Abstract: A compression device is provided. The compression device includes at least one support, a pressure applicator connected to the at least one support and a regulator. The pressure applicator is configured to apply compressive pressure to a treatment zone on an abdomen of a subject. The regulator controls the amount of compressive pressure applied to the subject by the pressure applicator. The regulator controls an amount of the compressive pressure from a minimum pressure to a maximum pressure as selected by the subject.

Abstract: A portable, protective enclosure for coupling to a patient support includes a collapsible frame, a canopy drape, a pair of gloves and sleeves configured for receiving hands and arms of a user, and a zipper disposed along one of the side surfaces of the drape, wherein the side surface is not folded about itself when the zipper is in an open state. A pair of filters are disposed on opposing sides of one of the side surfaces of the canopy drape, the filters together providing high efficiency particulate air filtration for at least 99.97% of airborne particulate 0.3 microns in diameter. Gas-permeable media is provided for air intake. A fan in communication with the first and second filters is provided for creating negative pressure in the internal region of the canopy drape, the fan configured to evacuate air from the internal region. A negative pressure indicator also is included.

Abstract: A system for illuminating medical tubes is disclosed. The system includes an optical fiber secured to and extending along a length of a medical tube, and a light source configured to transmit a light through the optical fiber. The system further includes a controller in communication with the light source, and configured to control the light source. Additionally, the system includes an optical junction having a first input configured to secure a portion of medical tubing, a second input configured to receive and direct the light from the light source to the optical fiber, and an output configured to secure the optical fiber and the medical tube. The first input and the output are fluidly connected via the optical junction. The light illuminates the medical tubing via the optical fiber.
