Portable oscillating compression systems including a compressor for compressing air; an accumulator tank for receiving and storing the compressed air from the air compressor; an air pressure adjustment module for modulating pressure of the compressed air when the compressed air exits the accumulator tank; a valve body assembly attached to the accumulator tank, a plurality of inflatable cuffs connected to the valve body assemble for receiving the compressed air from the valve body assembly; a controller for controlling the valve body assembly; a power supply; and a housing for containing said system.

Various embodiments of systems, devices, components, and methods for providing external therapeutic vibration stimulation to a patient are disclosed and described. Therapeutic vibration stimulation is provided to at least one location on or adjacent to a patient's skin (such as through clothing or a layer disposed next to the patient's skin), and is configured to trigger or induce resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of the patient. Inducing such resonance can aid in training autonomic reflexes and improve their functioning.

A body care apparatus capable of providing optimal therapeutic care for a body of a user is provided. The body care apparatus includes a wearable device worn on the body of the user so as to obtain activity data of the user, a massage chair performing a massage on each body part of the user while supporting the body of the user, a data analyzing unit inferring condition data for each body part of the user according to the activity data obtained from the wearable device, and a controller controlling an operation of the massage chair according to the condition data inferred by the data analyzing unit. The body care apparatus may infer the condition data by deep learning of an artificial intelligence algorithm or a sensor fusion.

A system and method for integrating and synchronizing an automated mechanical cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) device with components of cardiac catheterization laboratories so as to enhance the efficacy of each intervention. Synchronization can include image gating so that a monitor shows real time images during relaxation of the CPR, and a static image during compression of the CPR.

The present invention relates to a system and method for pulse cycle pressure modulation and negative pressure therapy in a cardio synchronous manner to improve distal limb blood flow applying negative or variable pressure to a portion of the body. The invention relates to methods and apparatus for the application of a sequential and gradient pulse wave for treating wounds that are difficult to heal or livelihood limiting claudication and/or ischemic rest pain. An integral part of the present invention includes methods to determine blood flow and effects of treatments on tissue.

A respiration device (1) supports cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and a method for operating a respiration device (1) supports cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The respiration device (1) has a control and regulation unit (7) in order to actuate an expiratory metering unit (3), and an inspiratory metering unit (2) such that, in a first phase, a current value of pressure is increased relative to a first pre-defined value (16) and such that, in a second phase, the current value of the pressure is reduced relative to the first pre-defined value (16).

A system to manage the sleep and/or the well-being of a passenger/user of an aircraft includes a chair to be installed in a cabin of the aircraft and interaction devices to interact with the user. The system further includes a user terminal configured to receive data relating to characteristics of a user profile of the user, and a control/command module connected to the user terminal, interaction devices and a database storing information relating to characteristics of a flight of the aircraft. The command/control module being configured to pilot the interaction devices according to the data relating to characteristics of the user profile and characteristics of the flight of the aircraft.

Systems and methods for affecting metabolism, such as the treatment of metabolic syndrome are disclosed. A method for treating metabolic syndrome can include one or more of the steps including identifying a region of the patient comprising glabrous tissue; positioning the region of the patient comprising glabrous tissue into an enclosed chamber; adjusting the relative humidity of the enclosed chamber sufficient to create a physiologic metabolic effect; and activating a convection fan within the chamber to promote heat transfer from the glabrous tissue. The method need not involve altering the temperature within the enclosed chamber.

An adjustable knee ankle foot orthosis for unloading weight from a knee joint afflicted with osteoarthritis, thus reducing pain and improving mobility, comprising: an upper and lower frame connected by an unloading hinge assembly, optionally comprising a sensor and processor allowing for remote or automatic control of brace tension. In embodiments, the brace includes a user mechanism that is capable of adjusting a tensioning element while the brace is being worn. In other embodiments, electronic motors, sensors, and indicators may be included in the brace to improve brace performance and user interaction.
