An exercise assistance system includes a deep body thermometer attached to a user and including a temperature sensor, temperature adjustment equipment attached to at least one of a hand and a foot of the user, and a controller configured to communicate with the deep body thermometer and the temperature adjustment equipment. The deep body thermometer detects information related to deep body temperature of the user with the temperature sensor. The controller executes a process for determining whether the deep body temperature of the user is less than or equal to a predetermined temperature based on the detected information related to deep body temperature. When determined that the deep body temperature is not less than or equal to the predetermined temperature, the controller executes a process for outputting control information to the temperature adjustment equipment indicating a magnetic stimulating pattern that dilates blood vessels in a palm or foot bottom of the user.

Dermatological treatments and systems employing cooling, topicals, and/or abrasion are disclosed herein. The system can include a cold plate and a suspension assembly tip. The suspension assembly tip can be selectively coupleable to the cold plate. The suspension assembly tip can include a suspension tip and a suspension. The suspension tip can include a contact surface that can be contacted onto a patient's skin to provide a treatment. The suspension can couple to both the cold plate and to the suspension tip. The suspension can be thermally conductive so as to closely thermally couple the suspension tip to the cold plate, or the suspension tip can have a low thermal conductivity so as to not closely thermally coupled the suspension tip to the cold plate.

The present disclosure includes vision preservation systems for medical devices, such as cryospray devices for use with endoscopes. Exemplary embodiments provide a distal attachment in the form of a shroud or cap that mounts to the end of a flexible endoscope. A purging fluid supply mechanism is provided along the length of the endoscope, providing a channel for purging fluid, such as gas, to communicate between the endoscope tip and an external gas supply. The cap or shroud assembly incorporates a lens clearing flow field adjustment mechanism, such as nozzles, designed to direct warm (room temperature or higher) purging fluid across a lens at the scope tip. Another flow deflection mechanism, such as a guide or nozzle, may be included with the cap to direct purging fluid at an angle away from the lens.

A method for maintaining and/or increasing body temperature of a patient may involve delivering heat to a first location on a limb of the patient, delivering heat to a second location on the limb, apart from the first location, and applying intermittent compression to a third location on the limb, located between the first location and the second location. A device for maintaining and/or increasing body temperature of a patient may include a sleeve for positioning over at least part of one of the patient's limbs, first and second heat delivery members coupled with the sleeve, and an intermittent compression member coupled with the sleeve between the first and second heat delivery members.

A temperature-regulating support includes a head part and a body part that are coupled to one another, at least one temperature-regulating layer, and a support layer. The at least one temperature-regulating layer has a battery as a power supply. The battery is arranged in a compartment of the support, and the battery is capable of being removed from the compartment and can be inserted into the compartment.

A transparent cover member for a skin treatment device passes light and heat to a user's skin. The transparent cover member presents a comfortable flat surface at its exterior, and includes features that couple to a heating element that surrounds a plurality of visible light LEDs. The transparent cover member can include retaining features to assist in assembling the head assembly of the skin treatment device.
