摘要:
A device includes a hollow body delimiting a cavity for receiving the fluid, which cavity opens in a proximal opening and at least one distal opening for sampling and/or reinjection and a piston movably mounted in the receiving cavity to obturate the proximal opening. The device includes an assembly for selective distribution of a proximal part of the fluid located in the receiving cavity, including a fluid circulation channel that passes through the piston, which channel opens into the receiving cavity. The circulation channel and/or a distribution channel is able to cooperate or to communicate with an additional flow regulation device which can be manually actionable.

A stretchable laminated sheet with hydrophilic properties, which particularly has an excellent feeling and stability in wearing and is capable of efficiently enhancing the effect and efficacy brought about by a liquid component on a skin or other object, when the stretchable laminated sheet is impregnated with the liquid component and wet and then used on the skin or other object. A stretchable laminated sheet, which is obtained by partially thermocompression-bonding and laminating a hydrophilic short fiber layer extensible in at least one direction and an microfiber layer having a elastomer long fiber of a fiber diameter of 15 μm or less at 50% or more by weight, wherein discontinuous and regular concave and convex parts caused by the partial thermocompression bonding are formed on a surface of the hydrophilic short fiber layer that is exposed on one surface of the stretchable laminated sheet, the total area of the concave parts is in a range of 3 to 40% of the area of the surface of the hydrophilic short fiber layer, and at least the elastomer long fiber of the microfiber layer is softened and consequently joined to a fiber constituting the hydrophilic short fiber layer in a sheet thickness direction of a section where the concave parts exist, whereby the hydrophilic short fiber layer and the microfiber layer are integrated with each other.
摘要:
Apparatus and methods detect sleep disordering events. The apparatus may be configured to access one or more physiological signals generated by one or more sensors. The apparatus may be configured to detect, from the one or more physiological signals, seed events suggestive of sleep disordering events. The apparatus may be configured to compute features indicative of patterns within portions of the one or more physiological signals that are associated with the detected seed events. The apparatus may be configured to apply to a classifier, the computed features indicative of patterns of the seed events. The classifier may be trained to compute a degree of fit of the computed features to learned repetitive patterns of sleep disordering events. The apparatus may be configured to output an identification of sleep disordering event(s) corresponding with the seed events based on the computed degree of fit determined by the classifier.
摘要:
A facial wearable device for providing external stimuli to a user comprises a foldable frame, a flexible layer, an airbag layer, a plurality of heating pads, a plurality of vibrating motors, and a sensor. The flexible layer may couple to a proximal side of the foldable frame and be configured to couple to a facial area of the user. The airbag layer may be disposed between the foldable frame and the flexible layer and comprise a plurality of inflatable bladders configured to provide pressure to the facial area of the user. The plurality of heating pads may couple to the flexible layer and be configured to provide heat to the facial area of the user. The plurality of vibrating motors may couple to the flexible layer and be configured to provide vibration to the facial area of the user. The sensor may couple to the flexible layer and be configured to detect biometric data of the user. At least one of the plurality of inflatable bladders, the plurality of heating pads, and the plurality of vibrating motors may be controlled based on the biometric data.
摘要:
A facemask configured to be used by multiple sized/shaped heads can include a primary, a secondary and a tertiary seal. In some embodiments, the primary seal is contact with the nose and cheek regions; the secondary seal is in contact with the chin region; and the tertiary seal is in contact with the cheek and chin regions. In some embodiments, the tertiary seal extends inwardly and outwardly when applied to the face. In some embodiments, the mask includes test scissors.
摘要:
A method and apparatus can be used in the selection of correctly sized respiratory interfaces. The method includes the use of light beams to project sizing markers onto a patient's face, which enables the size of the patient's facial features to be measured relative to a set of interface sizes. A sizing apparatus can include a light source and beam splitters that will refract and project the light source into a series of beams that can be aligned on a patient's face in order to measure the features of the patient.
摘要:
A system for facial remodeling, including a device and methods of use, is provided. The system combines a topical composition configured to restore elastin, hyaluronan, or both to the skin and subcutaneous soft tissues of the face and neck with a facial mask to support and, in some embodiment, compress the tissue, to enhance and preserve the tissue remodeling effects of the composition. Some versions of the facial mask device include a means for electrically grounding the skin and soft tissues of the face, neck, and head, wherein the user receives local tissue benefits of “earthing.” In some versions, the facial mask is formed by combining different elements and configurations to compress skin and underlying soft tissue, bias areas of skin and soft tissue in a cranial direction, and ground the face, head, and neck tissues.
摘要:
A patient support includes a patient support surface, a DVT pump mounted in the patient support, and a port mounted at the patient support in selective fluid communication with the DVT pump. Optionally, the patient support further includes a control system to detect when a DVT device is coupled or in close proximity to the port and/or the type of DVT device. Further, the control system may be configured to control the pump based on the type of DVT device coupled to the port.
摘要:
This disclosure relates generally to methods and devices for use in treating eye conditions with implantable drug delivery devices. One method includes introducing an implant into the suprachoroidal space, wherein the interior volume of the implant is plugged with a drug-release material comprising at least one active agent that elutes through at least one opening in the implant, wherein the drug-release material degrades from the interior volume of the implant over a period time.
