The hiccup relieving apparatus includes a body with a first end having a mouthpiece, a second end having a restriction in the body between the first end and the second end. The restriction makes it difficult to draw fluid through the body to the user's mouth. The fluid can be air or the body can be immersed in water or other potable liquid in a container. The restriction requires an adult user, using the mouthpiece, to produce a threshold suction of for example water before water can flow from the water in the water container, through the body, through the mouthpiece, and to the user.

Endotracheal intubation support instrument comprises: a main body section having flexibility; a handle section and a blade section extending from both sides of the main body section respectively; and a U-shaped groove running through the main body section from the handle section to the blade section and allowing a flexible tube of a bronchial fiber to come in and out freely. The blade section comprises: a flap for subsuming all or a part of a larynx of a patient; and a lifting body having, on each bank of the U-shape groove, a first protruding portion allowed to contact with a peripheral portion of an epiglottis of the patient and a second protruding portion provided next to a main body section side of the first protruding portion and allowed to contact with a peripheral portion of a glossal root of the patient.

A system comprising a handpiece and drive system configured to removably couple to a proximal end of a housing. A scalpet assembly is configured to removeably couple to the housing, and includes a scalpet array comprising at least one scalpet configured for rotation. The scalpet array is configured to harvest dermal plugs via fractional resection. A collection chamber is configured to collect the dermal plugs, and to house formation of an injectable filler by mincing the dermal plugs, and mixing the dermal plugs with a carrier. The injectable filler is configured for bulk fill. The collection chamber includes a loading port, and a cannular syringe is configured to mate with the loading port to receive the injectable filler, and to deliver the injectable filler for the bulk fill.

An optically induced injection device is provided. The optically induced injection device includes: an injection needle, a light generator providing light to an affected area, a first optical cable which is disposed in the injection needle and through which the light passes, and an injection unit disposed in the injection needle and providing an injection solution to the affected area while the light is provided to the affected area.

A system for oral care of patients ventilated with an ETT tube 120 comprising: a deformable fluid blocking element 200 reversibly mountable around an ETT (for example, side-mountable thereon), the fluid blocking element having: a midsection channel 205 sized to fit snugly and reversibly around the ventilation tube 120 when the fluid blocking element is mounted thereto; and an outer surface configured, when the fluid blocking element is mounted, to fit snugly and reversibly into the back of the mouth of an adult human patient so as to span both lateral left-to-right tonsils and tongue-soft palate dimensions thereof, wherein the fluid blocking element 200 is reversibly inflatable to simultaneously press against the soft pallet and the tongue and/or the fluid blocking element 200 is collapsible and outwardly biased so that when placed in the back of the human mouth, the fluid blocking element expands so as to simultaneously press against the soft pallet and the tongue. Methods and kits are also disclosed herein.

Airway devices and uses of such airway devices are disclosed. The airway device comprises an elongated blade having first and second longitudinal edges and proximal and distal lateral edges. The blade has a proximal region that is proximate to the proximal lateral edge, and a distal region that is proximate to the distal lateral edge. The blade may have a substantially flat configuration. In some embodiments, a pair of side components is arranged laterally spaced-apart in mirror image symmetry with respect to a central longitudinal axis of the blade. Each of the side components is arranged to project outwardly from a first face of the elongated blade at the distal region thereof. A distal plate region may be defined by a space separating the pair of side components, dimensioned for an airway or ventilation device such as an ETT to pass therethrough towards a distal tip of the blade.

An oral airway includes a tubular body having a first end and a second end, and defining a first portion of an air flow channel, and a leg extending outwardly from the first end of the body, the leg defining a second portion of the air flow channel.
