Method and apparatus for improved wound healing
A pad for electrically stimulated wound healing, including a pad configured to be placed on a wound, at least one anode disposed on the pad to contact the wound, and at least one cathode disposed on the pad to contact the wound, the at least one cathode being disposed separately from the at least on anode. The pad wherein the at least one anode and the at least one cathode in contact with the wound provide a flow of electrical current in an intended direction through the wound based on the separate locations of the at least one anode and the at least one cathode.
Signal lamp
A signal lamp comprises at least one light source arranged at the entry of a longitudinal light guide oriented with its longitudinal axis (γ) in the direction (s) of light exit from the lamp, and at least a portion of the light from the light source passes into a transversal light guide oriented with its longitudinal axis (α, β) transversally to longitudinal axis (γ). Transversal light guide is fitted on a part of its casing with an exit surface for light to exit from the lamp. Longitudinal light guide is fitted with at least two reflective surfaces that do not overlap when viewed in the direction of longitudinal axis (γ), and that are inclined towards axis (γ) to reflect light beams to at least two transversal light guides having their entries against the reflective surfaces, and their exit surfaces at a distance from each other in direction (s).
Electricity and microcurrent generator
The present invention relates to a microcurrent generator capable of generating microcurrents by utilizing a gap between different metals and obtaining a healing effect by using the generated microcurrents. The present invention relates to a configuration of generating microcurrents by forming a gap (G) between a first metal (10) and a second metal (20) made from different materials.
Treating skin ulcers
The invention provides the use of electrical pulses (I, W) to reduce, improve, heal or prevent recurrence of a chronic ulcer, comprising administering to a need (1, 2, 3) an effective amount of an electric stimulation in multiple treatment sessions, wherein the electric stimulation stimulates the lymphatic system.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TREATING SCAR TISSUE OF A BIOLOGICAL SUBJECT USING RADIO FREQUENCY WAVES AND MANIPULATION
A system and method for treating tissue of a biological subject, including a radio frequency wave generator configured for generating a radio frequency wave at a therapeutically beneficial wavelength, a power supply configured for supplying power to the generator for generation of the wave, a controller configured for setting the wavelength, and a director configured for directing the wave to the tissue to achieve a therapeutically beneficial outcome for the subject. Preferably, the wave generates heat at a therapeutically beneficial temperature. Preferably, the director is configured for directing the wave to the tissue by placement of the director adjacent the tissue and movement of the director across the tissue in alternating general directions applied at various therapeutically beneficial speeds, various therapeutically beneficial distances, and various therapeutically beneficial time intervals within a desired treatment area of the tissue.
Systems and methods for therapeutic electrical stimulation
A patch for a therapeutic electrical stimulation device includes a shoe connected to the first side of the patch, the shoe including a body extending in a longitudinal direction from a first end to a second end, and having first and second surfaces, the first end of the shoe defining at least two ports, and the first surface of the shoe defining a connection member. The patch also includes at least one conductor positioned in the ports of the first end of the shoe. The shoe is configured for sliding insertion into a receptacle defined by a controller so that the conductor is connected to the controller to deliver electrical current from the controller, through the conductor, and to the electrodes, and the connection member is at least partially captured by a detent defined by the controller in the receptacle to retain the shoe within the receptacle.
MEDICATED THREAD DRAINAGE THERAPY APPARATUS
The present disclosure belongs to the field of treatment devices, and specifically relates to a medicated thread drainage treatment device. The treatment device includes a first treatment unit used for postoperative pain relief and drainage; a second treatment unit used for promoting quick healing of a wound; a third treatment unit used for preventing deep venous thrombosis; and an electropneumatic, negative-pressure, electric stimulation multipurpose therapy apparatus connected with the first treatment unit, the second treatment unit, and the third treatment unit and providing electropneumatic pressure, negative pressure, and electric energy. The present disclosure is used for postoperative quick healing and recovery; promotion of clinical use guidelines will greatly reduce and even eliminate the postoperative complications, particularly postoperative complications of pulmonary embolism, thus saving patients' lives.
Skin dressing with electrodes and physiologically active precursor substance
A skin dressing comprising first and second electrodes, an electrical power supply not electrically connected to either or both of the first and second electrodes, and further comprising a physiologically or antimicrobially active precursor substance, the dressing being operable, when placed on a skin site to be treated, to connect the electrical power supply to both the first and second electrodes, thereby to trigger the electrochemical oxidation or reduction of the precursor substance on one of the electrodes to produce a physiologically or antimicrobially active oxidized or reduced compound which is capable of diffusing towards the skin site for the treatment thereof.
Devices, and systems for remotely monitoring and treating wounds or wound infections
Devices and methods for remotely monitoring and treating wounds or wound infections are disclosed. A device can include a multi-layered, flexible substrate having a dressing layer positioned on a wound side of the substrate, and a flexible printed circuit board layer positioned on an electronics side of the substrate that is opposite the wound side of the dressing layer. A plurality of electrodes can be electrically coupled to the flexible printed circuit board. A plurality of temperature sensors can be electrically coupled to the flexible printed circuit board. Systems including the described devices are also disclosed.
Therapeutic stimulator system
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.
