OPHTHALMIC SHIELD AND THERAPEUTIC METHOD
A method is disclosed, comprising obtaining at least one metric of an eye; and determining, based on the at least one metric of the eye, at least one parameter for manufacturing an ophthalmic shield to be worn on the eye. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic shield may have a minimum horizontal dimension of 18 mm and a minimum vertical dimension of 15 mm. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic shield may have a minimum horizontal dimension of 20 mm and a minimum vertical dimension of 17 mm. In some embodiments, the ophthalmic shield may have a minimum horizontal dimension of 26 mm and a minimum vertical dimension of 22 mm.
VENTRICULOSTOMY PATCH SYSTEM AND METHOD
A ventriculostomy patch system is disclosed herein. The ventriculostomy patch system including a base-ring, and a window assembly. The base-ring includes a circular body, with the circular-body having an outer-surface, an inner-surface, a top-surface, and a bottom-surface. The bottom-surface includes a catheter-notch; the catheter-notch is configured for removably retaining a ventriculostomy catheter. The base-ring further includes at least two dome-tabs, each of the at least two dome-tabs located upon the outer surface of the base-ring. Preferably, the base-ring is constructed from anti-microbial materials. The window assembly includes an external-ring and a window, where the window assembly is removably affixable to the top-surface of the base-ring.
TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY PROTECTION DEVICES
A collar sized to be worn around the neck of a human subject has at least one member that defines an arc of less than 360° and greater than 180° having a diameter, a first compressor at a first end of the arc, a second compressor at a second end of the arc and a bend angle sensor. The collar is adapted to exert an inwardly-directed force on the first and second compressors when worn. The bend angle sensor is configured and positioned to detect a bend angle of the collar, wherein the bend angle correlates to the inwardly-directed force on the first and second compressors when worn.
Suboccipital Compression Pad
A suboccipital compression pad may include a pad member configured to contact a suboccipital region of a patient. A suboccipital compression pad may include a pair of securing straps extending respectively from opposing ends of the pad member, the pair of securing straps having proximal ends diverging into upper rear straps and lower rear straps to form an open space between the upper rear straps and the lower rear straps such that portions of the upper rear straps are located above ears of the patient and portions of the lower rear straps are located below ears of the patient without covering ears of the patient, wherein one of the upper rear straps and the lower rear straps of the pair of securing straps is configured to be selectively attachable to different locations of a back side of the pad member.
A SCALP PROTECTOR FOR USE FOLLOWING A HAIR TRANSPLANT PROCEDURE
The present invention provides a scalp protector for use following a hair transplant procedure conducted on a subject including: a cover having a central region and elongated portions extending from the central region for covering the surface of the scalp of the subject, each of the elongated portions provides at least one set of a first part of a snap fasteners closure; a band configured to extend around the periphery of the scalp of the subject, the band includes anchoring regions deployed on the band so as to align with the elongated portions of the cover, each of the anchoring regions providing at least one set of a complementary part of a snap fasteners closure for fastening to the elongated portions.
