  • Publication number: 20230277372
    Abstract: A system and method of monitoring, controlling and/or detecting events during the removal of heat from subcutaneous lipid-rich tissue is described. In some examples, the system detects an increase in temperature at a treatment device in contact with the skin of a subject, determines that the increase in temperature is related to a treatment event, and performs an action based on the determination. In some examples, the system shuts off the treatment device, alerts an operator, or reduces the cooling in response to a determined treatment event.

  • Publication number: 20230277232
    Abstract: A method for cryogenically treating tissue. A connection is detected between a probe having a disposable secure processor (DSP) to a handpiece having a master control unit (MCU) and a handpiece secure processor (HSP), the probe having at least one cryogenic treatment applicator. The probe is fluidly coupled to a closed coolant supply system within the handpiece via the connection. An authentication process is initiated between the DSP and the HSP using the MCU. As a result of the authentication process, one of at least two predetermined results is determined, the at least two predetermined results being that the probe is authorized and non-authorized.

  • Publication number: 20210272669
    Abstract: A method for managing therapy data using computing nodes is disclosed. A computing node is associated with a blockchain identifying therapy data and features. The method includes: obtaining, by a first computing node from a first medical device, first therapy data, the first computing node being associated with a first blockchain; validating the first therapy data using features associated with the first blockchain; and in response to validating the first therapy data, adding the first therapy data to the first blockchain; receiving a request from a second medical device to obtain the first therapy data from the first block chain; providing, from the first computing node to the second medical device, and in response to receiving the request, the first therapy data to the second medical device, wherein the therapy data is used by the second medical device to provide a patient therapy recommendation.
