous system. The stimulator generates energy of a particular waveform, intensity and/or time-course to modulate targeted neural circuitry with stimulation parameters being adaptable and dynamic to accommodate the various types of modulated tissues. The electrodes deliver stimulation to the enteric, autonomic and/or somatic nervous systems to control fecal propulsion. The controller and programing device change the stimulation parameters in real-time based on sensor feedback to acutely drive the circuitry from rest to productive defecation. The stimulation waveforms can be simultaneously or sequentially delivered to condition some tissues, while modulating others. The system is adaptive and can be driven through a data analytic repository and machine learning algorithm.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation using novel unbalanced biphasic waveform and novel electrode arrangement
The present invention is directed to transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) devices which utilize novel stimulation waveforms and novel arrangements of TENS electrodes to improve the efficiency of power consumption while enhancing therapeutic effects.
Noninvasive cranial nerve therapy
The present invention relates to systems for providing noninvasive cranial nerve stimulation and methods for using the same. The present invention administers therapy through electrodes that are noninvasively attached to one or more of a subject's cranial nerve. The systems can be used to enhancing rehabilitation and recovery by improving neuroplasticity and coupling muscle training with feedback.
Wearable medical device
Wearable devices for providing therapy to a patient may include disposable or reusable treatment pads. The treatment pads may include electrodes and are configured to apply energy to various regions around the head and eyes. The treatment pads may provide therapy when the eyes are open or closed. The wearable device may include a battery and/or control circuitry for issuing therapy pulses through the electrodes.
BIOMAGNETIC FIELD MEASUREMENT PROCESSING APPARATUS, BIOMAGNETIC FIELD MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, AND CONTROL METHOD OF BIOMAGNETIC FIELD MEASUREMENT PROCESSING APPARATUS
A biomagnetic field measurement processing apparatus includes circuitry; and a memory storing computer-executable instructions that cause the circuitry to execute reconfiguring a current signal from a biomagnetic field signal; extracting a current component from the current signal; and based on the extracted current component, adding to each other at least two current waveforms among current waveforms of a plurality of inward currents that are current components directed toward a nerve axon from around the nerve axon, or adding to each other at least two current waveforms among current waveforms of a plurality of inward currents that are current components directed toward a muscle fiber from around the muscle fiber, and generating a current waveform to be displayed on a display device, according to the at least two current waveforms added to each other.
Apparatuses and methods for treating ophthalmic diseases and disorders
The invention relates generally to the fields of biology and health sciences. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for modulating cellular physiology and pathological processing using a combination of compounds that can be found in amniotic membrane tissue and umbilical cord tissue preparations.
