Tissue compression devices with a combination of fixation and tension straps and methods of using the same are described herein. The tissue compression devices include a combination of fixation and tension straps that are used together to fix or attach the tissue compression device over selected tissue at a selected location on a patient and to apply pressure to the selected tissue. In one or more embodiments, the fixation straps are sued to fix or attach the tissue compression device and the tension straps are used to provide tension that is converted to pressure on the selected tissue.

Tissue compression device with fixation and tension straps

Nasal stimulator body

Tissue compression devices having a tension limiting strap retainer and methods of using the same. The tissue compression devices described herein may include a strap retainer that is attached to a base by an elastic member that is configured to draw the strap retainer towards the base. The tissue compression devices described herein may also include a tension indicator that extends between the base of the tissue compression device and strap retainer. The tension indicator may be configured to limit the travel distance of the strap retainer away from the base in response to forces acting on the strap retainer. The tension indicator may also provide visual feedback to a user of the tension force in a strap to attach the tissue compression device to a patient.

Electronic device

A pharmaceutical delivery device with triggered automatic needle insertion and manually controlled pharmaceutical injection. The pharmaceutical delivery device includes a housing, a pharmaceutical containing needled syringe having an injection tip that is recessed within the housing when the syringe is in a first position and which projects from the housing when the syringe is in a second position, a syringe advancing assembly operable to automatically advance the needled syringe from the first position to the second position, a plunger including an input portion projecting from the housing for manual access by a user, wherein the plunger is operable by the user directly shifting the input portion when the syringe is disposed in the second position to inject pharmaceutical from the syringe through the needle at a rate adjustably controlled by a user during the injection, and wherein the plunger includes a plunger extender automatically movable within the housing from a first location to a second location upon the needled syringe advancing from the first position to the second position, wherein the plunger extender, when in the second location, occupies a space vacated by the needled syringe during advancement from the first position to the second position, whereby the plunger input portion remains stationary relative to the housing during the advancement of the needled syringe.
