Abstract: The various embodiments disclosed herein are devices that deliver electrical stimulation and/or vibration stimulation to the surface of skin in proximity to insulin injections and/or glucose testing in order to decrease or eliminate the pain of these procedures.

Abstract: The various implementations disclosed and contemplated herein relate to methods, systems, and devices for reducing or eliminating the pain of various procedures that pierce or otherwise generate pain in a patient's skin. Specific embodiments relate to devices and systems having at least two stimulation components that stimulate the target area with at least one of vibration and electrical stimulation. Some embodiments include stimulation components that are positioned on the fingers of the user, while other embodiments include a syringe-receiving component with stimulation components on flexible arms extending from the syringe-receiving component.

Abstract: Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to a device having a base and a stimulation module that can be attached to a patient's skin and actuated to mask the pain caused when sharp objects penetrate the skin. The stimulation module is designed to generate vibration energy, or alternatively, is designed to generate both vibration and electrical energy.

Abstract: The present invention is an electrode with one or more conductive surfaces and one or more access windows allowing needles, lancets and other similar objects to pass through or near the electrode and into the underlying skin layer. The electrode adheres to skin and surrounding mild electrical and vibration stimulation acts to mask the pain signals caused when sharp objects penetrate the skin. The stimulation is delivered by an attachable electrical unit designed to generate both the TENS and vibration stimuli while connected to the electrode. In addition, a flap which is attached to the electrode may serve as a bandage type dressing by flipping down over the access window(s) once the procedure is done. The present invention is an electrode with one or more electrically isolated conductive surfaces coupled to a TENS and vibration generating unit. It is designed to allow access to underlying skin and is meant to be easily produced, with the electrode being disposable after each patient use.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a sterilized disposable suture cutter worn preferably on the small finger of the same hand used to hold the needle holder. The device can cut by pulling the cutting edge against a somewhat taut suture material in a slicing fashion. Alternatively, the small finger can be flexed causing the cutting edge to be drawn against an opposing flat surface in a chopping motion. This second chopping method would be useful in cutting sutures where it would be difficult or impossible to place tension onto the suture. When not being used, the device does not interfere with the normal motions necessary to place sutures.
