Disclosed is a computer controlled dosage system, for dosage adjustment for a mobile, hand held, inhaler for delivering a dosage of a medicine, is provided. The system comprises at least one measuring device for measuring at least one parameter; and a handheld mobile computer separate from the inhaler, the computer being configured to communicate with the at least one measuring device and with a remote memory for sending and receiving information to and from patient medical records of the remote memory for storage in a memory of the computer, and the computer being configured to receive a manual input for storage in the memory of the computer. The computer is configured to create a data set for setting a plurality of levels of different dosages of medicine based on the medicine used by the inhaler, the information from the patient's medical records of the remote memory, and the manual input; and the computer is further configured to store the data set in the memory of the computer. The computer is further configured to generate an indication indicating a dosage adjustment for the inhaler, based on the at least one parameter and on one of the plurality of levels of dosage of the data set, the indication indicating one of the plurality of levels of dosage of the data set as the dosage adjustment for the inhaler. A dosage regime generated by the computer controlled dosage system is also disclosed.

A stand-alone chamber or multi-chamber inhalation system has at least two alternative vaporized test liquid supply systems for passive or self-administered delivery of vaporized test fluid and air to one or more test chambers, which can be passive or restraint chambers, based on operator selection of delivery on and off times in a passive mode or actuation of an actuator in the chamber by a test animal in a self-administered mode. In one case, a multiple inhalation chamber system has two or more separate test fluid delivery systems and provides options for selective passive uniform drug delivery to multiple chambers or selective delivery of two or more different drugs to different groups of chambers from different delivery systems so that two different drugs or different concentrations of delivered drugs can be tested simultaneously.

A robot-connected IoT-based sleep-caring system includes a sleep-caring robot and an IoT system. The sleep-caring robot includes environment monitoring, physiology monitoring, sleep monitoring, sound, lighting and electricity control, a smart storage compartment, central data processing, and machine arms. The IoT system senses and executes instructions from the sleep-caring robot, thereby catering to bedroom activities of the user.

Ventilation masks are disclosed herein including a mask body and a gas manifold coupled to the mask body to form a gas channel for directing a gas through a gas port to create a curtain effect gas flow within the patient cavity and form a gas curtain within the patient cavity and adjacent to at least one vent opening formed through the mask body, and a sampling cover couplable with the mask body to form a sampling channel between a sampling portal of the sampling cover and a sensing port, where the sampling portal is formed by a protrusion of the sampling cover that extends into the vent opening and can extend toward a patient cavity formed by an inner surface of the mask body.

A plurality of flow rate values associated with pressurized air directed to an airway of a user of a respiratory therapy system is received. A plurality of pressure values associated with the pressurized air directed to the airway of the user is received. A first time associated with a first breath of the user and a second time associated with a second breath of the user are identified. The plurality of flow rate values is filtered based at least in part on the identified first time and the identified second time. The filtering produces a subset of the plurality of flow rate values. An intentional leak characteristic curve for the respiratory therapy system is determined using at least two of the subset of the plurality of flow rate values and the corresponding pressure values for said at least two of the subset of the plurality of flow rate values.

A suction device includes a heating unit that heats a base material and generates an aerosol; a communication unit that receives, through a communication link, information indicating a profile stipulating an operation of the heating unit; and a control unit that controls the operation of the heating unit in accordance with the information indicating the profile. The information indicating the profile includes a combination of information indicating time and information indicating a parameter pertaining to the operation of the heating unit at said time.

An automatic positive airway pressure (AutoPAP) therapy device can be configured such that the minimum and/or maximum pressures deliverable by the device can automatically change. The minimum and/or maximum pressures can change as a function of pressures delivered over the course of the current therapy session and/or over the course of prior therapy sessions. The minimum and/or maximum pressures can also change as a function of the presence, absence, type, severity, or length of sleep disordered breathing events (SDBE) detected by the device over the course of the current therapy session and/or over the course of prior therapy sessions.

Various embodiments are described herein for a controller for controlling the operation of a breathing assistance device that provides breathing assistance to a user. The controller comprises a processor that generates a respiratory index value that is determined during a current monitoring time period to detect a respiratory failure, or predict the respiratory failure when at least one PSG signal is measured. The respiratory index value is compared to a threshold to determine if the control signal needs to be updated to reduce or eliminate respiratory failure that the user is currently experiencing or to prevent a predicted respiratory failure from occurring.

Systems and methods producing a customised patient respiratory interface are disclosed. Data representative of one or more landmark features of a head of a human is obtained. One or more landmark feature locations of the landmark features are identified based on the data. A set of manufacturing specifications for production of the patient respiratory interface component is determined based on the one or more landmark feature locations. The patient respiratory interface component is produced based on the set of manufacturing specifications.
