This application discloses embodiments for a device contemplated for use by combat medics and first responders for rapid treatment of Zone 2 penetrating neck injuries. The device incorporates a support arm and an occlusion arm featuring an occluding head which is applied to the wound. In certain embodiments, the support arm is in the form of a detachable neck support which attaches to a laryngoscope blade.

The invention relates to the technical field of automobile safety, and provides a seat whiplash injury resistance optimization method based on test and simulation, and the method comprises the steps: firstly, through the comparative analysis of finite element simulation and whiplash test results of a seat, identifying main factors influencing whiplash injury, including design variables such as the thickness of a headrest rod and the thickness of a seat backrest supporting tube; sample points required by optimization are collected by using a Harmersley test design method, and an accurate approximation model is established through a radial basis function neural network (RBF). On the basis, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is adopted to carry out multi-objective optimization on seat design variables, and the purpose is to reduce the neck injury index (NIC) and the upper neck tension. The optimized design parameters effectively reduce the neck injury index and the upper neck tension, and the whiplash injury resistance of the seat is further improved. Through simulation verification, the error between the optimization result and the approximation model is controlled within a reasonable range, and the effectiveness and feasibility of the optimization design are verified.

The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to a cervical vertebra injury pressure sore prevention fixing pillow which comprises a controller and a fixing pillow body, a protective shell is arranged in the fixing pillow body, a partition plate is arranged in the protective shell, and the partition plate divides the interior of the protective shell into a fixing cavity and a driving cavity; a telescopic piece is arranged in the driving cavity, and a pneumatic massage assembly is arranged in the fixing cavity. A circulating box is arranged in the driving cavity, a circulating plate is arranged in the circulating box, a double-sided rack is arranged on the circulating plate, one end of the double-sided rack is fixedly connected with an output shaft of the telescopic piece, and a mechanical massage assembly is arranged on the double-sided rack; and an air supply assembly is arranged on the circulating box. Through cooperative operation of the mechanical massage assembly and the pneumatic massage assembly, mechanical massage operation and pneumatic massage operation are conducted on the head of a patient at the same time, diversified stimulation is provided for the patient, and therefore the possibility of pressure sores on the head of the patient is reduced while blood circulation of the patient is promoted.

The invention relates to the field of neurological rehabilitation medicine, and particularly discloses application of task-oriented training in promoting functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI). The invention is based on the discovery that task-oriented training (such as single globule grasping training) can activate an NRG1 / ErbB4 signaling pathway by up-regulating the phosphorylation level of neuro-regulatory protein-1 (NRG1) and a receptor ErbB4 of the NRG1, thereby promoting regenerative cortical spinal bundle (CST) axons and spinal motor neurons to form functional excitatory synapses and inducing the conversion of synaptic phenotypes to excitatory. The invention provides a treatment method including task-oriented training and a combined strategy for combined application of the treatment method and a treatment method for activating endogenous axon regeneration capacity (such as by inhibiting PTEN expression), the treatment method is used for improving upper limb movement dysfunction after spinal cord injury, particularly after neck injury, and a new scheme is provided for clinical treatment.
