Conduit and method of forming
A thin ribbon spirally wound polymer conduit and method of forming, wherein a helical reinforcing bead is interposed adjacent overlapping layers of ribbon. Further, a method of continuously forming spirally wound conduit wherein a sacrificial layer, preferably having a different base polymer to that of the conduit, is first applied to the former before the conduit is formed overtop.
NASAL DELIVERY DEVICES
A nasal delivery device for and a method of delivering substance to a nasal airway of a subject, the nasal delivery device comprising: a mouthpiece (519) through which the subject in use exhales to cause closure of the oropharyngeal velum of the subject; a nosepiece (517) for fitting to a nostril of a subject, the nosepiece including a nozzle (549) through which substance is in use delivered to the nasal airway; and a manually-actuatable substance supply unit (520) for delivering substance through the nozzle of the nosepiece.
WICKLESS VAPORIZING DEVICES AND METHODS
Deformable valves and atomizer designs for a vaporizer (e.g., electronic cigarette). The vaporizer may be used for vaporization of liquid and/or organic material. The vaporizer may enable enhanced flow control of fluid and may generate high quality and quantity of vapor efficiently. In some instances, flow path of the vaporizer may allow bulk fluid flow, e.g., in contrast to capillary flow, to deliver fluid to a vicinity of the vaporizer. In some instances, the vaporizer may utilize improved atomizer designs for vaporizing devices, where said designs can be configured optionally, with various embodiments of a breath-modulating deformable valve.

Intranasal delivery of dihydroergotamine by precision olfactory device
Methods are provided for acutely treating migraine headache with or without aura. The methods comprise administering to a subject with migraine headache an effective dose of a liquid pharmaceutical composition comprising dihydroergotamine (DHE) or a salt thereof, wherein the dose is administered by an intranasal delivery device that provides, following intranasal administration, (a) a mean peak plasma DHE concentration (C.sub.max) of at least 750 pg/ml, (b) with a mean time to C.sub.max (T.sub.max) of DHE of less than 45 minutes, and (c) a mean plasma AUC.sub.0-inf of DHE of at least 2500 pg*hr/ml. Also provided are kits for acutely treating migraine with or without aura in which a liquid pharmaceutical composition comprising DHE or DHE salt is contained within a sealed vial that is attachable to a precision intranasal olfactory delivery device packaged therewith.
Wash, clean and dry system with removable spray canister device
A method and a wash, clean and dry system are provided for washing, cleaning and drying a surface region of a human body. The system includes a toilet seat assembly with a bidet assembly having a spray canister device for spraying the surface region with a solution, such as a skin protecting barrier solution, a cleaning solution or a medicated solution. In one aspect, the spray canister device can be movably insert into and out of the toilet seat assembly and is easy to operate and use. In addition, the bidet assembly further includes a spray nozzle assembly and a drying nozzle assembly, which are adapted to wash, clean and dry the region of the human body in three dimensional moments. The removable spray canister device with the removable sleeved cover element is thus easy to carry and be re-filled with new solutions.
