A therapeutic apparatus for treating damaged tissue on a limb or body of a subject includes a wearable adapted to cover and be secured to the limb or body of a subject over damaged tissue. The wearable being configured to reduce pressure on the damaged tissue and adapted to deliver one or more treatments selected from the group consisting of heat, oxygen, electrical current, and light to the damaged tissue.

Portable DC unit for delivery of a single titratable dose of free electrons at the site of envenomation in the treatment of venomous bites, allergic reactions to insect stings and other animals and contact with poisonous plants and their toxins. An extension wire provides a means of ensuring adequate coverage of large affected areas of the bite/sting area. The medical application of high voltage DC electrons in the treatment of venomous bites has been described by Ronald H. Guderian, Charles D. Mackenzie and Jeffrey F. Williams in the journal, Lancet (High Voltage Shock Treatment for Snake Bite, Lancet, 26 Jul. 1986). A follow-up publication in the same journal (Kroegel C., Meyer K H and Buschenfelde Z, Biological Basis for High-voltage -shock treatment for snakebite, Lancet, 6 Dec. 1986), provides additional details. Venomous vectors are primarily found in the wild but in the cases of venomous spiders and scorpions, the vectors may invade and occupy buildings and living spaces. When planning to spend time outdoors, most people consciously assume a degree of risk related to venomous vectors, caustic plants, and flying and stinging insects (i.e., although combining alcohol and drugs with outdoor activities oftentimes leads to poor judgment and increased risky behaviors). Even inadvertent contact with fire ants can be acutely and excruciatingly painful. The pain may be brief or it may last for days with significant local and even systemic effects. When humans invade nature's space and nature invades our living spaces, the effects can be nothing short of traumatic. If there was an effective and efficient tool or method to treat venomous bites and stings, it would significantly impact how most of the world lives and views the risk associated with venomous bites. If the tool or treatment was highly effective, it could truly change the nature of outdoor activities, including farming, agriculture, outdoor professions, camping, hiking, etc. The present invention utilizes several unique aspects of high voltage DC current directed to the envenomation site to neutralize the venom. For the above scenarios, the use of a high voltage and low amperage DC electrical device to neutralize the venom, disassociate the venomous components and slow down or halt the oxidative stress, is a desirable option for those working outdoors, in the agricultural sector, ranchers, hikers, campers, water sports, veterinarians, etc. The transfer of approximately 18 Kv to 25 Kv, at a distance of 50 mm between the contact electrodes (or longer distances when the extension wire is needed), overcomes skin resistance and delivers a direct current shock to the envenomation site, effectively stoppi

Systems, devices and methods are provided for transcutaneously delivering energy impulses to bodily tissues for therapeutic purposes, such as for enhancing the body's bone healing process in spinal fusion patients. A therapeutic stimulator system comprises a housing for an energy source and a signal generator. The system further includes one or more electrodes coupled to the signal generator. A processor is coupled to the housing and configured to determine usage levels of the signal generator and/or motion data of the housing. The system may include a mobile device that allows the patient to input user status data, such as pain levels, and compare the user status data with the usage levels and/or the motion data, thereby improving patient compliance with a prescribed therapy regimen.

The present invention discloses a comb-like device for stimulation of hair re-growth on the epidermis of an area of skin of a subject and methods of stimulating hair re-growth for stimulation of hair re-growth.

An electrode array and a delivery assembly are disclosed. The array is wrapped around a flexible core part of the delivery assembly. A sheath, also part of the delivery assembly, is disposed over the array and core. Steering cables extend through the core. Once the delivery assembly-encased array is inserted in the body, the combination is advanced to the tissue over which the array is to be deployed. By pulling on the steering cables the array and assembly are steered into position. Once the array is in position, the sheath is retracted, the array deploys over the target tissue.

An apparatus includes multiple first reservoirs and multiple second reservoirs joined with a substrate. Selected ones of the multiple first reservoirs include a reducing agent, and first reservoir surfaces of selected ones of the multiple first reservoirs are proximate to a first substrate surface. Selected ones of the multiple second reservoirs include an oxidizing agent, and second reservoir surfaces of selected ones of the multiple second reservoirs are proximate to the first substrate surface.

Devices and methods for dermatology and more particularly to fluid enhanced skin treatment system for skin rejuvenation that can use an abrasive probe for removing epidermal layers while contemporaneously providing for the infusion of therapeutic fluids into the skin.

A multichannel stimulation system for regenerating damaged corneal nerves, includes: electrically contacting a contactor of the multichannel unit with the stimulation signal module; providing an electric pulse signal, by the stimulation signal module; transferring an electric pulse signal of a first duration time and an electric pulse signal of a seventh duration time to the first channel, and transferring an electric pulse signal; maintaining an adjusted magnitude of the absolute value of an electric pulse signal when the magnitude of the absolute value of the electric pulse signal desired by a user is adjusted; and confirming whether impedance measured between the first channel and an area where the first channel is attached and impedance measured between the second channel and an area where the second channel is attached exceed a reference impedance.
