VENTILATOR SYSTEMS WITH INTEGRATED OXYGEN DELIVERY, AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES AND METHODS
The present technology is directed to ventilator systems that can provide both ventilation therapy and oxygen therapy. The systems described herein may include a ventilation assembly that can provide inspiratory gas to a patient circuit and an oxygen assembly that can provide pulses of oxygen to an oxygen delivery circuit. In some embodiments, the oxygen delivery circuit is distinct from the patient circuit. For example, the patient circuit can include a corrugated conduit coupled a ventilation mask, and the oxygen delivery circuit can include a nasal cannula. The ventilation mask can be positioned over the nasal cannula so that the patient can receive both the inspiratory gases and the pulses of oxygen.
Drug delivery device
A drug delivery device for administering a drug is presented having a body, at least one electrical unit and a port for electrically contacting the electrical unit, an adapter for attaching an injection needle to the drug delivery device, a safety mechanism arranged to prevent contacting the electrical unit whilst an injection needle is in fluid communication with the drug delivery device and arranged to prevent establishing a fluid communication whilst the electrical unit is contactable.
ELECTRONIC CIGARETTES
The present disclosure generally relates to the field of aerosol generation devices, and more particularly to electronic cigarettes configured to generation of aerosols from aqueous formulations of nicotine or cannabis products. The present disclosure further provides aqueous cannabinoid compositions for use in the aerosol generation devices.
Systems and Methods for Generating Nitric Oxide
Systems and methods for generating nitric oxide are disclosed. A nitic oxide (NO) generation system includes at least one pair of electrodes configured to generate a product gas containing NO from a flow of a reactant gas; and a controller configured to regulate the amount of nitric oxide in the product gas produced by the at least one pair of electrodes by utilizing duty cycle values of plasma pulses selected from a plurality of discrete duty cycles to produce a target rate of NO production based on an average of discrete production rates associated with each of the plurality of discrete duty cycles.
Auto injector with charger safety
An auto injector is disclosed comprising: a housing, a cartridge receiver, and an ejector member. The cartridge receiver is configured to receive a cartridge containing the medicament. The auto injector further comprises a blocking member coupled to an ejector member. The blocking member is configured to move between a blocking position wherein a connector opening is blocked and a non-blocking position wherein the connector opening is not blocked.
Microchannel Feed System for an Aerosol Delivery Device
The present disclosure provides an aerosol delivery device and a liquid delivery and atomization assembly for use with an aerosol delivery device. In one implementation, the liquid delivery and atomization assembly comprises a liquid composition, an atomization assembly, and a liquid delivery component configured to transport at least a portion of the liquid composition to the atomization assembly. The liquid delivery component comprises at least one microchannel configured to deliver the portion of the liquid composition to the atomization assembly, and the microchannel includes a variable flow characteristic defined along at least a portion of the microchannel, the variable flow characteristic being configured to control the flow of the portion of liquid composition through the microchannel.
Vein Heating Assembly
A vein heating assembly includes a sleeve that has a first portion which is hingedly coupled to a second portion. The first portion is positionable in an open position to have a patient's arm positioned therein and the first portion is positionable in a closed position to surround the patient's arm. A plurality of nozzles is each integrated into the sleeve. A plurality of heating elements is each coupled to the sleeve to warm the patient's arm when the heating elements are turned on thereby increasing blood flow in the arm for enhancing the appearance of veins. A steam unit is integrated into the sleeve to produce steam that is delivered onto the patient's arm for increasing blood flow in the arm for enhancing the appearance of veins.
Sleep Tracking Method and Device
Systems and techniques for enhanced sleep tracking, monitoring, and conditioning are discussed herein. A device may be couplable to, or integrally formed with, a piece of furniture (a “nearable”) receives sensor data from one or more sensors accessible to the device and, based on a determined stage of sleep, may actuate one or more devices for conditioning sleep. In some examples, the nearable may be configured to receive a smartphone such that one or more processors and sensors of the smartphone may be used to perform at least some of the processes. When configured to receive a smartphone, the nearable's cavity may retain the smartphone via a spring mechanism to create an additional button for user interaction, as well as be shaped to minimize an amount of electromagnetic radiation (including light emitted from a screen) of the smartphone, while optimizing sounds output from the smartphone.
Ophthalmic cutting instruments having integrated aspiration pump
A device for performing an ophthalmic procedure in an eye including a hand-held portion; an elongate member extending from a distal end region of the hand-held portion; and an aspiration pump within the hand-held portion. The elongate member includes a lumen and an opening near a distal end region of the elongate member. The aspiration pump is in fluid communication with the opening of the elongate member. The aspiration pump includes a camshaft extending along a longitudinal axis and having a plurality of lobed cams; tubing extending parallel to the longitudinal axis; and a plurality of cam followers driven by the cams of the camshaft to move in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis to sequentially compress the tubing. Related devices, systems, methods are provided.
HANDHELD FILAMENT EXTENSION ATOMIZER FOR PRECISION DELIVERY OF DRUGS AND THERAPEUTICS
A docking station for a hand-held filament extension atomizer device includes a receiver to receive the device, station electronics, a recharging point for the device arranged to connect with a power source of the device, a power connection to an alternating current power source, and a cleaning reservoir of cleaning solution. A method of operating hand-held dispenser to dispense fluid as a mist includes receiving a signal at a motor contained in a casing in response to a user triggering an actuator on the casing, activating the motor to provide fluid to a filament extension atomizer contained in the case from a reservoir contained in the casing, the motor to cause the filament extension atomizer to generate a mist, and using an air source contained in the casing arranged adjacent the filament extension atomizer to provide air flow to direct the mist to a nozzle that is arranged to allow the mist to exit the casing.
