Aspects of the present disclosure can be related to a warming device, systems, and methods of using. The warming device can include a clinical garment comprising a body portion adapted to cover a portion of a patient, an inner surface configured to face the patient, and an outer surface opposite the inner surface. The body portion can include sleeves sized and positioned for receiving the patients arms. In addition, the clinical garment can include an insulative layer comprising an insulative edge portion disposed on the clinical garment. The insulative edge portion is configured to make the warming device non-linting.

A multi layer advanced heating pad comprising a reflective layer proximate to a heating layer and a black body a layer configured to concentrate and amplify heat emitted from the heating layer and reflected by the reflective layer.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a warming system. The warming system includes a light device having a light source configured to be positioned proximate to a patient support having a patient support surface. The light source can also be configured to generate infrared radiation. The warming system can also include a flexible sheet having a first side configured to reflect at least some of the generated infrared radiation from the light device toward a portion of the patient support surface.

The present invention comprises a heat transfer vest. The vest is configured to mount a plurality of heat transfer packs on its interior surface. In the preferred embodiments the appropriate portions of the interior surface are covered in a hook-compatible material. In these versions, the thermal transfer packs include one or more hook panels that are used to attach the packs to the interior surface.

A heat transfer system that may be used to absorb heat from a human user. A wearable vest is provided. The innermost surface of the vest is covered in hook-compatible material. One or more thermal transfer packs are configured to be attached to the vest. One or more hook panels on each thermal transfer pack is used to stick the thermal transfer pack directly to the innermost surface of the vest.

A heating pad includes a heat pad with an anterior and posterior side. The heat pad includes a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. The second layer is located in between the first layer and the third layer. The first layer is located on the posterior side, while the third layer is located on the anterior side. The second layer has a wire selectively heated to increase the temperature of the heat pad. The third layer is a reflective material positioned to reflect heat from the second layer towards the first layer, decreasing heat emitted on the anterior side of the heat pad. The heating pad also includes a battery storage section for securing a battery. The battery is in electronical communication with the wire of the heat pad. The heating pad further includes an engagement mechanism to secure the heating pad to a user.

A portable emergency blanket for providing thermal insulation to a patient is disclosed including a cover that houses a first insulating portion, the first insulating portion being configured to insulate a patent's legs in use; and a second insulating portion, the second insulating portion being configured to insulate a patient's torso in use, and the second insulating portion is configured to provide greater insulation than the first insulating portion.

A heat exchange module alone or part of a system including a control console. The module includes a channel assembly and a heat exchange stack attached thereto, and can be used to directly cool and/or heat tissue or skin. The channel assembly includes a liquid channel. The stack can include a pair of spaced plates with thermoelectric coolers exchangers, heat reflective layers, and a core composite layer which keeps the plates spaced. To provide flexibility of the module to better fit on round body parts the stack can include a thermally-conductive plate construction between the plates which has rotational flexibility axes in the X and/or Y directions between plate portions. Optionally the channel can include windows to which the plate portions are sealed. The heat exchange stack separately or together with the channel assembly can be secured in the thickness direction with mechanical securements such as sewing or tacking to also provide for greater flexibility.

The invention provides a temperature-regulation apparatus with a segmented metal-containing layer. The metal-containing layer has an electrically insulating coating and a plurality of mutually electrically insulated planar metal segments to increase insulation by reducing thermal emissivity whilst minimizing the hazards of an electrically conductive layer. The temperature-regulation apparatus may comprise a blanket which may be used to actively supply temperature regulated air for regulating the temperature of a subject, in which case it includes at least one port, or it may be used to passively maintain the temperature of a subject, or it may comprise a temperature-regulation garment.

A therapy system in which one or more eye patches are used to apply thermal energy to meibomian glands of an eye of a user to improve the release of meibum. The system comprises includes a headband which is worn by a user and in which a control unit is provided. At least one eye patch is provided which is connectable to the control unit. Each eye patch includes an outer area, an inner area with a flexible heating element located in the inner area. Electrical connections are used to connect the flexible heating element to the control unit to provide at least heat therapy to at least the meibomian gland in the eyelids. A charging unit is provided for recharging a rechargeable battery in the control unit.
