The invention concerns a device for helping a user fall asleep, comprising a light source designed to emit a substantially monochromatic red or quasi-monochromatic light encouraging the user to fall asleep, characterized in that it comprises a control unit designed to automatically control said light source according to a predefined law according to which the light power emitted by said light source decreases gradually over time in such a way as to change automatically between a maximum power value and a minimum power value, the light power emitted by said light source at a given time always being greater than or equal to the light power emitted at a subsequent time.

A mist inhaler device (200) for generating a mist for inhalation by a user. The device includes a mist generator device (201) and a driver device (202). The driver device (202) is configured to drive the mist generator device (201) at an optimum frequency to maximise the efficiency of mist generation by the mist generator device (201).

The present disclosure provides an aerosol delivery device and a cartridge for an aerosol delivery device. In various implementations, the aerosol delivery device comprises a control device that includes an outer housing defining a cartridge receiving chamber, and further includes a power source and a control component, and a cartridge that includes a mouthpiece, a tank, a heating assembly, and a bottom cap. The mouthpiece defines an exit portal in an end thereof, and the tank is configured to contain a liquid composition therein. The cartridge is configured to be removably coupled with the receiving chamber of the control device, and the heating assembly defines a vaporization chamber and is configured to heat the liquid composition to generate an aerosol. An inlet airflow is defined by a gap between the cartridge and the control device that originates at an interface between an outer peripheral surface the mouthpiece and control device.

A mist inhaler device (200) for generating a mist comprising a therapeutic for inhalation by a user. The device comprises a mist generator device (201) and a driver device (202). The driver device (202) is configured to drive the mist generator device (201) at an optimum frequency to maximise the efficiency of mist generation by the mist generator device (201).

Methods and vaporizer apparatuses that estimate, measure and/or predict the amount of vapor and/or material (including active ingredients) released by the vaporizer apparatus. In particular, described herein are electronic vaporizers and methods of using them that determine a dose/amount of vapor and/or a material in the vapor based primarily or exclusively on the electrical and thermal properties, e.g., power or energy applied to the vaporizing element (e.g., heating coil) and the temperature of the material immediately before and as it is vaporized. Dose information may be used to control operation of the device and/or reported to the user.

Fill stations and base stations are provided for personal pump systems. The fill stations may be opened and closed to accept a reservoir and to allow fluid to be introduced into the reservoir for use with personal pump systems. The fill stations may hold the reservoir at a tilt relative to an underlying surface and may discourage overfilling of the reservoir. The filling stations may also include viewing windows having fluid lines marked thereon for indicating volume of fluid within the reservoir.

A system is disclosed. The system includes a reservoir for containing a fluidic medium, the reservoir including a front surface, a resilient cylindrical flexure portion connected to the front surface, the resilient cylindrical flexure portion comprising an accordion-like structure that is able to expand and contract to change an interior volume within the resilient cylindrical flexure portion, a central passageway within the resilient cylindrical flexure, and a collection chamber connected to the central passageway. Also, a system including a reservoir, a plunger head located within the reservoir, a plunger arm connected to the plunger head, a driving shaft connected to the plunger arm, and a motor connected to the driving shaft, the motor controllable to move the drive shaft in a first motion and a second motion so as to move the advance plunger head and retract the plunger head within the reservoir.

The embodiments disclose a method including creating a dual product vaporizer for use in vaping two different types of products at the same time, atomizing the two different types of products using two heaters for allowance of different burn temperatures for each of the two different types of products, wherein the two heaters are configured to operate at two different temperatures, wherein the two heaters are configured to operate at the same temperature, wherein the dual product vaporizer is configured to operate with only one product cartridge inserted, using at least one rechargeable battery to power the two heaters and an LED light battery indicator, and using two individual draw holes for drawing atomized product vapors from two individual product cartridges at the same time.

The invention relates to a multifunctional applicator for mobile use having an applicator plug, a supply tube, a Y-piece, fork tubes and a nose piece with prongs, wherein the applicator plug comprises a pressure chamber that has a humidifier interface for connection with a high flow therapy device, an oxygen supply port having an opening diameter of at least 1 mm, and a therapy air supply port for the supply tube, the humidifier interface and the oxygen supply port within the pressure chamber each having an upper and a lower valve seat that are provided with a seal and a valve body being movable between said valve seats and said valve body being subjected to a force by a helical compression spring from the direction of the oxygen supply port and on the other hand being pushed against the upper valve seat by an actuating element of the high flow therapy device when the applicator plug is locked in place on the high flow therapy device.

The present invention relates to a method for implanting an implantable apparatus for obtaining urinary control and emptying of the urinary bladder, thereby preventing from or treating involuntary urinary retention. In general terms, the apparatus comprises an expandable member adapted to be implanted inside the urinary bladder of the patient for discharging urine, and a control device for controlling the volume of the expandable member. The control device is adapted to be connected to the expandable member through the wall of the urinary bladder.
