Neurosurgical ultrasonic focusing assisted three-stage atomization cooling and postoperative wound film forming device
A neurosurgical ultrasonic focusing assisted three-stage atomization cooling and postoperative wound film forming device has a transducer housing and a nozzle, wherein a horn is arranged in the transducer housing, at least two layers of piezoelectric ceramic sheets are arranged at the top of the horn, an electrode sheet connected with an ultrasonic generator is arranged between two adjacent layers of piezoelectric ceramic sheets, the bottom of the transducer housing is of a hemispherical structure, and a plurality of piezoelectric elements connected with the ultrasonic generator are arranged inside the hemispherical structure; and the nozzle is arranged at the bottom of the horn and connected with a medical nanofluid storage cup, compressed gas can also be introduced into the nozzle, and an electrode is also arranged inside the nozzle.
TREATING BLEEDING AND BLEEDING DISORDERS VIA HIGH INTENSITY FOCUSED ULTRASOUND STIMULATION OF THE SPLEEN
Apparatuses and methods for reducing or limiting bleeding in an animal by focused ultrasound (FUS) stimulation of the spleen. The apparatuses and methods may be used treat blood disorders such as hemophilia, or to reduce hemorrhage in surgery or due to traumatic injury. The methods may be non-invasively administered to the patient by transcutaneous application of ultrasound energy.
CONNECTED BODY SURFACE CARE MODULE
A wearable treatment and analysis module is provided. The module is positioned on or near a body surface region of interest. The module provides remote access to sensor data, treatment administration, and/or other health care regimens via a network connection with a user device and/or management system.
Personal use extracorporeal low intensity shock wave device enhanced user features and functions
A device which utilizes low intensity extracorporeal shock therapy for purposes of treating soft tissue damage, cellulite reduction, or erectile dysfunction, to permit a simple, inexpensive, robust, home use solution which permits self-applied treatment for various parts of the user's body with a form factor, display, information, guidance, tutorials and training, marketing communication and purchase opportunities, viewing angle, timers, annunciators, sound attenuation, and payment options which provide an untrained amateur user with all tools and guidance necessary to properly, effectively, safely and affordably self-administer treatments.

ULTRASOUND APPARATUS FOR MECHANICALLY APPLYING ULTRASOUND WAVES EFFICIENTLY
The present invention relates to an ultrasound apparatus for efficiently applying ultrasound waves over a treated area by mechanically moving the ultrasound transducer over an area larger than the Effective Radiating Area (ERA) comprising: (a) an ultrasound transducer, connected by wiring, for dispersing ultrasound waves; (b) an electric actuator for spinning a crank, wherein a shaft is eccentrically attached to said crank for rotatably whirling said transducer in circles.
EXTRACORPOREAL THERAPEUTIC ULTRASOUND FOR PROMOTING ANGIOGENESIS
Systems and methods can include wearable, non-invasive ultrasound modalities for treating a variety of medical conditions, including but not limited to peripheral vascular disease. The modality could be therapeutic ultrasound (TUS), and be configured to promote angiogenesis within a patient via stimulation of cavitation and shear stress, among other mechanisms.
PERSONAL USE EXTRACORPOREAL LOW INTENSITY SHOCK WAVE DEVICE ENHANCED USER FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
A device which utilizes low intensity extracorporeal shock therapy for purposes of treating soft tissue damage, cellulite reduction, or erectile dysfunction, to permit a simple, inexpensive, robust, home use solution which permits self-applied treatment for various parts of the user's body with a form factor, display, information, guidance, tutorials and training, marketing communication and purchase opportunities, viewing angle, timers, annunciators, sound attenuation, and payment options which provide an untrained amateur user with all tools and guidance necessary to properly, effectively, safely and affordably self-administer treatments.
SOFTWARE-IMPLEMENTED PROCESS FOR PREVENTING REUSE OF A REPLACEABLE CLEANSING ATTACHMENT
A software-implemented process for preventing reuse of a replaceable cleansing attachment includes detecting, via a chip in the replaceable cleansing attachment, that the replaceable cleansing attachment is attached to a base. The method also includes during a first use, receiving, at an acoustic transducer, high-frequency current from the base, wherein the acoustic transducer converts the high-frequency current into sound waves to assist in an abrasive removal of wound coatings. And the method includes recording, to the chip, an indication of the first use of the replaceable cleansing attachment, wherein the chip is configured to prevent a second use of the replaceable cleansing attachment when the chip has the indication of first use of the replaceable cleansing attachment stored thereon.
Methods and apparatuses for reducing bleeding via electrical trigeminal nerve stimulation
Disclosed are apparatuses and methods for reducing or limiting bleeding (e.g., blood loss and/or bleeding time) in an animal by trigeminal stimulation. The apparatuses and methods may activate one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve. This activation may be invasive or non-invasive.
