Cerebral protection system
A cerebral protection system generally includes an array of cold packs, an insulating cover, and optionally a set of trays. The cold pack contains two reactive materials separated by a rupturable membrane. When the first reactive material and the second reactive material are mixed, an endothermic reaction occurs. The system can be used to induce hypothermia in selected regions of the brain when used. The system can be used to treat conditions including concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), heatstroke, cardiac arrest, respiratory arrest, anoxic brain injury, ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy.
GEL CAP
Presented is a gel cap adapted to relieve headaches, migraine, headache, fever, stress, or similar medical conditions in users. The gel cap includes one or more chambers defined by one or more stretchable and flexible pieces of fabric, and filled with a temperature-variable substance. In use, one of the chambers substantially covers a frontal region of a user's head and a front face extending until the cheekbones of the user, and another chamber substantially covers a rear region of the user's head extending from parietal to occipital region. The chambers are isolated from each other by a region extending from mesh covers that attaches one chamber to the other chamber and substantially cover ears of the user. The chamber covering frontal region of the user's head and the front face includes a V shaped cut-out section conforming to the nose of the user.
Cryotherapy dressing system
A dressing system for cooling skin or a wound site on a subject comprises a dressing having a reservoir for holding a liquid. The dressing may be configured for placement proximate to a postoperative surgical wound site of the subject or on the facial area of the subject. The dressing system includes a cooling chamber external to the dressing configured to cool the liquid. The dressing system includes a pump configured to circulate the liquid between the cooling chamber and the reservoir. The dressing system may include a suction element for applying suction at, or proximate to, the dressing for removing sweat or wound drainage.
HEATING PATCH FOR SKIN CARE
A heating patch for skin care including a substrate unit; an application electrode unit formed on the substrate unit in a predetermined pattern, and which includes a first electrode and a second electrode to which power supplied from the outside is applied; a heating unit including first and second heating electrodes, which respectively extend a predetermined length from the first and second electrodes so as to face each other at a certain length without being electrically connected, and a plurality of conductive heating materials formed to have predetermined areas in an overlapping part in which the first and second heating electrodes face each other and generate heat while allowing the first and second heating electrodes to communicate with each other during application of power; and a pair of cover members arranged on both surfaces of the substrate unit to prevent external exposure of the applied electrode unit and heating unit.
POSTOPERATIVE FACIAL COOLING PACK
A modular cooling pack and method of cooling a head of a patient includes a first pocket, a first cooling capsule, a second pocket, a second cooling capsule, a third pocket, a third cooling capsule, and a securement strap. Each of the first, second, and third cooling capsules are respectively configured to be received within the first, second, and third pockets, cooled, and applied to the head of the patient. The securement strap is configured to receive the first, second, and third pockets thereagainst and at least partially define a closed loop configured to be received about the head of the patient to thereby removably secure the first, second, and third pockets against the head of the patient in at least one of a plurality of assembled configurations.
METHOD FOR USING BEAUTY INSTRUMENT WITH MASK
A method for using beauty instrument with mask includes steps of: providing a beauty instrument with mask; applying the flexible mask of the beauty instrument with mask on a user's face; and turning on the controller and selecting a function button from the plurality of function buttons on the controller, inputting a current to the at least one heating layer in the flexible mask, and heating the at least one heating layer. The beauty instrument with mask includes a flexible mask and a controller. The controller is electrically coupled with the flexible mask.
CRYOTHERAPY DRESSING SYSTEM
A dressing system for cooling skin or a wound site on a subject comprises a dressing having a reservoir for holding a liquid. The dressing may be configured for placement proximate to a postoperative surgical wound site of the subject or on the facial area of the subject. The dressing system includes a cooling chamber external to the dressing configured to cool the liquid. The dressing system includes a pump configured to circulate the liquid between the cooling chamber and the reservoir. The dressing system may include a suction element for applying suction at, or proximate to, the dressing for removing sweat or wound drainage.
Personal Heating Dexterity Device
An apparatus for improving dexterity of the bare hands in cold temperatures includes heating pads 10 disposed on the forehead, cheeks and forearms. The heating pads 10a, 10b, 10c on the forehead and cheeks stimulate the trigeminal nerve area to increase blood flow to the fingers. The heating pads 10d, 10d on the forearms 24, 24 increase the temperature of the blood flowing to the hands. Thermocouples 32 in each heating pad 10 are connected to a set-point controller 28.
FACIAL TEMPERATURE PACK HOLDER
A facial temperature pack holder may comprise a housing shaped similarly to earmuffs, wherein the housing has a top portion, a first side portion, and a second side portion, and wherein the housing provides for one or more of a top pocket, a first side pocket, and a second side pocket, and wherein one or more of the top pocket, first side pocket, and/or second side pocket are configured to contain at least one temperature pack. The present invention may also provide for at least one flexible connection fixedly connected to the top portion and one or more of the first side portion and/or the second side portion. The present invention may further comprise an interior surface or lining that may be configured to impart pleasing tactile properties. The present invention may also provide for one or more elements of webbing that may line one or more outside edges of the housing.
STIMULATING DEVICE FOR HUMAN AND ELECTRIC THERMAL THERAPY DEVICE HAVING FUNCTION FOR THERMAL THERAPY TO TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT
Disclosed is a head-wearable stimulating device for human having a function for thermal therapy to temporomandibular joints, and an electric thermal therapy device. The stimulating device for human according to the present disclosure is a device having a function for thermal therapy to temporomandibular joints, and includes: a body configured to be worn on a head; and an electric heating main thermal therapy section disposed at the body to be able to perform thermal therapy on temporomandibular joints and generating heat using electricity. The stimulating device for human may further include a neck stimulation band having a neck thermal therapy section for performing thermal therapy on muscles at a neck, and disposed under the body to be able to be worn on a neck. Since the present disclosure performs thermal therapy on temporomandibular joints on a head, it is possible to stably apply stimulation for human including thermal therapy to target areas even if a user is moving. Further, since the present disclosure heats temporomandibular joint areas in an electric heating type, it is possible to remove a process of preheating a material such as silica gel in a thermal therapy pack using water or a microwave over a predetermined time before performing thermal therapy on temporomandibular joints. Further, it is possible to remove various inconveniences such as the difficulty in keeping/maintaining temperature accompanying use of existing thermal therapy packs or the problem of a skin burn.
