A method includes receiving data associated with a sleep session of a user. The method also includes determining that the user is experiencing or has experienced an event based at least in part on the data. The method also includes causing pressurized air to be directed from a respiratory device to a multi-compartment bladder in response to determining that the user is experiencing or has experienced the event to aid in modifying a position of a head of the user.

Disclosed are apparatus and methods of detecting user interaction with a respiratory therapy device and effecting an action in response to the detection. The apparatus comprises a sensor which is positioned so as to detect the presence of a user's hand or fingers near to the apparatus, such as a surface or handle. In embodiments the apparatus may be configured to detect gestures or movement of the user. On detection of a user, the apparatus may be configured to effect one or more actions, such as disabling a feature of an input or output device or alerting a user.

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.

To better fulfill a sleep-inducing function for a seated person, a seat device includes a pressing device provided in a seat back and configured to press a back or a waist of a seated person to induce breathing; at least one of a temperature adjusting device configured to change a temperature of a seat cushion and/or the seat back and a shape adjusting device configured to change a surface shape of the seat cushion and/or the seat back; and a controller configured to control the pressing device to press the back or the waist of the seated person at a set cycle corresponding to a breathing cycle of a person at a sleeping time, and control the at least one of the temperature adjusting device and the shape adjusting device.

Provided herein are dry powder formulations comprising epinephrine alone or in combination with at least one enabling agent suitable for nasal application. Also provided are unit dose forms and devices comprising such formulations and methods of using such formulations for the treatment of various conditions including anaphylaxis, anaphylactoid reaction, respiratory conditions, hemodynamic collapse, and for administration during cardiopulmonary arrest and other life-threatening conditions.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for increasing performance, improving sleep and improving relaxation that involve specifically coordinating nerve stimulation of a cranial nerve (e.g. vagus nerve) in conjunction with augmented reality (AR). According to certain embodiments disclosed are systems that include an AR component that presents information or a stimulus and provides cranial nerve fiber stimulation (CNFS) at strategic times to reduce anxiety/arousal/related during user activity or scenarios and reinforce learning.

Devices, systems, and methods for monitoring respiration using surface temperature, humidity, air pressure, carbon dioxide gas sensors, pulse oximetry sensors and electromyography sensors, and/or acceleration sensors to obtain information related to respiration rate (RR), exhalation/inhalation strength, exhalation/inhalation volume, exhalation/inhalation acceleration, and/or exhalation/inhalation regularity.

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 wearable health and lifestyle device including at least a measurement module configured to be worn by a user in at least a first wearing position, the measurement module comprising a 3-axis accelerometer unit configured to provide acceleration data and inclination data, a temperature measurement unit configured to provide temperature data, a light radiation measurement unit configured to provide light radiation data, said light radiation measurement unit comprising at least one multi-spectral sensor configured to measure wavelength bands over the range 290 nm to 1150 nm, a storage module configured to receive and store said acceleration data, said inclination data, said temperature data and said light radiation data, and an analysis module configured to analyze a data set comprising acceleration data, inclination data, temperature data and light radiation data.

Drug delivery systems and methods of use thereof for recording administration of a drug dose to a subject are provided. Aspects of the invention include a syringe stopper rod comprising a sensor component that is configured to detect a delivery signature, and to transmit a report comprising a drug dose completion signal to a data management component, e.g., a mobile computing device.
