An injection device storage container includes a case configured to contain at least one injection device for delivering a medicament; and a hanger arrangement coupled to the case and configured to suspend the case from a supporting wall; wherein the case includes an upper panel having an opening formed therein through which the at least one injection device can be dispensed, and wherein the opening is arranged such that, when the case is suspended from the supporting wall, the at least one injection device is dispensed in a horizontal orientation through the opening.

An interventional ventricular assist device (100), including: an interventional tube (10). a motor assembly (30), a perfusion cylinder (40), and an impeller assembly (20). The interventional tube (10) has a liquid inlet (11) and a liquid outlet (12). The impeller assembly (20) includes an impeller (21), accommodated within the interventional tube (10) and rotatable to enable a liquid to flow into the interventional tube (10) via the liquid inlet (11) and out therefrom via the liquid outlet (12). The motor assembly (30) is configured to generate a rotating magnetic field to drive the impeller (21) to rotate and generate an attraction to the impeller (21). A perfusate injected from the perfusion cylinder (40) is adapted to provide a thrust to the impeller assembly (20), whereby the impeller (21) is suspendedly rotatable in the interventional tube (10) under a combined action of the thrust and the attraction.

A user interface of a respiratory therapy system includes a strap assembly, a frame, a connector, and a sensor. The strap assembly is positioned about a head of a user when the user wears the user interface. The frame is physically and electrically connected to the strap assembly, and defines an aperture. The connector has a first end portion and second end portion. The first end portion of the connector can be positioned within the aperture of the frame such that the connector is physically and electrically connected to the frame. The sensor is coupled to the strap assembly or the frame such that the sensor abuts a target area of the user when the user wears the user interface.

Disclosed herein is a multi-purpose aerosol platform capable of producing and delivery of submicron and nano structured materials for pharmaceutical, biomedical and environmental applications. Depending on the application, active chemical and biological materials may be processed from liquid dispersions into droplets and/or particle formulations. The disclosed system uses moderate gas pressures to atomize liquids into submicron-size droplets that are 10-1000 times smaller in diameter than commercial and research systems. This allows much gentler and rapid droplet-to-particle conversion, applying much smaller physical and chemical stresses on the processed materials than conventional techniques like spray drying, spray coating, spray freeze drying and other technologies. For example, the disclosed system can be used for an ultra-fine nebulization and delivery of viscous therapeutic oils including oils of medical cannabis, for which conventional nebulization systems either fail or became ineffective. Such systems could help patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) developed in hard COVID-19 cases.

A method, system and apparatus for a vibration-masking device for use in the bed emits sufficient vibration to mask ambient vibrations and aid in sleep and relaxation. Low frequency vibrations also help reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis, also referred to as DVT. The apparatus is designed to be cooled so as to avoid overheating when used in the bed or in upholstered furniture.

A ventilation system including a ventilator having a cooling fan configured reduce an internal temperature of the ventilator. The ventilator also includes a controller configured to control operation of the ventilator. A detector is configured to generate a detection signal when the ventilator is connected to a cold passover humidification (CPH) device. In response to the detection signal, the ventilator reduces or eliminates operation of the cooling fan in comparison to a default mode of operation. A method of providing increasing a temperature of a flow of air to a CPH device is also included.

A breathing assistance apparatus has a pressurised gases source featuring a lightweight impeller with a plastic shaft. The impeller is shroudless. The plastic shaft is supported within the stator by a bearing structure. A resilient motor mount couples the statos and the housing and provide compliance and/or damping for the motor.

A system for providing a NO-containing gas flow to treat a biological object. The system includes a nozzle receptacle for receiving NO-rich air from a plasma-generated NO source, tubing coupled to the nozzle for directing the NO-rich air to a scrubber, the scrubber configured to receive a solvent for absorbing NO2, tubing coupled between the scrubber and a gas mixer for directing scrubbed NO-rich air to the gas mixer, where the gas mixer is coupled to a source of atmospheric air for selectively mixing the scrubbed NO-rich air with the atmospheric air to create diluted NO-containing air; and a manifold for distributing the diluted NO-containing air to a plurality of patient locations.

An ultrasonic nebulizer includes: a working tank in which an ultrasonic vibrator is incorporated and in which a working liquid is stored facing the ultrasonic vibrator; a medicine tank that stores a medicinal liquid, at least a bottom portion thereof being dipped in the working liquid; and a main body that includes an oscillation circuit that is to drive the ultrasonic vibrator. The medicine tank is configured to be detachable with respect to the working tank. The working tank is configured to be detachable with respect to the main body.

An applicator can include a dispenser for dispensing an amount of a therapeutic composition, which can include an amount of sugar or sugar alcohol and an amount of an alkalizing agent. In some cases, the alkalizing agent can include L-Arginine. In some cases, 75% or more of the composition by weight has a comedogenicity rating of 3 or less on a scale of 0-5. The dispenser can also have a power supply configured to provide power through a contact tip of the dispenser to provide nerve stimulation, such as using vibration, heating, cooling, and/or electrical stimulation.
