An example system includes a first wearable computing device, and at least one additional wearable computing device. The first wearable computing device is configured to retrieve information regarding a series of tasks to be performed in treating a patient in cardiopulmonary arrest. The information includes, for each task, an indication of a user to perform the task, an indication of a time point to perform the task. The first wearable computing device is further configured identify one or more subsets of the information, and transmit each subset to a different corresponding one of the additional wearable computing devices. Each additional wearable computing device is configured to receive, from the first wearable computing device, at least one of the one or more subsets of the information, and output, for each task within a received subset, a corresponding prompt to perform the task at the respective time point associated with the task.

Stool for use with a toilet

A stool is provided that provides a raised heel squat position to a user that engages the stool. The raised heel squatting position promotes a healthy and productive experience on a toilet. The stool may be collapsible for easier storage and transportation. The stool may be adjustable to provide custom fittings to different size users. Additionally, the stool may be intelligent and may provide a customized immersive experience to a person on a toilet.

System and method for synchronizing external compression of a limb for increased blood flow

Embodiments relate to devices, systems and methods of assisting blood flow return to the heart from a limb. The device comprising a wearable garment (115) and a compression apparatus (110) embedded in the garment (115) for applying an external compression according to a compression sequence to a muscle of a limb of a user based on real-time measurements regarding a cardiac cycle having a diastolic phase and systolic of the user and real-time measurements of muscle activity. The compression sequence is synchronized to comment when both the local blood flow at the limb is in the diastolic phase and the muscle is in a non-contracted state.

WALKING ASSIST DEVICE

A walking assist device includes: a frame; a pair of right and left arm portions; a pair of right and left grasp portions provided on the pair of right and left arm portions; a plurality of wheels including a drive wheel; a drive unit driving the drive wheel; a grasp portion drive unit configured to move the grasp portions; a battery; a control unit controlling the drive unit; and a grasp portion state detection unit detecting a state of each of the grasp portions. The control unit includes: a grasp portion state observation unit observing a grasp portion state that is a state of the grasp portions; a walking state evaluation unit evaluating a walking state of the user based on the grasp portion state observed using the grasp portion state observation unit; and a correction adjustment unit adjusting a control command for at least one of the drive unit and the grasp portion drive unit based on the walking state evaluated using the walking state evaluation unit.

WALKING ASSIST DEVICE

A walking assist device has a frame, a pair of right and left arm portions, a pair of right and left grasp portions, wheels including a pair of right and left drive wheels, drive units, a battery, a drive control unit, acting force measurement units that measure acting forces on the grasp portions, and holding units that hold the grasp portions at a predetermined position in the front-rear direction of the arm portions set in advance. The walking assist device travels forward together with a user. The holding units generate a restoring force for returning the grasp portions to the predetermined position. The drive control unit controls the drive units on the basis of acting forces calculated on the basis of detection signals from the acting force measurement units.

Apparatus and methods relate to a pneumatic compression therapy device configured to suggest content to the patient based on a determined disease state, the content pertaining to suggested changes in lifestyle based on a standard of care. In an illustrative embodiment, the suggested changes may include modifications to treatment location, treatment time, diet, eating habits, or sleeping schedule. Various examples may further sample the patient's health and automatically adjust a treatment parameter within a predetermined parameter range based on a history of measured parameters, such as limb volume, for example. In coordination with the therapeutic treatment, the therapy device may deliver suggested content to guide the patient to make more healthful lifestyle choices to reduce recovery time and improve patient health outcomes.

IRRADITION HEAD FOR A MASSAGE GUN

An irradiation head adapted to be detachably attached to a massage gun, the irradiation head being configured to reciprocate in forward and backward motion, comprises one or more irradiation sources, and a converter configured to convert the forward and backward motion of the irradiation head into electrical energy. The one or more irradiation sources are configured to be activated by the converted electrical energy, wherein the converter includes a coil based linear alternator, the coil based linear alternator including, a coil wrapped around a hollow cylindrical body, and a magnet disposed within the hollow cylindrical body.

Percussive therapy device with interchangeable modules

A percussive therapy device 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. A massage attachment is removably received on a distal end of the push rod assembly at a first location. The percussive therapy device also includes an attachment module associated with the housing of the percussive therapy device at a second location. The second location is different than the first location. The attachment module is configured to provide an active effect.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF SYNCHRONIZING CHEST COMPRESSIONS WITH MYOCARDIAL ACTIVITY

Systems and method for providing chest compressions to a patient during cardiopulmonary resuscitation may comprise at least one ECG sensor configured to obtain ECG signals, an automated chest compressor configured to provide chest compressions and at least one processor, memory and associated circuitry of a medical device communicatively coupled with the at least one ECG sensor and the automated chest compressor. The at least one processor may be configured to receive and analyze the ECG signals, determine, based on the analysis, whether the patient is in a condition of unconscious hypotension with organized ECG, analyze, in response to a determination that the patient is in the condition of unconscious hypotension with organized ECG, the received ECG signals to detect a QRS complex, and generate an output to apply a chest compression at a predetermined time relative to the detected QRS complex.
