Wickless vaporizing devices and methods

Deformable valves and atomizer designs for a vaporizer (e.g., electronic cigarette). The vaporizer may be used for vaporization of liquid and/or organic material. The vaporizer may enable enhanced flow control of fluid and may generate high quality and quantity of vapor efficiently. In some instances, flow path of the vaporizer may allow bulk fluid flow, e.g., in contrast to capillary flow, to deliver fluid to a vicinity of the vaporizer. In some instances, the vaporizer may utilize improved atomizer designs for vaporizing devices, where said designs can be configured optionally, with various embodiments of a breath-modulating deformable valve.

A tongue attachment assembly includes a sheath designed for attachment to a patient's tongue using a vacuum. An accessory attachment feature comprising a groove located between a flange and the distal end of the body of the sheath. Vacuum can be drawn through a valve or an external vacuum source. The tongue attachment assembly can be adapted for any of a variety of applications by selecting an appropriate accessory and attaching the accessory to the sheath by the accessory attachment feature. Accessories can include a sleep apnea attachment, a gas delivery mask retention attachment, and the like. A tongue shape restoration device can be employed to restore the tongue from a shape that is deformed by the tongue attachment assembly to a natural shape. The tongue shape restoration device can be a pair of cantilevered arms, an orbital shaped device, or any other suitable component.

System and method for monitoring resuscitation or respiratory mechanics of a patient

A system and method for monitoring resuscitation and respiratory mechanics of a patient is provided. A pressure sensor detects air pressure within an air-flow path of a resuscitator and generates a first detection signal in response thereto. A flow-rate sensor detects the flow-rate within the air-flow path and generates a second detection signal In response thereto. A processor receives and processes the first and second detection signals using an algorithm to identify a ventilation rate, a lung pressure, and an air volume corresponding to the respiratory air. A report is generated of real-time feedback about respiration of the patient that includes the ventilation rate, lung pressure, and air volume.
