| 20120031142 | Ice Bag with Air Release Valve for Therapeutic Treatment - A system simultaneously applies compression and cooling to a body part. An ice bag has a removable cap for inserting ice and removing water. An air release valve in the cap allows release of air from the ice bag without removing or loosening the cap. A compression wrap is a unitary sheet of elastic material having a central body with straps extending therefrom. A hole in the central body receives the neck of the ice bag, which is positioned over the body part. The unitary body and straps of the sheet apply pressure via the ice bag. Air released into the ice bag from melting ice is removed via the air release valve without disturbing the compression wrap or the cap. The compression wrap contracts to compensate for the volume of the released air, thus maintaining continuous pressure on and thermal contact with the body part. | 02-09-2012 |

| 20220133530 | Fidget Cold Pack - A cold pack that can be fidgeted in a human hand. The cold pack encases a heat-transferring substance and provides a rigid portion suitable for being securely held by and readily fidgeted with fingers of said human hand. Heat-conducting grooves and heat-insulating surfaces are built into the rigid portion, with acute edges, jutting bumps, guard rails and other textures to provide grip. Fingertips alternate between holding the cold pack by said grooves and surfaces, thereby applying dynamic cold therapy to the same fingertips, rest of fingers, the hand, and other body parts requiring treatment for swelling, inflammation and trauma arising from friction, compression or minor burn injuries. Timely application of dynamic cold therapy can thus prevent formation of blisters in fingers and hands commonly seen in string players, musicians, sportspeople and workers caused by repetitive contacts with objects, and by unexpected contacts with hot surfaces. | 05-05-2022 |
