Abstract: A medical cooling device for reducing the body core temperature of a patient and a method for operating the same are provided. The cooling process provided by the medical cooling device is based on the state or degree of shivering of the patient.

Abstract: A cooling system (1) for use in a non-invasive medical cooling process to cool at least one portion of the body of a person (2) by means of a cooling fluid flowing through a cooling pad (3), comprising a first pump 70, a fluid outlet conduit (20), a fluid inlet conduit (40 and; —a second pump (80) arranged to pump cooling fluid through a fluid bypass conduit (60) from the fluid inlet conduit (40) to the fluid outlet conduit (20), wherein—the cooling system (1) is arranged such that cooling fluid is transported from the tank (10) to the fluid outlet conduit (20) when the first pump (70) is operated and such that cooling fluid is transported from the fluid inlet conduit (40) to the fluid outlet conduit when the second pump (80) is operated.

Abstract: A mouth cooler is provided. The mouth cooler comprises a first peripheral cooling winding shaped and dimensioned to cool the lower and upper jaw, and at least one second cooling winding in arrangement with the peripheral cooling winding shaped and dimensioned to cool at least the blood entry to the tongue.

Abstract: A cooling pad is provided for use in a non-invasive medical cooling process for cooling at least one portion of the body of a person by means of a cooling fluid flowing through said cooling pad in use. The cooling pad comprises a bottom sheet and a top sheet and of flexible and fluid tight material. Moreover the cooling pad comprises at least one flow guide for guiding a portion of a flow of fluid in the flow channel towards an inner or outer wall thereof.

Abstract: A head cap for securing a cooling pad for conducting medical cooling of the head and neck of a patient is provided.

Abstract: Food products for the dietary management of a diet-responsive disease or condition, a method of dietary management of a diet-responsive disease or condition, and a system for providing such food products are disclosed. In one embodiment, the system involves (a) providing the name of at least one medical professional or medical professional's office or practice for consultation by participants and, if applicable, for writing orders for food products for participants; (b) providing controlled access to a supply of food products; and (c) providing the food products to the participants. The food products can be supplied in any suitable manner. Suitable manners of providing a supply of food products include, but are not limited to providing the food products at retail outlets, such as stores that have pharmacies, and drug stores, or through a website.

Abstract: The invention relates to a retainer clip or latch attached to a fence post, such as a plastic fence post, for use in electric fences, that can be used with different types of fence strand members, and that is operated by hand to permit easy securement and removal of the fence strand members. The clip includes first and second portions which are hingedly attached together at one end and are releasably engageable with each other at the opposite end. The clip defines a loop at one end for holding an elongate fence strand member, such as wire, and an elongated area for holding a broader fence strand members, such as electric tape. The loop and elongated area are separated by a finger which extends from the second portion and into a notch in the first portion. The clips can be directly attached to a head portion of a T-shaped fence post at spaced locations along its length.

Abstract: A plastic fence post for use in electric fences, which can be quickly and easily adjusted in height to permit changes in the height of the fence, and which can be used with different types of fence strands. The fence post includes an elongated, T-shaped plastic lower post member having one end adapted for insertion into the ground and an opposite end having a T-shaped slot formed therein. A plastic upper member, which can either be an upper fence post or a post cap, includes a T-shaped tongue extending therefrom that is secured within the T-shaped slot so as to secure the upper member to the lower post member. A pin extends through aligned holes in the end of the lower post member and the T-shaped tongue in order to fasten the upper and lower members together. The height of the fence can be increased by disposing the tongue of the upper fence post within the T-shaped slot, and using the pin to secure the posts together.

Abstract: An insulator for attachment to a chain link fence and that is configured so as to support fence strand members generally parallel to the ground. The insulator includes an elongate body portion having first and second ends, with a mounting structure, preferably a clip structure, at the first end of the body portion for attaching the insulator to the chain link fence. A fence strand retainer is disposed at the second end of the body portion for retaining the electric fence strand member. The fence strand retainer is oriented at an acute angle relative to the mounting structure, with the acute angle preferably being about 45 degrees due to the pattern of the mesh forming the chain link fence, such that when the insulator is mounted on the chain link fence and the electric fence strand member is held by the fence strand retainer, the fence strand member will be oriented substantially parallel to the ground.
