Medical Alert Stainless Steel Cuff Bracelet ~ Blank~ Stickers Included Review

Medical Alert Stainless Steel Cuff Bracelet ~ Blank~ Stickers Included
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have a relatively unusual medical condition called lymphedema that means I shouldn't have needles or an IV in one arm because a life-threatening infection could develop. While preparing to go on vacation, I was looking for a medical alert bracelet I could wear in case of an accident to warn medics and nurses but wouldn't look too obviously like a medical bracelet. I didn't have time to get anything engraved but couldn't find a ready-made bracelet that would work for me until I saw the Fashion Alert Medical Stainless Steel Cuff Bracelet with blank stickers, which seemed to fill the bill.
The bracelet is attractive (and made for larger wrists like mine). It looks like a nice piece of jewelry but the red medical alert symbol at each end would immediately be noticed by an ambulance medic or nurse. I was surprised to find that the 16 stickers included two with the correct instructions for right and left arm as well as for many other conditions.
The only reason I'm giving the bracelet 4 stars instead of 5 is that the stickers are tiny and hard to read. (I easily solved the problem by writing the instructions in ink on a 1/4" blank label and taping it to the inside of the bracelet with clear Scotch tape.)
I was also very pleased with how fast the item arrived from [...]I ordered it Friday night and received it the following Tuesday, in plenty of time to take it with me on vacation. I even got an email from the company (in response to my worried query about how long it would take) saying that they would make sure it went out on Saturday. I definitely plan to use this company again!

Standard Cupping Set w/10 Cups 8 magnets Review

Standard Cupping Set w/10 Cups 8 magnets
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the cheapest cupping set I could locate, but it does its job fine. Scientifically speaking, a perfect vacuum is about 760 mm Hg vac, and my unit was able to pull about 585 mm Hg vac. That is enough suction to cause plenty of pain, if that were one's goal. My order got here in 2 business days.
The cups are capable of working with more powerful suction devices with a homemade adapter, again, if that were one's goal.

The best deep-tissue massage available, massage cuppingtherapy is safe, useful and easy to learn.Cupping is an ancient method of causing local congestion. A partial vacuum is created in cups placed on the skin that draws up the underlying tissues. When the cup is left in place on the skin for a few minutes, blood stasis is formed and localized healing takes place.Cupping therapy has been further developed as a means to open the meridians of the body. Meridians are the conduits in the body through which energy flows to every part of the body and through every organ and tissue. There are five meridians on the back that, when opened, allow invigorating energy to travel the whole length of the body. It has been found that cupping is probably the best way of opening those meridians.Cupping has also been found to affect the body up to four inches into the tissues, causing tissues to release toxins, activate the lymphatic system, clear colon blockages, help activate and clear the veins, arteries and capillaries, activate the skin, clear stretch marks and improve varicose veins.

This Oximeter peforms as described, much better than I expected. It is right size for portability, the batteries are AAA available anywhere and last along time with the auto off feature this unit has. This unit came with a soft carring case which is a must, for protection and keeping clean. After deciding that this unit was the one I preferred from the others I reseached, Price shopping range differance was aprox. $25.oo

This oximeter detects SpO2 and pulse rate through the patient's skin and indicates the pulse intensity with a bar graph. It is not appropriate for continuous monitoring over 2 hours. The measurement of SpO2 is taken from the arterial pulse, thus sufficient pulsating blood flow is required. For people with weak pulse due to shock, low ambient/body temperature, major bleeding, or use of a vascular contracting drug, the SpO2 waveform (Pleth waveform) will decrease. In this case, the measurement will be more sensitive to interference, so make sure to keep your hand still on your lap or a surface during use of the oximeter.This oximeter is not suitable for use in an MRI or CT environment.

Circulation Leg Wraps Review

Circulation Leg Wraps
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These feel just like the ones used in the hospital when I had my surgery. This is a repeating pump up and release, squeeze and release leg wrap. The velcro parts can be somewhat difficult to manage as they stick to everything..but I find that when I take them off, I just loosen them and keep them stuck close to the right place and it works fine. If it seems too bothersome, just do it a few times, it is well worth the effort. These fit larger persons also. My husband is about 350 lbs. and 6'2" and they fit him, and they adjust smaller also. They may run big for a petite person. That is one of the objections I read on another review on Amazon. I am only 5 feet and they work okay for me, I am not petite.
My husband and I both use them. He has had a knee replaced and doesn't get much exercise. These leg wraps really feel good and relaxing for the legs. I would highly recommend them to anyone with swollen,sensitive or cold feet. If you are prone to blood clots or have heart disease, you will want to ask your doctor, because it really does help the circulation. I think that it would really help to prevent blood clots because of the circulaton benefits. My toes warmed right up and I wanted to just leave them on all day long and nap while doing it. I want to get another pair soon.

These leg wraps inflate and deflate to improve circulation, soothe sore muscles, and reduce swelling in your lower extremities. Similar to hospital compression boots that stimulate circulation in sedentary patients, the leg wraps have six airbags that wrap around the entire leg and inflate and deflate to help blood vessels expand and contract. The compression intervals stimulate circulation in the thighs, hamstrings, calves, and feet and help facilitate blood flow back to the heart. The corded remote allows you to select from three levels of intensity and choose from seven programs that pinpoint different areas and at varying intervals. Adjustable Velcro closures ensure optimal fit for all sizes.

Microlife PF 100 Peak Flow Meter for Spirometry with FEV1 Review

Microlife PF 100 Peak Flow Meter for Spirometry with FEV1
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This meter is really nice. It also has optional software and a USB cable available and / or a small printer available from the manufacturer. Amazon's price is competitive.
Without the software the machine takes your peak value from your trials and bases the zone system on this value.
With the software you can set a known peak flow reading (PEF). The meter automatically calculates whether subsequent readings are in the "green", "yellow" or "red" zone. Syncing the device with the software the first time was a bit tricky. You set a patient number for each unit which isstored internally. I eventually got it. Subsequent readings are automatic. Plug it in and it reads and plots both Peak and FEV1 values. The software would be especially convenient for a physician's office as it recognizes each unit and plots tracks the data for multiple devces. Plug a device in, the software recognises the owner and plots the data for them. You assign a patient number to each unit in the software and upload it to the unit. Next time you plug in the unit analysis and plotting is automatic. Easy.
FEV1 is an indicator of obstruction. As I understand it one should be able to expell the vast bulk of the air from one's lungs in one second (FEV1). If one were to know the total amount of air one could expel one would have a measure of vital capacity, VC. The ratio of FEV1 to VC, (FEV1/VC), is a primary indicator of obstruction. Values above 75%, as I understand it, are not so obstructive. Increasingly smaller values indicate increasing obstruction. In short, one can tell lots from this little brief case or purse sized meter.
For about $100 you can get print outs via the optional printer, or if you have your own computer, via the USB link and software. If you have lung trouble that requires monitoring you should get this or a similar device. It works great. If you fall into that category and are modestly computer literate you might well invest in the software too. A manual unit can cost upwards of $20. This is a better value.

This device is used to measure Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF) and Forced Expiratory Volume in 1-second (FEV1) in both children and adults. PEF is the fastest speed air can be blown out of the lungs after inhalation. FEV1 measures the volume after exhaling in 1-second. Peak Flow (PEF) and Forced Expiratory Volume in 1-second (FEV1) measurements can tell how well lungs are breathing by monitoring airflow. Doctors can have patients monitor changes in airflow and record the results. The automatic memory stores and provides easy access to the last 240 readings along with the time and date.

Average Reviews:

We needed to be able to check blood oxygen at home after my wife's severe heart attack, bypass surgery, 5 weeks in the hospital and rehab hospital and then coming home with Home Health. She was sent home with oxygen support. They would check blood ox frequently in the hospitals, but Home Health would only come a few times a week. Although there is no brand name on this unit, it works comparably to the ones used in the hospital and by home health. We were able to verify when she needed oxygen and sort out health concerns. It was a great value and we got it within a couple days with expedited shipping.

Professional Blood Pressure Set with Black Cuff for Adults Review

Professional Blood Pressure Set with Black Cuff for Adults
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was an EMT for many years and used numerous varieties of Blood Pressure cuffs on the job so when I needed one for my own personal use I knew what I was looking for. This served my purposes perfectly. I didn't need anything more than what a blood pressure cuff is to be used for. This item is easy to use and the gauge is as accurate as the fancy on the wall variety my doctor's office uses. What a bargain as well. I remember starting out thinking this is going to cost me a pretty penny but after just a little searching on Amazon.com I found the exact cuff I needed and at a significantly lower cost than many of the others with a saving of about $20.00. Thanks Amazon.
