| 122 | System for Cooling a Hyperbaric Chamber | US13923467 | 2013-06-21 | US20130343875A1 | 2013-12-26 | Bruce Elgin McKeeman |
| A system for cooling a hyperbaric chamber includes a compressor, a first hose, a cooling unit, a second hose, and a hyperbaric chamber. The first hose fluidly connects the compressor to the cooling unit, and the second hose fluidly connects the cooling units to the hyperbaric chamber. Compressed air from the compressor travels through a first pressure relief fitting and a second pressure relief fitting, where the compressed air is depressurized according to the system requirements. During the depressurization, the compressed air cools down because of the depressurization and creates a comfortable environment within the hyperbaric chamber. | ||||||

| 126 | Patient lifter with intraoperative controlled temperature air delivery system | US13373557 | 2011-11-18 | US20120079656A1 | 2012-04-05 | Randall J. Lewis |
| A combination patient-transfer and intraoperative heater has top and bottom chambers separated by a barrier. The patient rests on the top chamber, which has plural apertures for discharge of temperature-controlled heated or cooled air at regulated pressure. Heated or cooled air is delivered to the area surrounding the patient, maintaining body temperature during anesthesia. The bottom chamber has plural apertures. When air pressure is low or off, the bottom chamber is flat and un-inflated. When air pressure is increased, air enters the bottom chamber and the apertures emit air, creating an air cushion facilitating lateral movement of the lifter device. The device is light, flexible, easily stored, and preferably disposable, thereby reducing risk of infection and avoiding cleaning costs. The device performs two functions that now require separate devices and air blowers, it saves space and reduces both costs and complexity in the operating room. | ||||||

| 131 | Temperature modulated inflated and deflated support cushion | US12587605 | 2009-10-08 | US20110083275A1 | 2011-04-14 | Leonard W. Glass |
| The invention disclosed herein is directed to a temperature modulated, inflated and deflated support cushion and methods of use for providing comfort and reducing or alleviating the development of pressure sores for persons confined to wheelchairs or beds for extended time periods. The disclosed invention is particularly adaptable as a support cushion in the form of a mattress, mattress cover, seat cushion, or seat cushion cover and can be combined with any mattress or seat to provide temperature modulated, inflating and deflating cellular support cushions. Two components of the disclosed invention are critical. Utilizing a plurality of flexible and hollow cells capable of being repeatedly filled and depleted with a fluid, preferable air, the cells being arranged so that (1) the cells being depleted are next to or contiguous only with cells that are not being depleted, those cells being depleted of fluid must not be in contact with the individual such that a pocket of air exists between the depleted cell(s) and the individual, and (2) the temperature of the cells is maintained at or about an average of about 5 degrees Fahrenheit less than the average body temperature of a healthy human, but not less than about 25 degrees Celsius. The phrase “pocket of air” as used herein is intended to convey a gap or space between deflated cell(s) and the skin (even in circumstances where a sheet or other cover is between the cushion and the skin) such that skin surrounding the pocket or air is supported by non-depleted cells, and the skin directly above or on the region of depleted cells is not in contacted with the depleted cells. In this manner, those portions of the skin above the pocket of air created by the fully depleted cell(s) are, in essence, not in contact with the cushion to allow complete disassociation between those portions of the skin and the depleted cell(s). The term “average” in reference temperature of the cells is intended to convey that the temperature can be regulated so as not to be uncomfortable for the individual using the cushion, and need not be maintained at a constant temperature. | ||||||
