Abstract
A therapeutic pressure applicator with a sensor and transceiver is worn by a patient during daily activity to apply pressure to a specific body part, and used in a system with a device such as a cell phone to receive and display real-time pressure data to alert the patient and physician when the pressure is outside a desired range. The applicator includes a securement member and a pressure adjusting device with a pressure adjusting dial, pressure sensing component, pressure focusing plate and cushion. Rotating the dial retracts or extends the sensing component, focusing plate and cushion. The applicator has a computer module with a CPU, memory, transceiver, power source and a force sensor. A pressure button is pressed into engagement with the sensor to transmit real-time focused pressure data to the CPU. The transceiver communicates the real-time cushion pressure data to the cell phone that displays and stores the data.
