Stimulation delivered by the stimulation may be adjusted based on the impedance measurements.

An inhalation monitoring system includes an inhaler having a medicament delivery apparatus configured to deliver medicament to a user during an inhalation of the user; inhalation monitoring apparatus, configured to, during the inhalation, gather data for determining a measure of the user's lung function and/or lung health; and a processor configured to receive the data from the inhalation monitoring apparatus and, using the data, determine a measure of the user's lung function and/or lung health.

A device comprising a housing having a handle end and a treatment end. The treatment end is configured to provide an antimicrobial treatment and a heat treatment. The treatment end comprises an applicator having an applicator surface for providing at least the heat treatment. The device includes a heat generation unit configured to heat the applicator surface in use, a source of antimicrobial agent, and a control unit operatively connected to at least the heat generation unit for controlling the heat generation unit. The device can be a hand-held device and used to apply topical treatment to a treatment area of a subject.

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.

The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods of controlling supplemental oxygen supply devices, the methods include: receiving data from one or more sensors of a patient device operably connected to a patient; using the data as an input to a machine learning model that predicts whether or not a change to a supply amount of an oxygen enriched gas from the supplemental oxygen supply device is to be made; and transmitting a control signal to the supplemental oxygen supply device based on the predicted change.

Systems and methods are provided for portable and compact nitric oxide (NO) generation that can be embedded into other therapeutic devices or used alone. In some embodiments, an ambulatory NO generation system can be comprised of a controller and disposable cartridge. The cartridge can contain filters and scavengers for preparing the gas used for NO generation and for scrubbing output gases prior to patient inhalation. The system can utilize an oxygen concentrator to increase nitric oxide production and compliment oxygen generator activity as an independent device. The system can also include a high voltage electrode assembly that is easily assembled and installed. Various nitric oxide delivery methods are provided, including the use of a nasal cannula.

A device for delivering medication to a user may include a circular or elliptical body that include a mouthpiece, a flexible strip of medication, a lever, and a mouthpiece cover, where the mouthpiece cover is rotatable about the body. The electronics module may include a communication circuit, a sensor system, and a switch. The lever may be configured to actuate the switch when the lever is moved from a closed position to an open position. The lever is configured to advance a dose of medication on the flexible strip when moved from the closed position to the open position. When actuated, the switch may be configured to switch the electronics module from an off state to an active state wen the lever is actuated for a first time by a user. Thereafter, the electronics module is configured to not return to the off state.

A thermal disinfection system and a method to perform a thermal disinfection procedure of fluid lines of a medical apparatus are disclosed herein. In an example, the thermal disinfection procedure comprises at least the steps of receiving a temperature signal from a temperature sensor, determining a measured temperature value of a fluid within a hydraulic circuit, receiving a pressure signal from a pressure sensor, determining a measured local atmospheric pressure value, and driving a heating unit to heat the fluid based on the measured temperature value and the measured local atmospheric pressure value.

Aspects include a method, system and computer program product for alleviating an episode of a movement disorder condition for a patient. The method comprises deploying an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to a location of a patient based on an occurrence of an episode of a movement disorder condition. A first gross sensory change stimulus is selected with a processor. The first gross sensory change stimulus is projected from the UAV. An attempt to alleviate the episode of the movement disorder condition is performed based at least in part on the projecting of the first gross sensory change stimulus from the UAV. The alleviating of the episode of the movement disorder condition is detected based on the gross sensory change stimulus from the UAV.

A server comprising a communication circuit and at least one processor is provided. The at least one processor is configured to identify whether a designated sleep preparation execution condition is met, if the sleep preparation execution condition is met, determine whether sleep states of one or more users corresponding to one or more electronic devices present in a home network are detected, and if the sleep states of the one or more users are detected, transmit a first control command indicating a designated first sleep start operation to a plurality of home devices present in the home network through the communication circuit.
