Apparatuses and methods for defining an isolation area around an individual. Such an apparatus includes a frame having two opposing and spaced-apart side walls, an interior region within an interior of the apparatus and defined by and between the side walls, and one or more connecting members spanning the interior region and coupling the opposing side walls. Isolation barriers are coupled to the frame and extend outwardly from the interior region. The isolation barriers are configured to define an isolation zone surrounding the interior region that corresponds with the isolation area around an individual located within the interior region. An opening is providing for access by the individual to and from the interior region within the frame.

The present disclosure relates to a booth-type mobile infectious disease clinic, and more particularly, to a mobile infectious disease clinic, which is a booth-type mobile infectious disease clinic which makes it possible to assemble and disassemble a large number of mobile infectious disease clinics, that allows a test subject to be tested by a healthcare provider using an infectious disease test kit while exposure of the body parts is minimized and the healthcare provider and the test subject are isolated in the booth-type mobile infectious disease clinic, that performs sterilization of an infectious disease using an ultraviolet C (UV-C) lamp to reduce the time taken for disinfecting the clinic, and that allows the light radiation intensity of the UV-C lamp to be adaptively adjusted according to the body temperature of the test subject.

The present disclosure relates to a tent-type mobile infectious disease clinic, and more particularly, to a mobile infectious disease clinic, which is a tent-type mobile infectious disease clinic that makes it possible to promptly install a large number of mobile infectious disease clinics due to having mobility and being easy to install and remove, that allows a test subject to be tested by a healthcare provider using an infectious disease test kit while the test subject is isolated in the tent-type mobile infectious disease clinic, the healthcare provider is outside the tent-type mobile infectious disease clinic, and exposure of the body parts is minimized, that performs sterilization of an infectious disease using an ultraviolet C (UV-C) lamp to reduce the time taken for disinfecting the clinic, and that allows the light radiation intensity of the UV-C lamp to be adaptively adjusted according to the body temperature of the test subject.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle-type mobile infectious disease clinic, and more particularly, to a mobile infectious disease clinic, which is a vehicle-type mobile infectious disease clinic, that allows a test subject to be tested by a healthcare provider using an infectious disease test kit while exposure of the body parts is minimized and the healthcare provider and the test subject are isolated in the vehicle-type mobile infectious disease clinic, that performs sterilization of an infectious disease using an ultraviolet C (UV-C) lamp to reduce the time taken for disinfecting the clinic, and that allows the light radiation intensity of the UV-C lamp to be adaptively adjusted according to the body temperature of the test subject.

A collapsible air isolation apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus may include a collapsible frame including a base and a set of rigid panel elements at least partially enclosing a volume of space, where the set of rigid panel elements is foldably hinged to at least one of the base or another of the rigid panel elements, and where at least one panel of the set of rigid panel elements comprises an open space for mounting a motor for moving air. The apparatus may include the motor for moving air configured to create a negative pressure within the volume of space of the collapsible frame.

A normobaric hypoxia trainer including a training chamber, an intake fan for allowing ground level air to be introduced into the training chamber; an exhaust fan for removing air from the training chamber; a plurality of circulation fans for mixing interior air of the training chamber to create a uniform oxygen concentration within the training chamber; a nitrogen generation system, the nitrogen generating system including a plurality of polysulphone membrane cartridges for separating out nitrogen from air; a compressor for supplying compressed air to the nitrogen generation system; a pressure regulator for regulating the pressure of the compressed air; a heater for controlling temperature of the compressed air, the heated pressure regulated compressed air passing through the polysulphone membrane cartridges such that nitrogen can be separated out from the air; and, a flow controller for controlling flow rate of the separated nitrogen into the training chamber.

An apparatus may include a first layer that includes a plurality of inlets and a surface feature; a second layer, where the surface feature opposes the second layer; an outlet, and a pattern defined on at least one of the first layer and the second layer, where the pattern defines a suction path from each inlet of the plurality of inlets to the outlet.

An apparatus may include a first layer that includes a plurality of inlets and a surface feature; a second layer, where the surface feature opposes the second layer; an outlet, and a pattern defined on at least one of the first layer and the second layer, where the pattern defines a suction path from each inlet of the plurality of inlets to the outlet.

The present disclosure provides an isolation unit to protect uninfected persons from a patient infected with a respiratory disease during a use case. The isolation unit generally includes a frame and cover configured to form an enclosed space surrounding the head, neck and shoulders of the patient, the enclosed space containing air and a fan/filter system in fluid communication with the enclosed space and which includes a vacuum to create a negative pressure within the enclosed space to withdraw air in the enclosed space to the fan/filter system and a filter to remove any contaminants in the air.

A chamber for placement over a patient while allowing medical personnel to perform a medical procedure on the patient releasing virus, bacteria, or other contaminants, including a frame forming, supporting, and operatively integrated within a transparent body including a supported arch, an unsupported arch, and a top shield extending between the supported arch and the unsupported arch, wherein the body includes at least one access hole, and wherein the chamber surrounds the patient's head and the unsupported arch deforms around the patient's body in order to capture and exhaust any virus, bacteria, or other contaminants released by the patient during the medical procedure through negative pressure. A method of using the chamber of to perform a medical procedure on a patient. Methods of preventing exposure to waste anesthetic gas released from a patient after surgery, and preventing exposure to ultrafine particles and volatile organic compounds during 3D printer use.
