A respiratory pressure therapy system for providing continuous positive air pressure to a patient via a patient interface configured to engage with at least one airway of the patient. The system includes: a flow generator configured to generate supply of breathable gas for delivery to the patient via the patient interface; at least one sensor; a display; and a computing device. The computing device is configured to: receive sensor data that is based on measured physical property of the supply of breathable gas; control, based on the received sensor data, the flow generator to adjust a property of the supply of breathable gas; receive, an input indicating assistance is needed with using the patient interface; receive one or more images of the patient with the patient interface; analyse the received one or more images; and based on the analysis, display instructions for positioning the patient interface.

A system and method is provided for training operators (e.g., users), including new nurses or nephrologists as well as patients or their family members, to learn the intricacies of dialysis (e.g., hemodialysis) treatment through a simulation. The simulation may afford users the ability to fail catastrophically in simulated dialysis treatment, see the consequences, learn and internalize complex algorithms, and develop the ability to think in a time pressured situation. The simulation may thereby provide a safe learning environment for experiencing decisions and consequences of these decisions when performing a dialysis treatment. In some instances, the simulation may be in a mobile application form factor to encourage more ubiquitous use on personal devices, which may provide ease of access for the dialysis training. The simulation may further include time-based simulated scenarios that increase in difficulty and complexity between levels.

A medical pump for conveying a medical liquid has a pump housing and a front lid hingedly arranged at the pump housing. The medical pump also has a lid housing and an operating element integrated in the lid housing. The operating element features a resistive touch element and a separate display element arranged at a parallel distance to the touch element. The touch element and the display element jointly form a touch screen, and are fastened at respectively opposing sides of the lid housing.

A medical pump system includes at least one medical fluid pump of a first type and at least one medical fluid pump of a second type. The medical fluid pumps can be assembled or arranged vertically, with one of the medical fluid pumps positioned above the other. Each medical fluid pump has a movable front flap with an integrated display and operating elements. The medical fluid pumps can be directly connected to one another in a vertical arrangement, or arranged in a vertical arrangement with the aid of a carrying or holding device. When the medical fluid pumps are vertically arranged, the displays and operating elements of the respective medical fluid pumps are aligned vertically.

A detection device according to the present disclosure includes: an irradiation unit configured to emit an infrared ray toward an infusion tube; an imaging unit configured to generate a captured image obtained by imaging the infusion tube irradiated with the infrared ray by the irradiation unit; and a control unit configured to detect blockage of the infusion tube and air bubbles in the infusion tube based on a light intensity distribution in the captured image.

The operational parameters of a respiratory apparatus can be controlled through the use of a user interface located on a separate or separable mobile computing device. Sensors or features located on the mobile computing apparatus can be used to adjust the operation parameters or therapy of the respiratory apparatus or otherwise improve the compliance of a patient utilizing the respiratory apparatus.

A drug delivery device includes a housing with at least one pressure communication channel or aperture, which distributes a negative fluid pressure across its base to draw tissue against the device. The device can also include a porous, adhesive layer over the channel(s) or aperture(s), for attaching to tissue. The device can also include a pressure sensor for determining whether there is proper attachment. Further, a bladder may be used instead of the adhesive layer for attaching the device. The bladder, in a partially inflated state, can apply constant pressure across a contact surface causing a flexible adhesive layer attached to the bladder to confirm and adhere to the tissue. Subsequent evacuation of the bladder causes it to deflate and collapse or retract, thereby causing the flexible adhesive layer to pull and stretch the tissue toward the base.

Embodiments described herein generally relate to devices, systems and methods for measuring the dose remaining in a drug delivery device that is used for delivering a dose to a patient. In some embodiments, a dose measurement system for measuring the liquid volume in a container includes a plurality of light sources which are disposed and configured to emit electromagnetic radiation toward the container. A plurality of sensors are located in the apparatus that are optically coupleable to the plurality of light sources and are disposed and configured to detect the electromagnetic radiation emitted by at least a portion of the light sources. The apparatus also includes a processing unit configured to receive data representing the portion of the detected electromagnetic radiation from each of the plurality of sensors. The processing unit is further operable to convert the received data into a signature representative of the electromagnetic radiation detected by the plurality of sensors.
