Therapeutic device for treatment of conditions relating to the sinuses, nasal cavities, ear, nose and throat
A rechargeable therapeutic system for treating conditions of a user's nasal cavities, sinuses or ear canals includes a therapeutic device having a housing that includes an inlet that allows air to enter the therapeutic device. An acoustic vibrator located within the housing provides an acoustic vibration to the user, and a power supply located within the housing provides power to the acoustic vibrator. A mask is connected to the housing and configured to be applied around the nose of the user. A valve of the mask is configured to allow the user to breathe through the inlet. The mask further includes a diaphragm and a nasal cavity in which the user's nose is located when the mask is applied around the nose of the user. A recharging station is configured to provide a charging current to the power supply.
CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION DEVICES WITH A COMBUSTION UNIT AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
CPR devices with a combustion unit and associated methods are disclosed. According to an aspect, a CPR device includes a first mechanism configured to attach to a torso of a patient for providing chest compressions to the patient. The CPR device also includes a second mechanism comprising a piston and a shaft. The piston is movable within the shaft and is attached to the mechanism for movement of the mechanism when the piston moves within the shaft. Further, the CPR device includes a combustion unit operatively connected to the piston for powering the movement of the piston within the shaft. The combustion unit comprising a chamber configured to receive propellant. The combustion unit is configured to controllably ignite the propellant in the chamber for powering the movement of the piston.
Detection of myocardial contractions indicative of perfusion
A system for assisting with a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) treatment being administered to a patient. In one aspect, the system includes electrodes to provide an ECG signal of the patient, one or more sensors configured to measure an intrinsic myocardial wall movement of the patient, and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to perform operations including: during the CPR treatment being administered to the patient, receiving an input from the sensor(s), processing the input from the sensor(s) and the ECG signal, determining, based on processing, whether the intrinsic myocardial wall movement is indicative of a perfusion movement of the patient's heart, and providing an indication to a user of the system based on the determination.
Portable CPR Robot
Improvements in a device that provides cardiopulmonary recitation (CPR). The portable robot extends from a base from a single side where the robot can be wheeled over a patient. The compression head of the portable CPR robot extends from only one side of the base to leave one-side of the patient open for doctors to assess the patient. The rate and force of the chest compressions can be adjusted. A plurality of sensors that can monitor and adjust in real-time based upon the condition of the patient. The device can have additional function including, but not be limited to X-ray, air/breathing function, defibrillator as well as abdominal compression capability. Communications can link the portable CPR robot to other medical information with a wired, or more preferably a wireless link to the patients records and medical diagnostic tools.
Wearable safety system for either diving, harsh or anoxic environments, or for individuals at high risk for respiratory or cardiac failure.
A wearable safety system for either diving, harsh or anoxic environments, or for individuals at high risk for respiratory and/or cardiac failure is disclosed. The wearable safety system includes biometric monitoring and provides cardiac and/or respiratory support in the event that the wearer experiences cardiac and/or respiratory failure. There are different configurations of the wearable safety system designed to work with different use cases, and to provide different levels of protection. In the case of diving, the wearable safety system additionally utilizes data collected by the dive computer to advise a rescue diver as to the best course of action in managing an unconscious diver's ascent and can also inflate the diver's buoyancy control device (BCD) or onboard personal flotation device.
Data Management System and Methods for Chest Compression Devices
A medical resuscitation system includes a platform for releasable coupling to a patient for delivery of mechanical chest compressions, the platform having sensor(s) for monitoring aspect(s) of compression delivery, and processing circuitry configured to control the delivery chest compressions during a patient therapy session; receive, during the session, signals from each sensor; and store, to a memory, operational data collected for use by an authorized user in troubleshooting a problem with the platform and/or gathering historic data regarding use of the platform, and clinical metrics regarding the delivery of the compressions during the session, where the clinical metrics are collected for use in a summary report accessible to a clinical user. The summary report may be transferred to a server or a portable computer readable medium. The operational data may be transferred to an accessory unit or data integrator configured to cooperate with the platform for providing the therapy.
Method and Device for Assisting and Enforcing a breathing process
The present invention relates to the art of automatic regulation of pulmonary devices for assisting and/or enforcing the breathing process by converting Bag-Valve-Mask (BVM) apparatus are also known as manual resuscitators to automatic system by pneumatic matter with the goal to enhance both phases of breathing: inhalation and exhalation. It also replaces a mechanical chest compression for automatic pneumatic compression, could be complimented with the use of the TENs unit and can be used for extended periods of time with a high level of reliability, simplicity, efficacy and low cost.
This portable and light device is recommended to be used as a resuscitator attached to the patients with mild to extremely suppressed or without respiratory drive.
The source of power can be electrical, battery operated, manual or a combination thereof.
That feature is extremely critical for its use in a combat zone or during a power failure.
