Multi-Mode Pelvic Exercise Probe
US Patent:
7628744, Dec 8, 2009
Filed:
Jan 10, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/621796
Inventors:
Craig A. Hoffman - Waco TX, US Gerry M. Hoffman - Fort Worth TX, US Michael J. England - Fort Worth TX, US
Assignee:
Anatasol, LLC - Austin TX
International Classification:
A63B 23/00
US Classification:
482148, 601 46, 601591, 128905
Abstract:
A perineometer exercise probe for home or clinical use assesses the strength of pelvic floor muscles and provides audible, visual and tactile biofeedback signals as training aids during pelvic exercises. The exercise probe is selectively operable in a passive reaction mode, in which audible, visual and tactile biofeedback signals proportional to pelvic muscle contractions are generated, and in an active vibrating mode in which therapeutic vibrations are applied directly to internal pelvic musculature with or without co-generation of biofeedback signals proportional to the strength of pelvic muscle contractions; and in a combination of both modes simultaneously. The probe reacts the pelvic contraction forces and thus provides passive tactile feedback signals that are experienced simultaneously with audible, visual and vibration-induced tactile biofeedback signals for improving the endurance and strength of pelvic floor muscles. Biofeedback signaling is facilitated by wireless two-way communication between the probe and a portable monitor.
Perineometer With Wireless Biofeedback
US Patent:
7645220, Jan 12, 2010
Filed:
Nov 8, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/268923
Inventors:
Craig A. Hoffman - Waco TX, US Gerry M. Hoffman - Fort Worth TX, US Michael John England - Fort Worth TX, US
Assignee:
Anatasol, LLC - Austin TX
International Classification:
A63B 71/00
US Classification:
482148, 606591, 128 25
Abstract:
A perineometer for home or clinical use assesses the strength of pelvic floor muscles and provides audible and visual biofeedback signals as training aids during pelvic exercises. Impedance signals proportional to vaginal contraction pressure forces are developed by a transducer sleeve that is mounted on a vaginal probe. A battery-powered RF transmitter module contained within the probe transmits wireless impedance signals to a hand-held receiver equipped with an audio-visual display monitor. The probe reacts the pelvic contraction forces and thus provides a direct tactile feedback signal that is used in combination with audible and visual feedback signals for improving the endurance and strength of pelvic floor muscles.
