Automated Fundal Massager
An automated fundal massager for massaging the uterus in a patient, the apparatus comprising at least one attachment mechanism securing the massager to the patient, a body housing the massager and at least one massager pressingly engaging the fundus having at least one power supply, at least one fundus engagement device, at least one fundus engagement device cover, and at least one system controller in communication with the fundus engagement device, whereby a massager is placed on the patient to engage the fundus of the uterus through massage postpartum to maintain uterine contractility thereby managing postpartum bleeding.
Compression sleeve with massage rollers
The compression sleeve with massage rollers is a medical device. The compression sleeve with massage rollers applies a compressive pressure to an appendage of a patient. The compression sleeve with massage rollers is a mechanical device. The compression sleeve with massage rollers generates a kneading action that massages the appendage of the patient. The compression sleeve with massage rollers comprises a compression structure, a plurality of massage mechanisms, and a control circuit. The plurality of massage mechanisms and the control circuit attach to the compression structure. The control circuit electrically connects to the plurality of massage mechanisms. The control circuit controls the operation of the plurality of massage mechanisms.

INTELLIGENT COMPRESSION WRAP
An intelligent compression device for controllable compression. The compression device includes a compressible body and a microprocessor. The compressible body encircles a limb of a user and includes an elastomer layer and an activation layer. The elastomer layer includes voxelated liquid crystal elastomers that contract in response to a stimulus. The activation element, which is positioned proximate to the elastomer layer, supplies the stimulus. The microprocessor actuates at least a portion of the activation element layer.
Knee pain reduction strap
A knee pain reduction strap device is described. The device is configured to be used by a user alone who is experiencing knee pain. A primary strap is configured to be placed beneath the arch of the foot while a secondary strap, disposed atop the primary strap, helps to provide additional friction, and ensure that the device remains in position. Handles disposed on ends of the primary strap facilitate manipulation of the device by the user while in a sitting position to perform stretches of the ankle, calf, shin, and knee of the user, helping to alleviate pain over time.
Compression Device Especially for Preventing Deep Vein Thrombosis
A compression device particularly suited for DVT prophylaxis includes a disposable wrap and a re-usable controller removably mounted on the wrap to apply a tensioning force to the wrap when it is encircling the limb of a patient. The wrap includes an RF chip with a unique identifier and the controller includes an RF sensor and processor to authenticate the wrap before commencing a compression cycle. A kiosk is provided for storing a plurality of wraps for use by patients and a plurality of controllers to be used with any of the wraps. The processor of each controller can control an electric motor in the controller to tighten and loosen the wrap according to a compression protocol between a pre-tension compression force and maximum compression force. The amount of movement of the wrap changes as the patient's physiology changes while maintaining the pre-tension and maximum compression forces.
