According to one example, a suction-based attachment system includes a body plate configured to be positioned against a pelvis of a person, and a suction docking protrusion coupled to the body plate. The body plate has a back surface configured to face the pelvis of the person, and a front surface configured to face away from the pelvis of the person. The suction docking protrusion includes a suction docking surface that is configured to operate as an attachment area for a suction cup included on a prosthetic phallic device, via an air vacuum formed in-between the suction docking surface and the suction cup included on the prosthetic phallic device.

An elevation device used in the performance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) includes a base and an upper support pivotably coupled to the base. The upper support is configured to elevate the individual's upper back, shoulders and head when pivoted. The upper support is expandable lengthwise. The upper support includes a neck support that is configured to support the individual's spine in a region of the individual's C7 and C8 vertebrae throughout elevation of the upper back, shoulders and head.

An automated resuscitation system is provided, which can improve the outcome of patients suffering ventricular fibrillation or the ventricular tachycardia variants of cardiac arrest. This outcome can be achieved by a device that integrates automatic mechanical or pneumatic capability with electrical countershock capability such that the probability of defibrillation or cardioversion with return of spontaneous circulation is increased.

According to some embodiments, a method of promoting hair growth or hair stimulation in a subject comprises applying vacuum or suction using a handpiece assembly along a targeted portion of the subject's skin surface where hair growth or hair stimulation is desired and providing at least one treatment material to said targeted portion of the subject's skin surface, wherein the application of vacuum or suction helps promote hair growth or stimulate hair.

A sex toy comprising a body housing a motor; a shaft coupled to the motor; a massaging member mounted over the shaft; and a controller coupled to control the motor to drive the massaging member in a reciprocating motion along the length of the shaft is described. The reciprocating motion results in a change in length of the sex toy. The change in length may comprise about 20 mms to about 100 mms; about 25 mm to about 90 mm; or about 30 mm to about 85 mm. One full stroke of the reciprocating motion may be performed in about 0.5 to about 2.0 about seconds; about 0.6 to about 1.5 seconds; or about 0.7 to about 1.0 seconds.

Articles for providing synergistic, intense sensations of sexual pleasure for both partners engaging in intimate relations are provided. An article as provided herein is worn by a wearer and stimulates the sexual nerve synapses in the lower pelvic region of the users to simultaneously provide a near-ultimate sexual pleasure experience for each of the persons involved. The articles are washable, re-usable, and provide synergistic effects not conferred by any single article of manufacture ever contrived.

A limb rehabilitation device has a plurality of rollers with cups. The rollers are mounted on spring mounts. The forearm or another limb may be placed between the rollers for therapeutic massage of the limb and the soft tissue thereon. The cups of the rollers aim to produce compression, shearing, and lifting of the tissue.

Techniques and devices for extending a piston, for example connected to a medical device such as a mechanical CPR device, to accommodate different sized patients, are described herein. In some cases, a piston of a mechanical CPR device may include an inner piston at least partially slidable into an external piston sleeve. In one aspect, an external piston spacer may be attached to an outward surface of the inner piston to extend the length of the piston. In another aspect an internal bayonet sleeve may contact one or more locking rods at various positions, enabling adjustment of the length of the inner piston. In yet another aspect, a piston adapter may be removably attached to the end of the piston. In all aspects, the change in length of the piston may be detected and used to modify movement of the piston, for example to more safely perform mechanical CPR.
