SMART PERITONEAL DIALYSIS DEVICE
A device for monitoring and/or modifying a peritoneal dialysis treatment, including a memory which stores at least one treatment protocol; a control circuitry connected to the memory, wherein said control circuitry generates a report and/or modifies the treatment if an outcome of the treatment is not a desired outcome of the treatment protocol.
Multi-mode respiratory therapy apparatus, system, and method
A respiratory therapy apparatus is operable to deliver multiple types of therapy to a patient. The apparatus includes a main housing and a nebulizer tray that selectively attaches to a bottom of the main housing. The apparatus also includes a filter housing unit having an antenna surrounding a pneumatic passage and a transponder chip coupled to the antenna. The main housing has also has an antenna that surrounds a respective pneumatic passage of a main outlet port of the apparatus. The main housing includes a reader that controls communication between the antennae. The main housing of the apparatus also has a pivotable hose support plate, a firmware upgrade port underneath part of the top wall of the housing, and a graphical user interface (GUI) that displays various user inputs for control of the apparatus and that displays various alert conditions that are detected.
Infusion and monitoring system
Embodiments relate to a system, comprising a timer module comprising a timer configured to set a time for a session, an infusion module comprising an infusing device configured for administering a drug to a patient, a patient monitoring module comprising a first sensor configured for monitoring a physiological condition of the patient, a drug monitoring and control module comprising a second sensor configured for monitoring a drug delivery to the patient, an alarm generating module comprising signal generator that generates an indication signal when a value of the physiological condition is outside a predefined threshold, and wherein the time for the session is dynamically adjusted during the session, and wherein the drug delivery is dynamically adjusted during the session.
Emergency management implantable drug delivery systems
An implantable emergency management drug delivery system configured to deliver a medicament to reverse the effects of a drug overdose. The implantable emergency management drug delivery system including an implantable infusion pump configured to infuse a first medicament, and an emergency handling device having at least one physiological sensor configured to monitor a condition of a patient for a possibility of an overdose from the first medicament, a communication module configured to communicate the possibility of an overdose to the implantable infusion pump, and an implantable medicament delivery mechanism configured to deliver a second medicament to reduce one or more adverse physiological effects of the first medicament.
Delivery systems and methods for electric plasma synthesis of nitric oxide
The present disclosure provides systems and method for electric plasma synthesis of nitric oxide. In particular, the present disclosure provides a nitric oxide (NO) generation system configured to produce a controllable output of therapeutic NO gas at the point of care.
METHOD AND SYSTEM OF SLEEP MAINTENANCE
A method and system of sleep maintenance includes configuring a stimulation device comprising a transducer to emit a transcutaneous vibratory output to a body part of a subject, receiving physiological data of the subject from at least one sensor at a processor, providing a stimulation pattern for the transcutaneous vibratory output to be emitted by the transducer, the stimulation pattern comprising a perceived pitch, a perceived beat, and an intensity of the transcutaneous vibratory output, causing the transducer to emit the transcutaneous vibratory output in the stimulation pattern, determining a sleep state of the subject based on the physiological data, and altering the stimulation pattern based on the sleep state, wherein altering comprises at least one of (i) reducing a frequency of the perceived pitch, (ii) increasing an interval of the perceived beat, or (iii) reducing the intensity.
System and method for closed-loop patient-adaptive hemodynamic management
A system and method for patient-adaptive hemodynamic management is described. One embodiment includes a system for hemodynamic management including transfusion, volume resuscitation with intravenous fluids, and medications, utilizing monitored hemodynamic parameters including the described dynamic predictors of fluid responsiveness, and including an intelligent algorithm capable of adaptation of the function of the device to specific patients.
MULTI-MODAL WOUND TREATMENT APPARATUS
The wound treatment apparatus combines an internal negative pressure (vacuum) pump and an internal positive pressure (compressor) pump connectable to an external oxygen supply for providing both negative pressure wound therapy and hyperbaric oxygen wound therapy to a wound site. The apparatus also includes a user interface operatively connected to an electronic controller that monitors and actuates the vacuum and compressor pumps. The user interface and controller enables the apparatus to provide multiple modes of operation and the ability to selectively change between negative pressure therapy operational modes and hyperbaric oxygen operational modes.
Ureteral and Bladder Catheters and Methods of Inducing Negative Pressure to Increase Renal Perfusion
A method is provided for facilitating urine output from the kidney, including: (a) inserting a catheter including: a drainage lumen including a distal portion configured to be positioned in a patient's kidney, renal pelvis and/or in the ureter adjacent to the renal pelvis and a proximal portion, the distal portion including a retention portion including a funnel support including at least one sidewall, wherein the funnel support includes a first diameter and a second diameter, the first diameter being less than the second diameter, the second diameter being closer to an end of the distal portion of the drainage lumen than the first diameter, wherein the proximal portion of the drainage lumen is essentially free of or free of openings; and (b) applying negative pressure to the proximal portion of the drainage lumen for a period of time to facilitate urine output from the kidney.
Ureteral and Bladder Catheters and Methods of Inducing Negative Pressure to Increase Renal Perfusion
A ureteral catheter includes a drainage lumen having a proximal portion configured to be positioned in at least a portion of a patient's urethra and/or bladder and a distal portion configured to be positioned in a patient's kidney, renal pelvis, and/or in the ureter adjacent to the renal pelvis. The distal portion includes a retention portion for maintaining positioning of the distal portion of the drainage lumen. The retention portion includes a plurality of sections, each section having one or more openings on a sidewall of the retention portion for permitting fluid flow into the drainage lumen. A total area of openings of a first section of the plurality of sections is less than a total area of openings of an adjacent second section of the plurality of sections. The second section is closer to a distal end of the drainage lumen than the first section.
