11565061 · 2023-01-31 ·

A resuscitation management system for a manual resuscitator may include a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag that may be configured to be mounted on a first side of a bag of the manual resuscitator. The RFID tag may be configured to transmit information indicative of the presence of the RFID tag. The system may further include an RFID reader that may be configured to be mounted on an opposite second side of the bag. The RFID reader may be configured to generate an output signal corresponding to the presence of the RFID tag responsive to receiving the information transmitted by the RFID tag. The RFID reader may be configured to receive the information transmitted by the RFID tag responsive to the RFID tag being at a distance from the RFID reader smaller than a predetermined threshold.

Cannulas for systems and methods for delivering microdoses of medication

Devices, systems, and methods are provided herein for delivering medication (e.g., insulin) via a wearable pump having a patch-style form factor for adhesion to a user's body. The reusable pump may be coupled to a disposable cap housing a microdosing system for delivering precise, repeatable doses of medication to a cannula configured to deliver medication to a target infusion area beneath the user's outer skin layer. The system further may include an applicator for inserting the cannula into the user's skin and/or applying an adhesive pad to the skin.

AUTOINJECTOR WITH DISCHARGE DETECTION

An autoinjector includes a housing, a product container, a torsion spring, a drive element, and a propulsion element. In order to discharge liquid out of the product container, the torsion spring rotates the drive element, and the rotating drive element produces a propulsive movement of the propulsion element and of a piston in the product container. A rotation sensor is configured for an alternating continuous detection of at least two rotational positions per revolution of the drive element during the discharge process, and a processor unit is configured for determining the axial position of the piston in the product container from the detected rotational positions.

AUTOINJECTOR WITH MULTICHAMBER PRODUCT CONTAINER
20230022361 · 2023-01-26 ·

An autoinjector for discharging one or more liquid products includes: a housing containing a multichamber product container, which includes a syringe body and an injection needle rigidly arranged at the distal end of the syringe body. The syringe body includes a first chamber for a first liquid product, a second chamber for a second liquid product, and a bypass for fluidically connecting the first chamber and second chamber. The bypass is formed in or on the syringe body in the form of a curved section protruding radially outwards, and two plungers are arranged in the syringe body in an axially movable manner.

VAPORIZER DEVICE
20230028847 · 2023-01-26 ·

A vaporizer device may include a vaporizer body configured to couple with at least one vaporizer cartridge including a first reservoir and a second reservoir. The vaporizer device may include a first aerosol generation mechanism configured to generate a first part of an aerosol by at least vaporizing a first aerosol component present in a first vaporizable material in the first reservoir. The vaporizer device may also include a second aerosol generation mechanism configured to generate a second part of the aerosol by vaporizing a first aerosol component present in a second vaporizable material at a second temperature. The first part of the aerosol and the second part of the aerosol may be delivered, via a mouthpiece, to a user of the vaporizer device.

Wire heated tube with temperature control system, tube type detection, and active over temperature protection for humidifier for respiratory apparatus

A heated conduit is configured to connect to and receive pressurized breathable gas from a respiratory unit. The heated conduit includes a first cuff that includes an air inlet portion and an electrical connector portion that is adjacent the air inlet portion and comprises three electrical terminals that are configured to engage a respiratory unit electrical connector. The heated conduit also includes a second cuff comprising an air outlet and a flexible tube portion with a first end connected to the first cuff, a second end connected to the second cuff, and a spiral rib structure wrapped around a central lumen. A grouping of wires is supported within the spiral rib structure of the flexible tube portion and include a pair of heating wires and a signal wire. A sensing device extends into the gas flow path from an interior surface of the second cuff and is configured to output a signal indicative of the condition inside the heated conduit.

Gesture-based control of diabetes therapy

Devices, systems, and techniques for controlling delivery of therapy for diabetes are described. In one example, a system includes a wearable device configured to generate user activity data associated with an arm of a user; and one or more processors configured to: identify at least one gesture indicative of utilization of an injection device for preparation of an insulin injection based on the user activity data; based on the at least one identified gesture, generate information indicative of at least one of an amount or type of insulin dosage in the insulin injection by the injection device; compare the generated information to a criteria of a proper insulin injection; and output information indicative of whether the criteria is satisfied based on the comparison.

Auto-Injector

An auto-injector for administering a dose of a liquid medicament (M) is presented having an elongate case, a carrier subassembly comprising a tubular carrier slidably arranged inside the case, where the carrier adapted to contain a syringe with a hollow injection needle. The injector also has, a drive spring and a plunger for forwarding load of the drive spring to a stopper of the syringe, wherein the syringe is lockable for joint axial translation with the carrier. A control spring is arranged around the carrier for translating the carrier in a proximal direction (P) for advancing the needle beyond a proximal end of the auto-injector, and a trigger button is used for releasing the control spring on actuation.

Methods and systems for managing a patient move
11559641 · 2023-01-24 · ·

This disclosure describes systems and methods for managing a move of a patient being monitored or treated by a medical system, such as a medical ventilator. The disclosure describes a novel approach for preventing a patient from being moved from a first location to second different location that is connected to a monitoring and/or treatment system, before all of the necessary hoses have been disconnected from the patient. Further, the disclosure describes a novel approach of ensuring that all of the necessary hoses are reconnected to a patient being monitored or treated by a monitoring and/or treatment system after being moved from the first location to the second different location.
