An compression therapy device which improves on available products by combining the efficacy of bulky, active pneumatic devices with a convenience approaching that of a passive non-pneumatic device. This is achieved by using an air cell (6) with a flexible inner and a rigid outer wall (10) which enables therapeutic pressures to be achieved at lower overall inflation volume. This in turn allows miniature low power, silent pump (3) to be used enabling the device to be worn unobtrusively under clothing. Such a device is targeted at users with long term chronic venous conditions, variants of oedema, recovering from surgery, requiring travel comfort, improved leg circulation or accelerated recovery from exercise or injury.

An apparatus of self-adjustment belt with bumps is used during physical exercise, stretching, or just worn around a user's body to provide support, resistance, create compression, and offer a self-guided automatic adjustment. The apparatus provides constant conscious body awareness and can help enhance balance reactions and re-educate muscles. The bumps of the apparatus help relieve muscle tension by applying pressure and gentle massage to chiropractic trigger points of the user's body. The apparatus is equipped with sensors providing health data and monitoring activity or any health changes. Additionally, the apparatus provides heating and/or cooling to desired areas of the user's body. Further, the vibrators inside the bumps of the apparatus offer a better massage through vibration, which can also be light tapping, or electric stimulation, to relieve muscle tension and strain, tone muscles, and stimulate the circulatory system of the user.

A compression therapy device may include a wearable article having independently inflatable and deflatable sealed cells. The location of the sealed cells in the article may be tailored to the anatomy of the device user. A method of providing the therapy device may include measuring one or more anatomical areas on the patient where compression is desired, providing the measurement to a device provider, and receiving an article having multiple sealed cells localized at the one or more anatomical areas. A method of manufacturing the therapy device may include receiving a measurement of an anatomical feature of a patient and determining a configuration of seals to be incorporated in a template article. The configuration may result in the sealed cells providing a pressure on the patient's anatomical feature.

Medical techniques include systems and methods for administering a positive pressure ventilation, a positive end expiratory pressure, and a vacuum to a person. Approaches also include treating a person with an intrathoracic pressure regulator so as to modulate or upregulate the autonomic system of the person, and treating a person with a combination of an intrathoracic pressure regulation treatment and an intra-aortic balloon pump treatment.

Systems including an elliptical machine and a processing device. The processing device may be configured to receive, before or while a user operates the elliptical machine, one or more messages pertaining to the user or a use of the elliptical machine by the user. The processing device may be also configured to determine whether the one or more messages were received by the processing device. In response to determining that the one or more messages were not received by the processing device, the processing device may be configured to determine, via one or more machine learning models, one or more actions to perform. The one or more actions may include at least one of initiating a telecommunications transmission, stopping operation of the elliptical machine, and modifying one or more parameters associated with the operation of the elliptical machine.

A computer-implemented system includes one or more processing devices configured to receive attribute data associated with a user, generate, based on at least one of a first bariatric procedure to be performed on the user and a second bariatric procedure already performed on the user, a selected set of the attribute data, determine, based on the selected set of the attribute data, at least one of a first probability of being eligible for the first bariatric procedure to be performed on the user and a second probability of improving a bariatric condition of the user subsequent to the second bariatric procedure being performed on the user, and generate, based on the at least one of the first probability and the second probability, a treatment plan that includes one or more exercises directed to modifying the at least one of the first probability and the second probability, and a treatment apparatus configured for implementation of the treatment plan.

A computer-implemented system includes one or more processing devices configured to receive user information associated with a user, generate a selected set of the user information, determine, based on the selected set of the user information, at least one of a first probability of surviving one or more procedures and a second probability indicating an improvement, resulting from the one or more procedures, in quality-of-life metrics for the user, generate, based on the at least one of the first probability and the second probability and on the selected set of the user information, one or more recommendations of whether the user should undergo the one or more procedures, and generate, based on the one or more recommendations, a treatment plan that includes one or more exercises directed to modifying the at least one of the first probability and the second probability.

A computer-implemented method is disclosed. The method includes receiving, at a computing device, a first treatment plan designed to treat an invasive surgical-related health issue of a user. The first treatment plan comprises at least two exercise sessions that, based on the invasive surgical-related health issue, enable the user to perform an exercise at different exertion levels. Next, while the user uses the electromechanical machine to perform the first treatment plan, receiving, at the computing device, data from sensors configured to measure the data associated with the invasive surgical-related health issue and transmitting the data. One or more machine learning models are used to generate a second treatment plan. The second treatment plan modifies at least one exertion level, and the modification is based on a standardized measure comprising perceived exertion, the data, and the invasive surgical-related health issue. The method additionally includes receiving the second treatment plan.

A computer-implemented system includes a processing device configured to receive a plurality of user and blood vessel characteristics associated with a user, generate a selected set of user and blood vessel characteristics, determine, based on the selected set of the user and blood vessel characteristics, a probability that angiogenesis will occur, and generate, based on the probability and the selected set of the user and blood vessel characteristics, a treatment plan that includes one or more exercises directed to modifying the probability that angiogenesis will occur, and a treatment apparatus configured to implement the treatment plan while the treatment apparatus is being manipulated by the user.
