  • Publication number: 20170128258
    Abstract: Devices and methods are presented whereby cryotherapy may be conducted with both an enhanced healing process and a reduced risk of collateral ischemic injury when compared with existing options. A cold effect is applied to an injured tissue for a sufficient time to lower the temperature sufficiently to suppress local pain and inflammation. In an alternating manner a warm effect is applied to the tissue at the same treatment site with sufficient intensity to raise the temperature at the treatment site to equal or exceed the baseline value for a sufficient time to cause an increase in local blood flow equal to or exceeding the baseline value, after which the cycle is repeated until therapy is no longer needed.

  • Publication number: 20160227267
    Abstract: A system and method includes a user receiving device receiving a linear content signal from a head end and a client device in communication with the user receiving device. The user receiving device generates renderable signal from the live linear content and communicates the linear content signal or renderable signal to the client device as a display signal. The client device comprises a virtual reality application defining a television display area for a graphics display of a virtual reality display device. The virtual reality application scales the linear content signal or the renderable signal to correspond to the television display area to form scaled content. The virtual reality display device displays virtual reality graphics with the scaled content in the television display area.
