The dry immersion bed fulfills the function of recovering cardiovascular physiology by normalizing the systemic distribution of water, albumin and electrolytes, and improving lymphatic drainage, venous return, cardiac output, cell metabolism and immunity.
COLD AND HOT COMPRESS SYSTEM
A cold and/or hot compress system, comprising a water bag (101), an air bag (102), a water circulation assembly (2) in fluid communication with the water bag (101) and a pneumatic assembly (3) in fluid communication with the air bag (102). In the cold and/or hot compress system, the water circulation assembly (2) is independent from the pneumatic assembly (3). Therefore, during the delivery of a cooling or heating therapy, the independent pneumatic assembly (3) can be driven by an air pressure waveform defined by parameters pre-stored in a control panel (402) to cause the water bag (102) to apply cold/hot compress to a region of interest of a patient's body. Independent water and air circulation paths in the system avoid interference between water and air flows therein, allowing the system to applied more stable compress with minimized pressure errors. Moreover, a more constant water flow rate and a more uniform temperature distribution across the surface of the water bag are achievable.
INTELLIGENT CONTROL APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR, AND INTELLIGENT WEARABLE DEVICE
This application provides an intelligent control apparatus, including: a control circuit and a detection and heating circuit. The detection and heating circuit includes a detection and heating material. When the detection heating material works in a detection mode, the detection and heating circuit obtains a bioelectric signal of a user by using the detection and heating material. The control circuit instructs, according to the bioelectric signal, the detection heating circuit to switch a working mode of the detection and heating material to a heating mode; and instructs the detection and heating circuit to determine heating duration and/or a heating temperature of the detecting and heating material. The apparatus may be used in the field of artificial intelligence. Through control of the control circuit, the detection heating material can have both detection and heating functions. Intelligent perception of a state of the user is implemented by detecting of the bioelectric signal.

The hydrogel layer is provided to have a thermal conductivity of at least about 1.9 ca//hr-cm-° C.
Mobile cold therapy device
A mobile, self-contained cold therapy device having a container including an internal liquid or ice water tank, air and water pumps for driving air and water to a cold therapy pad with internal air and water bladders, wherein the pad is worn on an injured region of a user. The device includes an electronic controller for controlling air and water flow to and from the bladders, and a holder for supporting the container and worn on the user's body for portable, hands-free mobility while receiving cold therapy. Nipples are incorporated into a thermal conduction surface of the pad and reciprocated into the user's injured region by an air bladder to further reduce edema.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ANALYSIS OF TEMPERATURE SIGNALS FROM AN ABREU BRAIN THERMAL TUNNEL AND TREATMENT OF HUMAN CONDITIONS VIA THE ABREU BRAIN THERMAL TUNNEL
Systems configured to acquire temperature signals from an Abreu Brain Thermal Tunnel (ABTT), to analyze the temperatures signals, and to determine a condition of a human body from the analysis, and a method for doing the same, are described. In addition, systems for application of thermal signals to the ABTT for treatment of conditions are described.
SUCTION ASSEMBLY
A suction assembly is described. The suction assembly includes a therapy unit with a body that can apply a supplemental therapy to a skin surface. The suction assembly also includes a cup that can be removably connected to the therapy unit and that can interface with a skin surface to define a chamber within the cup. A pump of the therapy unit can reduce a pressure within the chamber to draw the skin surface into the chamber in a cupping therapy. In response to the skin surface being drawn into the chamber, the body can move in a longitudinal direction to maintain contact with the skin surface. A wall of the cup is translucent and the suction assembly is dimensioned to provide a user with a view into the chamber through the wall of the cup that is substantially unobstructed by the housing.
