Abstract: A system and method for the automatic stimulation of a vagus nerve for post-stroke rehabilitation is disclosed. The system includes an application subsystem having an electrode positioned to stimulate the vagus nerve and coupled to a user outside of a surgical setting. The system also includes a waveform generator communicatively coupled to the electrode, and a triggering subsystem including a receiver configured to detect the presence of a tag. The triggering subsystem is communicatively coupled to waveform generator and is configured to automatically trigger the stimulation of the vagus nerve upon detecting the presence of the tag. The tag is located proximate a rehabilitation context such that the tag is detected when the user is using the rehabilitation context, resulting in the vagus nerve of the user being automatically stimulated by the electrode in response to the user's post-stroke rehabilitation training.

Abstract: A cold therapy dynamic hand splint system is disclosed. The hand splint system includes an electric pump, a sleeve, an inflatable bladder, a refrigeration device, and a fluid reservoir. The sleeve includes a fluid-tight cavity filled with a cold fluid pressurized by the pump, and is wrapped around the forearm of a user. The inflatable bladder has an expanded state where the bladder is charged with the fluid pressurized by the pump and chilled by the refrigeration device, and a collapsed state where the bladder is substantially empty. The bladder is small enough that a portion fits inside a palm of a contracted spastic hand while in the collapsed state, and large enough to press the spastic hand open when the bladder is in the expanded state. The fluid is maintained within a therapeutic temperature range, and is in fluidic communication with the sleeve and the bladder through the pump.
