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.
Systems and methods for treating coronavirus
Provided herein are methods of treatment, including methods of treating subjects having or at risk of having or having a viral infection, and specifically a SARS-CoV-2 viral infection. The methods provided include the administration of 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), resveratrol, fisetin, H.sub.2, nebulized hyaluronidase or combinations thereof. Also provided herein are a respiratory assistance device, methods of generating a customized respiratory assistance device, methods of treating a coronavirus infection, and methods of inhibiting a coronavirus infectivity, virulence and/or spread.
Wearable sensor devices and systems for patient care
A system for monitoring performance of a resuscitation activity on a patient by an acute care provider is provided. The system includes: a first wearable sensor configured to sense movement of a first portion of an acute care provider's hand; a second wearable sensor configured to sense movement of a second portion of the acute care provider's hand; and a controller. The controller is configured to: receive and process signals representative of performance of a resuscitation activity from the first sensor and the second sensor; identify from the processed signals information indicative of at least one of a relative distance, a relative orientation, a change in relative distance and a change in relative orientation between the first sensor and the second sensor during performance of the resuscitation activity; and determine at least one resuscitation activity parameter based, at least in part, on the identified information.
THERAPEUTIC DEVICE
The subject matter of the invention is a therapeutic device in the form of a cylindrical chamber which comprises a hyperbaric chamber, LED matrices (5) and inductive coil rings (10, 11, 12, 13), constructed in one inseparable set in the form of a chamber of 200-280 cm in length and diameter of the round cylinder (70-130 cm).
Systems and methods to increase survival with favorable neurological function after cardiac arrest
A system includes a guidance device that provides feedback to a user to compress a patient's chest at a rate of between about 90 and 110 compressions per minute and at a depth of between about 4.5 centimeters to about 6 centimeters. The system includes a pressure regulation system having a pressure-responsive valve that is configured to be coupled to a patient's airway. The pressure-responsive valve is configured to remain closed during successive chest compressions in order to permit removal at least about 200 ml from the lungs in order to lower intracranial pressure to improve survival with favorable neurological function. The pressure-responsive valve is configured to remain closed until the negative pressure within the patient's airway reaches about 7 cm H.sub.2O, at which time the pressure-responsive valve is configured to open to provide respiratory gases to flow to the lungs through the pressure-responsive valve.
Multimodal Device for Transdermal Treatments
The present invention includes an apparatus for transdermal treatments comprising: an openable enclosure for a subject in communication with three or more sources of treatment modalities selected from: a source of ozone; a source of steam, a source of CO.sub.2/Carbonic Acid; a source of Far Infrared; and a source of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF), wherein each of the three or more sources is in communication with an interior of the openable enclosure to treat the subject transdermally.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR TREATING CORONAVIRUS
Provided herein are methods of treatment, including methods of treating subjects having or at risk of having or having a viral infection, and specifically a SARS-CoV-2 viral infection. The methods provided include the administration of 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), palmitoylethanolamide (PEA), reservatrol, fisetin, H.sub.2, nebulized hyaluronidase or combinations thereof. Also provided herein are a respiratory assistance device, methods of generating a customized respiratory assistance device, methods of treating a coronavirus infection, and methods of inhibiting a coronavirus infectivity, virulence and/or spread.
Resuscitation chamber
A resuscitation chamber apparatus for administering hyperbaric oxygen to a patient. More particularly, the present invention relates to a hyperbaric oxygen compatible critical care chamber apparatus preferably for use in emergency departments and/or prehospital ambulance management of patients. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the apparatus is a resuscitation monoplace hyperbaric chamber preferably used in critical care management of acutely ill or injured patients in prehospital emergency medical services (EMS) settings or in hospital emergency departments. The apparatus preferably allows a critical care shock or arrested patient to be pressurized preferably without compromise for application of best medical equipment, medications and human resuscitating intervention.
CPR ASSIST DEVICE
A CPR assist device primarily comprises a wearable device, an AED, and an oxygen supplying device, with all the devices stored in a case body. On the wearable device are disposed a covering member and straps connecting to the covering member. On the covering member are disposed a pressure detecting unit, a heartbeat detecting unit, a first display unit and a second display unit. In case of a cardiac arrest, the covering member is put on the chest of the patient for the rescuer to administer CPR at a particular position. During CPR administration the pressure detecting unit detects the compression force and displays it on the first display unit to inform the rescuer as to whether the compressions are being administered properly. Further, the heartbeat detecting unit detects the heartbeat signals, and the second display unit shows whether the heart has started beating again to facilitate proper CPR administration. The CPR success rate may be further increased with the aid of the AED and oxygen supplying device.
ORAL DEVICE AND METHOD FOR THE USE THEREOF
An oral device includes an intraoral bolus simulator comprising an exterior surface and having an interior volume Tillable with a fluid. An extraoral user interface extends from the bolus simulator, and can be used to locate or position the intraoral bolus simulator. In various embodiments, the fluid may be a gas or a liquid, or combinations thereof. In other embodiments, an oral device includes an extraoral handle, a shield connected to the handle, a tether extending from the shield, and a bolus simulator connected to the tether.
