Both ECC and DF devices are able to operate autonomously, yet able to communicate with and cooperate with another device when present. Some ECC and DF devices are adapted to be physically and/or electrically coupled to each other. One ECC device includes a backboard, a chest compression member, a communication module, controller, and at least one sensor, electrode lead or electrode. One DF device includes a defibrillator module, a controller, and a communication module that can communicate with the ECC communication module. The communicating ECC and DF devices may deliver ECC, pacing, defibrillation, ventilation, and cooling therapies, and may deliver instructions to human assistants, in a coordinated and cooperative fashion. | 05-10-2012 |
| 20140024977 | SOFT TISSUE THERAPY DEVICE AND METHOD OF USE THEREFOR - A therapy tool system includes a rigid therapy tool for passing across a patient's skin for loosening subcutaneous tissue. The rigid tool includes an electrically conductive portion engageable with a patient's skin. A current source is provided for providing an electric current. A connector member is provided that is selectively attachable and removable from the rigidtool. The tool member is coupled to the current source for conducting current between the current source and the tool. The rigid tool includes a conductive path for conducting current from the connector to the electrically conductive portion of the tool, to enable current delivered to the connector portion from the current source to be conducted to the electrically conductive portion of the tool and transferred from the tool through the patient's skin to subcutaneous patient tissues. | 01-23-2014 |

One exemplary embodiment comprises an actuator that repeatedly compresses the bottom of a foot and an electrical muscle stimulator that repeatedly sends electrical pulses to a muscle to facilitate a muscle contraction. The system may also include a compression garment, such as a compression sock to be worn while undergoing both the repeated compression cycles and the repeated electrical pulses. The system may also include an item of footwear, wherein the actuator portion is partially or completely contained within the item of footwear. Additionally and/or alternatively, the electrical muscle stimulator may be partially or completely contained within the item of footwear. | 07-31-2014 |
| 20140276259 | MUSCLE AND CONNECTIVE TISSUE SUPPORT DEVICES AND SYSTEMS COMPRISING AN INWARDLY FACING PRESSURE-POINT BUTTON AND METHODS RELATED THERETO - Muscle and connective tissue support systems particularly suited to help muscles having a specific point needing support. The systems are comprised of a muscle and connective tissue support element such as straps or a compression sleeve that encircle or otherwise attach to the muscle, and at least one pressure-point button is sized and configured to apply significant supportive pressure to the point injury. The pressure-point button can be at least about 1 cm wide (about 0.5″) and 0.5 cm deep (about ¼″). The muscle and connective tissue support element and pressure-point button are cooperatively configured such that the pressure-point button can be relocatably attached along an inwardly facing surface of the muscle and connective tissue support element that is to be placed at a desired location on the muscle and connective tissue support element. | 09-18-2014 |
