A health care device includes a health care body for positioning a body part of a user, so as to maintain a first specific positional relationship with the body part, wherein the body part has an acupoint; an acupoint work piece for performing a health care work onto the use through the acupoint; and a work piece holder having a first end connected to the health care body and a second end for fixing the acupoint work piece, so that under the first specific positional relationship, the acupoint work piece performs the health care work under the condition that the acupoint work piece has a second specific positional relationship with the acupoint. A health care body, method and system are also provided.

A device for supporting a lower limb of a subject. The device has a housing for a lower limb and a limb support. The housing has a longitudinal axis aligned with a longitudinal axis of the lower limb. A driving mechanism connected between the housing and the limb support, causes movement of the limb support between a retracted position parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing and an extended position in which the limb support extends perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the housing to support the lower limb.

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for diagnosis, performance and/or regulation of physiological functions, in particular in an anaesthetized patient. The apparatus has a pressure device (10) for at least one body region or extremity (55) of a patient (50), wherein pressure-increasing means (21) and pressure-reducing means (22) are assigned to the pressure device (10), and a control device (30) is provided with which the pressure in the pressure device (10) can be controlled via the pressure-increasing means (21) and the pressure-reducing means (22).

The present disclosure relates to a massage apparatus including an arm massage part, the massage apparatus comprising: a frame connection part which connects a buttock frame provided in a main frame and a back frame provided in the main frame, and which rotates about a frame rotation axis on the basis of the movement of the back frame; a driving shaft which passes through the frame connection part and moves along an arc-shaped driving shaft slot on the basis of the movement of the back frame; and an arm massage frame holder which moves along a sliding rail on the basis of the movement of a plurality of links that transmit the movement of the driving shaft.

Methods, systems, and computer-readable mediums for generating, by an artificial intelligence engine, treatment plans for optimizing a user outcome. The method comprises receiving attribute data associated with a user. The attribute data comprises one or more symptoms associated with the user. The method also comprises, while the user uses a treatment apparatus to perform a first treatment plan for the user, receiving measurement data associated with the user. The method further comprises generating, by the artificial intelligence engine configured to use one or more machine learning models, a second treatment plan for the user. The generating is based on at least the attribute data associated with the user and the measurement data associated with the user. The second treatment plan comprises a description of one or more predicted disease states of the user. The method also comprises transmitting, to a computing device, the second treatment plan for the user.

Monitoring vital parameters of a wearer of a compression garment by analyzing a pressure signal waveform indicative of a fluid pressure in an inflatable and deflatable bladder of the compression garment. Analyzing the pressure signal waveform for an oscillating amplitude as a function of time and/or a representation of a pulse of the wearer provides an indication of blood pressure of the wearer.

In an embodiment, an exoskeleton that can be applied to a limb of a wearer (P) includes a first member (12) and a second member (14) with an articulation (16) set in between to enable a relative movement of angular orientation of the first member (12) and of the second member (14) over a range of angular orientation. The exoskeleton (10) can likewise present at least one of the following features: —i) the second member (14) includes: —a first structure (14a), which can be oriented at the aforesaid articulation (16) with respect to the first member (12) over the entire said range of angular orientation; and —a second structure (14b), which can be coupled to the limb of the wearer (P) with a latch device (20) for latching the second structure (14b) to the first structure (14a), the latch device (20) being selectively disengageable at a certain angular position of the aforesaid range of angular orientation to render the first structure (14a) orientable with respect to the first member (14) independently of the second structure (14b); and/or —ii) the exoskeleton includes a distal end platform (22) coupled to the exoskeleton via a ball joint (18).

A movement assistance device is provided with thigh frames, lower leg frames, and knee joint mechanisms which are disposed on the outer side and the inner side, respectively, of each knee of a person to be assisted. Each of the thigh frames has a first main frame, which extends in the longitudinal direction of a thigh from a base disposed on one side of the hip of the person to be assisted to the outer knee joint mechanism, a second main frame, which obliquely extends on the front side of the thigh from the base to the inner knee joint mechanism, and a body support member, which is extended between the two main frames on the rear surface side of the thigh.
