An acquisition unit acquires a classification result obtained by classifying training assistants by performing a cluster analysis based on first rehabilitation data about rehabilitation performed by the trainee by using the rehabilitation support system, the first rehabilitation data including at least assistant data indicating a training assistant and index data indicating a degree of recovery of the trainee. A learning unit generates a learning model, the learning model being configured to input second rehabilitation data including at least the action data indicating an assisting action performed by the training assistant to assist the trainee and output the action data for suggesting a next action to be performed by the training assistant. The learning unit generates the learning model by using, as teacher data, the second rehabilitation data for which pre-processing has been performed based on the classification result.

Disclosed is a massage apparatus. The massage apparatus includes a vibration array including a plurality of vibration devices, a driver configured to vibrate the plurality of vibration devices, and a processor configured to control the driver to generate a stimulus at a stimulus point between the plurality of vibration devices by simultaneously vibrating two or more vibration devices among the plurality of vibration devices.

A massaging tool includes a housing that includes a first shell member and a second shell member. The first shell member defines a first interior cavity, and the second shell member defines a second interior cavity. The housing is configurable in a first orientation where the first shell member is secured to the second shell member and a second orientation where the first shell member is decoupled from the second shell member.

A device used for applying an antiseptic preparation, such as an antibiotic solution or water, or all other substance deemed necessary in treating a wound prior to arrival at a hospital or other treatment facility or for continuing wound therapy and maintenance while hospitalized, in an out-patient facility or at home. A loose-fitting bag is provided which encloses the wound by securing the open end(s) to the patient by closing means. The bag further includes ports or resealable flaps that allow access to the wound for treatment and cleaning while containing all fluids resulting therefrom. A high friction scrub surface is provided in the bag. A method and apparatus are also provided for wound maintenance with a lavage system.

An apparatus for promoting vascular circulation, including a garment configured to at least partially surround an anatomical structure of a patient. A compression element is coupled to the garment and configured to compress at least a portion of the anatomical structure when the compression element is actuated. A controller is configured to selectively actuate the compression element over a plurality of cycles. Each cycle has an actuated time during which the compression element is arranged to exert a first pressure and an unactuated time during which the compression element is arranged to exert a second pressure different than the first pressure, and the controller is configured to use a random value in determining the deflated time of one or more of the cycles.

A method and device for controlling a walking assist device is disclosed. The method includes determining a first state variable for a gait state of a user wearing the walking assist device based on a gait of the user, obtaining a second state variable which is smoothed and time-delayed from the first state variable, obtaining a third state variable by applying a torque control variable to the second state variable, and determining an assist torque to be provided by the walking assist device based on the obtained third state variable.

Systems and methods for identifying a condition of a user. A treatment apparatus is configured to be manipulated by the user for performing an exercise, and an interface is communicably coupled to the treatment apparatus. One or more sensors are configured to sense one or more characteristics of an anatomical structure of the user. A processing device and a memory is communicatively coupled to the processing device. The memory includes computer readable instructions, that when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to: receive, from the sensors, one or more sensor inputs representative of the one or more of characteristics of the anatomical structures; calculate an infection probability of a disease based on the one or more characteristics of the anatomical structures; and output, to the interface, a representation of the infection probability.

A method that includes receiving treatment data associated with a user capable of using a treatment device to perform a treatment plan. The method also includes receiving user related data (URD) associated with the use and receiving alignment data associated with the user while the user engages in at least one activity. The method also includes identifying, based on at least the treatment data, the URD, and the alignment data, at least one alignment characteristic associated with the user and modifying at least one aspect of the treatment plan in response to receiving, from a healthcare professional, treatment plan input including at least one modification to the at least one aspect of the treatment plan.

A chair-type massage machine includes a main body on which a person to be treated is to be seated, a holding part at least part of which is placed inside a container recess to hold a first operation unit, and a moving mechanism for moving the holding part. The holding part is reciprocatably moved between a first position in which the first operation unit is contained in the container recess and a second position in which the first operation unit is exposed. The chair-type massage machine further includes a second operation unit for moving the holding part.

The knee joint weight-bearing apparatus includes a buttock attaching part, a lower-leg attaching part, and two thigh connection units. Each thigh connection unit includes a front thigh link and a rear thigh link. The buttock attaching part, the lower-leg attaching part, the front thigh link, and the rear thigh link constitute a four-bar linkage. The buttock attaching part is configured so that when a user applies his/her weight to the buttock attaching part, a tensile force is generated in the front thigh link and a compressive force acts on the rear thigh link. The rear thigh link includes a gas spring that is configured to be stretchable in a longitudinal direction thereof and generates a resistive force against the compressive force.
