Abstract: A multi-channel data aggregation system communicates non-human animal data among multiple remote user networks, wherein users are provided for non-human animals among user networks for each of caregivers, owners, and breeders. Unique user interfaces are respectively associated with each user network, and configured to link a hosted server network to respective user devices. The hosted server network associates primary stored data for an individual non-human animal with each respective caregiver, owner, and breeder, and further associates derivative stored data with at least familial non-human animal relations and their respective caregivers, owners and breeders.

Abstract: A thermal therapeutic apparatus is provided which includes a resilient shell, a thermal exchange material, and a flexible sleeve. The resilient shell includes an outer surface and inner cavity in which the thermal exchange material is disposed. The flexible sleeve at least partially covers the shell and defines a vent region which permits communication of air and through the sleeve.

Abstract: A set of ergonomic handgrips and arm pads make the use of crutches or other walking assist devices more comfortable and less likely to cause repetitive stress injuries. A metacarpal protrusion of the each handgrip is angled outward at about 5 to 25 degrees from front to back when installed to place the user's wrists at a more ergonomic angle (approximately 15 degrees inward rotation). The metacarpal protrusion produces a substantially flat surface with a downward slope. Each handgrip spreads the load out over the hand of the user eliminating pressure. The handgrips can be fitted on crutches, a walker, a cane, or another walking assist device. The arm pad has a pair of protrusions that produce a recess on the side facing away from a user's chest which engages a user's arm and keeps the crutch top positioned correctly while the crutch is in use by the user.

Abstract: A headband that includes a connecting material and a headband body connected to each other at their respective opposing ends. The headband body has an inner and outer edge, which may be curved. The distance between the inner and outer edge generally becomes shorter nearer the ends of the headband body. If curved, the inner and outer edges may have different radii, such that the tube is generally crescent shaped. The general crescent shape creates a more comfortable fit and results from the ratio of the radius of the inner edge curve to the radius of the outer edge curve being greater than about 1 and less than about 6. A more comfortable fit can also result from a particular ratio wherein the width at the center of the headband body is greater than the width at the ends of the headband body.
