Embodiments disclosed herein relate to a garment system including at least one sensor and at least one actuator that operates responsive to sensing feedback from the at least one sensor to cause a flexible compression garment to selectively constrict or selectively dilate, thereby compressing or relieving compression against at least one body part of a subject. Such selective constriction or dilation can improve muscle functioning or joint functioning during use of motion-conducive equipment, such as an exercise bike or rowing machine.

An upper limb rehabilitation training system integrating multi-source stimulation is provided and includes an upper limb rehabilitation body provided with first through fourth rigid rings, the first through fourth rigid rings are fixed with first rope knots, second rope knots, third rope knots and fourth rope knots respectively. The upper limb rehabilitation training system integrating multi-source stimulation simulates working principles of muscle more authentically by using linear drive method, and complies with laws of human kinematics. The linear drive method reduces many complex mechanical structures, and makes process of force transmission very easy. The upper limb rehabilitation training system integrating multi-source stimulation reduces weight of a rehabilitative robot, improves wearing comfort, and provides a basic guarantee for patients to devote themselves to rehabilitation training.

A motion assistance apparatus includes a waist frame configured to support a waist of a user, and a proximal support configured to support a proximal part of the user. A pressure applied to a thigh of the user by the proximal support in a sitting state in which the user is sitting may be greater than a pressure applied to the thigh of the user by the proximal support in a standing state in which the user is standing upright.

A percussive massage device that includes a housing, an electrical source, a motor positioned in the housing, a switch for activating the motor, and a push rod assembly operatively connected to the motor and configured to reciprocate in response to activation of the motor. The housing includes first, second and third handle portions that cooperate to define a handle opening, wherein the first handle portion defines a first axis, the second handle portion defines a second axis and the third handle portion defines a third axis, and wherein the first, second and third axes cooperate to form a triangle.

A catheter includes multiple shock wave generators electrically controlled to produce shock waves simultaneously, sequentially or in pre-determined patterns for intracorporeal treatment of blood vessels.

A passive energy-storage exoskeleton for assisting elbow joint is provided, which includes an upper arm unit, a lower arm unit, and an elbow joint unit located therebetween, the upper arm unit is rotatably connected with the lower arm unit. The elbow joint unit includes an anti-gravity mechanism, a coil spring mechanism, and a lower-arm-unit self-locking mechanism. The anti-gravity mechanism generates an equilibrant moment to eliminate the influence of the weight of the arm of the user and the weight of the device on the elbow joint. The lower-arm-unit self-locking mechanism is configured for locking/releasing the lower arm unit at any specified angle of rotation. The coil spring mechanism is configured for capturing and storing kinetic energy generated by rotation and swing of the arm of the user and releasing the energy as required.

An underwater rescue device, including a cabin provided with a hatch is provided, wherein the hatch is capable to open or close the cabin to form a confined space inside the cabin; a salvage device arranged inside the cabin, comprising a rescue platform and a gripper mechanism arranged on the rescue platform, wherein the rescue platform is movable, the rescue platform is capable to rotate relative to the cabin along at least one rotational axis and is capable to lift and lower to remove the cabin, and the gripper mechanism is configured to grab a drowning person and fix the drowning person on the rescue platform; a cardiopulmonary resuscitation device arranged inside the cabin; a drainage device arranged on the cabin; and a power device arranged on an outer side of the cabin. It has a high degree of automation and can provide immediate rescue for drowning personnel.

The disclosure provides a massager. The massager includes a telescopic rotary driver, where a movable member, a first gear, a second gear and a driving mechanism are arranged inside a fixed cavity of the telescopic rotary driver, a matching structure of the telescopic rotary driver is connected to a connecting structure, the connecting structure is connected to an elastic massage sleeve, thereby reducing the volume of the telescopic rotary driver. An electric heating element or a vibrator is arranged on the elastic massage sleeve, thereby realizing effect of vibration or heating during massage while completing telescopic motion and rotation.

A method of relieving a hyperirritable area on or surrounding a mandible. The method may include steps of selecting a first head component from a set of head components of a myofascial release apparatus (MRA); connecting the first head component with a handle of the MRA; locating the hyperirritable area on or surrounding the mandible of a patient experiencing muscle tension; contacting the hyperirritable area, via a contact member of the first head component, on or surrounding the mandible of the patient; actuating a motor of the MRA, via an electrical control assembly of the MRA, from an OFF state to an ON state for vibrating the first head component at at least one predetermined frequency; and relieving the hyperirritable area on or surrounding the mandible. Optional steps may be included when using other head components provided in the set of head components.

A dressing configured to provide radial or semi-radial expansion to a tissue site, which can increase the flow of fluids in and around the tissue site. The dressing may include an adhesive and a spring or biasing member that is able to expand radially while the dressing is worn, resulting in opening the tissue site to greater lymphatic flows. For example, the biasing member may partially or completely encircle the tissue site, allowing for radial force to be directed over the majority of the tissue site. The biasing member may have an unloaded state and a loaded state, and may be biased to the unloaded state. The dressing may also include a conformable layer between the biasing member and the adhesive. The conformable layer may conform to the contours of the anatomy of the patient. The conformable layer may increase the comfort of the dressing.
