FOLDABLE ISOLATION SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE
A medial isolette is provided. A foldable box-type enclosure and base rail type enclosure are provided which supplies an economical and easily assembled isolation chamber. A flexible drape is provided to further isolate the patient and effectively control a negative pressure environment within the isolette. Access sports with integrated or removable gloves are provided to access the patient when the isolette is in use. A component access panel is provided for ducted connection of patient gas circuits and leads.
PORTABLE COLLAPSIBLE AIR ISOLATION APPARATUS
A collapsible air isolation apparatus is disclosed. The apparatus may include a collapsible frame including a base and a set of rigid panel elements at least partially enclosing a volume of space, where the set of rigid panel elements is foldably hinged to at least one of the base or another of the rigid panel elements, and where at least one panel of the set of rigid panel elements comprises an open space for mounting a motor for moving air. The apparatus may include the motor for moving air configured to create a negative pressure within the volume of space of the collapsible frame.
INTUBATION BARRIER BOX
A transparent intubation barrier in the form of a box is provided which substantially reduces aerosol exposure and the transmission of disease between patient and healthcare provider.
Containment Unit for Reducing Spread of Nasal/Oral Aerosols
Equipment for reducing spread of aerosol and other droplets in nasal and oral airways is provided. The equipment includes a shield optionally combined with a drape. The equipment limits the spread of aerosol and other droplets from a person's mouth and nose thereby reducing the need to decontaminate the procedure room after a procedure. The equipment also provides additional protection to the care-provider conducting the procedure. Additionally, the containment unit also reduces the exposure of the person to pathogens during the procedure, e.g., to pathogens present in the room where procedure is conducted and/or pathogens from the care provider. The equipment or parts thereof may be for single-use or can be reused after disinfection.
DISPOSABLE PATIENT ISOLATION HOOD
A disposable patient isolation hood is provided and includes a frame and an isolation element, wherein the frame includes a base and a support bridge, and two ends of the support bridge are respectively connected to the first end portion and the second end portion of the base. The isolation element is flexible, and at least a part thereof is made of a transparent material. The isolation element is arranged to cover the support bridge to form a space that can encompass at least a part of the subject in need. The disposable patient isolation hood is easy to carry and has high mobility, so that medical practitioners can be isolated and protected during medical treatment of patients even in the absence of medical resources or in emergency situations.
Aerosol reduction systems and methods
A system for reducing aerosols emitted from a patient on which a medical procedure is being performed. The system comprises a transparent dome and an adapter assembly configured to releasably support the dome. The system additionally comprises a support assembly configured to support the adapter assembly and the dome. The support assembly is adjustable such that the dome can be selectively positioned over an intended body area of the patient and block aerosols emitted from the intended body area.
DENTAL AND MEDICAL BARRIER
A barrier is provided for dental or medical procedures on patient. The barrier has a frame, a clear top connected to the frame and a disposable plastic sheeting connected around substantially an entire perimeter of the clear top, the disposable plastic sheeting covering the frame. The frame is supportable on a chair or table for supporting patient, the barrier intended to cover at least a head and portion of shoulders of a patient.
Reach-through Window Allowing Safe Touch Without Direct Contact
A reach-through visitation window designed to offer solutions to the deficiencies of traditional window visits by providing safe touch without direct contact for those meeting with visitors while in medical quarantine. The visitation window can include HEPA filter hearing panels to provide safe transmission of sound for natural, mask-free conversation without the need for electronics. Medical grade protective sleeves attached to the reach-through ports accommodate disposable gloves to ensure complete isolation between the resident and the visitor. The easily removable reach-through window fits into the screen track of the existing facility window system once the screen is removed and is secured in the same manner as the screen thus requiring no facility modifications. In most cases the reach-through visitation window can be left in place while the primary window is lowered and locked to secure the facility, or it can be easily removed until the next scheduled visit.
SELF-CONTAINED NEGATIVE PRESSURE ENVIRONMENT DEVICE AND SYSTEM
A system configured to create a self-contained negative pressure environment (SCONE) to remove airborne particulates emitted from a patient. The system prevents exposure to pathogenic biological airborne particulates during triage, transportation, and treatment, including aerosol generating procedures (AGPs) and end of life care. This system is directed to a collapsible device having a flexible cover covering two support members, with openings in the flexible cover such that medical professionals can reach in and operate within. The present invention is further adaptable to patients and operating environments of various sizes.
Respiratory Treatment Isolation Hood
An isolation hood for respiratory treatment is disclosed. The isolation hood may include a head enclosure defining an interior volume configured to receive the head of a patient, and a neck seal configured to couple the head enclosure to a neck of the patient. The isolation hood may include an inlet port configured to be coupled to a distal end of a treatment source tube and to a first end of a treatment delivery tube, and an outlet port configured to be coupled to an inline particle filter configured to permit air to flow through the head enclosure. The neck seal and the inline particle filter are each configured to prevent viral/bacterial aerosolization outside the hood. The inlet and outlet ports may be attached to respiratory tubing and non-invasive ventilatory equipment to permit aerosol-generating procedures within the hood while preventing viral/bacterial aerosolization outside the hood.
