Hyperbaric oxygen chamber manufactured utilizing additive manufacturing
11648164 · 2023-05-16 · ·

The present invention relates to an adaptive hyperbaric oxygen chamber designed to function as a medical apparatus in order to treat a subject suffering from any FDA approved medical condition. The hyperbaric oxygen chamber is designed and constructed in such a way that only one subject can be allowed to sit in an upright seated position, unless the pediatric seat is occupied by a pediatric patient and the adult is seated in the standard seat to accompany the pediatric patient. The upright patient seat when treating a pediatric patient is in the extended position while the occupant enters and exits the mono medical hyperbaric oxygen chamber and the seat is returned to the fixed position inside the hyperbaric oxygen chamber while the overhead door is closed, the seat being operated by an extension device. The hyperbaric oxygen chamber is made, using additive manufacturing technology. The hyperbaric oxygen chamber provides two hundred to five hundred liters of one hundred percent oxygen per minute to the pressure vessel. A nitrogen scrubber is connected to a discharge air duct of this hyperbaric oxygen chamber that converts the oxygen being expelled through the air duct to one hundred percent nitrogen.

Lovemaking apparatus for the disabled with pivoting tabletop platform and pivoting wheelchair seat

The lovemaking apparatus includes a table having a slidable platform pivotally mounted in a U-shaped opening defined in an end of the table and a wheelchair having a chair assembly that is pivotally mounted on a wheelchair frame. The wheelchair may be rolled to the platform end of the table so that the seat and leg rest portion of the chair assembly is below the free end of the platform, linear actuators may be actuated to pivot the platform at an angle using switches mounted at the platform end of the table, and the platform may be slid downward towards the seat of the chair assembly of the wheelchair. Linear actuators mounted on the wheelchair frame may be actuated to tilt the back of the chair assembly rearward and raise the seat of the chair assembly upward to position partners for sexual relations.

Pressure Differential-, Ultrasound-, and Magnetic-Based Methods for Treating Viral Infections and other Pathogenic Diseases, Sterilizing Medical Equipment, and Enhancing Fatty Tissue Reduction
20220008276 · 2022-01-13 ·

The present disclosure is directed to methods of treating subject patients (such as humans, animals, plants) suffering from a pathogenic disease such as COVID-19 in humans, via the administration of pressure changes in the patient sufficient to cause a pressure differential to be created between the inside and outside of the outer membrane or envelope of the pathogen thereby destroying or disabling the pathogen. In one embodiment, a hyperbaric chamber is used to administer pressure increases and/or pressure decreases to create such pressure differential. The hyperbaric chamber could comprise a single user or multi-user unit, a pressurized body suit, or the pressurizable fuselage of an aircraft. In another embodiment, patients are placed in an aircraft, and the cabin pressure, while on the ground, or in flight, is adjusted upwardly or downwardly to create such pressure differential. The pressure differential methods can also include the use of external gases to enter the patient's body and/or lungs to facilitate disruption of the pathogen outer membrane as well as application of variations in temperature and/or humidity. A mobile treatment unit is also disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of using ultrasonic cavitation or MRI (or other sonic or magnetic field forces sufficient to disrupt the functionality of the pathogen), or a combination of ultrasound and MRI on the exterior of a patient in a desired anatomical region of the patient to assist with the destruction or disabling of a pathogen infecting that anatomical region of the patient, e.g., the patient's lungs, said method being employed at ambient pressures or in an increased or decreased pressure environment created within a hyperbaric chamber. The ultrasound and/or MRI methodologies could also be used to treat other pathogenically afflicted areas of the patient's body. Additionally, a pressure-differential method of sterilization of medical equipment is disclosed employing a hyperbaric or other pressure or vacuum chamber. Also disclosed is an enhanced method of nonsurgical fat reduction in humans by employing ultrasonic cavitation within a hyperbaric chamber, including the use of HBOT therapies. Furthermore, the use of these methodologies and systems have application in treatment of patients post-infection and in other areas of medicine and health, such as for example, treating wounds, the effects of aging, inflammation, and the effects of other maladies.

MOBILE LIFT APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING CARDIOVASCULAR REHABILITATION AND TRAINING OF ELDERLY, OBESE AND INJURED PERSONS
20210290463 · 2021-09-23 ·

An apparatus for facilitating cardiovascular rehabilitation and training has an overhead rigging attachable to a harness worn by a user, wherein the overhead rigging is in communication with an upper translatable member slidably joined atop a lower translatable member slidably joined to an upper support of a frame assembly. Columns of the frame assembly retain a plurality of spaced weights to which said overhead rigging is attached via cables. In this arrangement, a user may wear the harness and, via the overhead rigging and weights, have his or her weight against the ground dramatically reduced while being permitted to move about an area substantially defined by the frame assembly. As configured, the upper and lower translatable members move orthogonally to one another providing a tremendous range of motion to the user within the area substantially defined by the frame assembly.
