A collapsible healthcare barrier device may be moveable between collapsed and erected positions. The device may include a left side panel, a front panel, a right side panel, and a top panel. The left side panel is hingedly connected to the left side of the front panel. The right side panel is hingedly connected to the right side of the front panel. The top panel is hingedly connected to the top of the front panel. The front panel includes at least one passageway through which a health care provider may extend his or her hands and arms to render care to a patient. The top panel may include a left lip member and a right lip member. A back flap may be hingedly connected to the rear of the top panel. The back flap may include a left wing member and a right wing member.

A patient barrier device includes a shield that defines a protective volume subjacent the shield and a patient's face. The patient barrier device further includes a fluid port in fluid communication with the protective volume. The patient barrier device further includes a mounting feature connected to the shield for supporting the shield relative to the patient's face. A system includes a patient barrier device having a shield that defines a protective volume subjacent the shield and the patient's face. The system further includes a pump coupled with the patient barrier device. A method includes positioning a patient barrier device over a face of a patient, the patient barrier device having a shield defining a protective volume over the face of the patient. The method further includes drawing air from the protective volume while the face of the patient is in the protective volume.

A controlled access aerosolized particle enclosure for isolation of airborne contaminants includes a frame defining a patient isolation region over a patient bed. A linkage attaches the framed enclosure to a patient treatment vehicle, and a flexible elasticized barrier is suspended by the frame for enclosing the patient isolation region. The barrier is formed from deformable planer sheets of a flexible transparent material and extending adjacent to the patient treatment surface forming a draped edge around the bed or transport. A low pressure source is in fluidic engagement with the enclosure for reducing a pressure within the enclosure below that of ambient surroundings, such that the low pressure source provides a pressure for drawing the elasticized barrier against the patient treatment surface for restricting airborne particle passage from the enclosure to the ambient surroundings, but limits the negative pressure to avoid substantial deformation or collapse of the enclosure.

Respiratory isolation systems and devices for facilitating delivery of respiratory treatments to a patient. The device incudes a housing, a filtration unit, and at least one access port. The housing includes a front panel, a rear panel, one or more side panels, and a top panel that combine to define a chamber. The housing defines an open base that is open to the chamber, and the front panel defines an opening to the chamber. The filtration unit is mounted to the housing and includes a filter in fluid communication with the chamber. The access port is formed through one of the panels and permits user access to the chamber from an exterior of the housing. When connected to an airflow source as part of a respiratory isolation system, negative or positive pressure can continuously be provided to a patient within the chamber.

An isolette comprising an array of instantly inflatable, prepackaged tubes, flexible sheeting, and a drape, is provided. Access ports allow patient access. A component access panel is provided. The drape includes an optional sealing ring held in position by a strap or medical tape. An alternative embodiment comprising a non-pressurized support frame and a drape subassembly is also provided. The support frame includes arches, cross beams, and support beams that are adhered together. The access ports can include iris diaphragms, covering flaps, integrated gloves, and removable gloves.

A collapsible isolation tent assembly includes a collapsible frame assembly, a flexible skin of impermeable material, and an air exchange arrangement, and further an air pump configured for being connected to the air exchange arrangement to effect a unidirectional air flow through the air exchange arrangement. The air pump has a pump capacity within the range of 85 per minute through 20,000 liters per minute. Openings in the flexible skin or around edges of the collapsible tent allow for an air flow compensating for the unidirectional air flow created by the air pump, and the collapsible isolation tent has a footprint dimensioned to be placed on a support surface for an individual patient, for example a hospital bed. A method for preventing air containing airborne pathogens from contaminating a surrounding space or the interior of the isolation tent involves operating an air pump in fluid communication with the collapsible tent.

A patient airway dome including an adjustable frame having a hinge such that the hinge allows the frame to adjust between an erected position to create an airway dome and a collapsed position that allows the frame to lay flat, a dome covering located over the retractable frame, a suction port which is connected to a conventional device in order to provide negative pressure to patient airway dome, and an arm access assembly operatively connected to the dome covering, wherein the arm access assembly includes an opening in the dome covering and a closure assembly located adjacent to the opening.

Protective shield unit provides a portable and reusable method for protecting medical staff during patient interaction. The protective shield unit is light weight, easily deployable, simple to use and reduces the amount of PPE that is needed by each medical staff. The protective shield unit includes an overhead frame that can be collapsible and a removably attachable flexible shield wall suspended from the frame for enclosing the patient. The shield wall is attachable to the frame from the outer surface of the shield wall such that the frame does not contact the inner surface of the shield wall, thereby blocking patient particulate exposure to the frame and preventing contamination during use.

An aerosolization mitigation device is provided. The aerosolization mitigation device can include a negative pressure aerosolization mitigation system. A transparent barrier can form a frame of the system, and a negative pressure can be generated in the internal volume. The device can isolate a patient to allow ambulatory, surgical, and routine care to proceed during periods of higher patient volume or viral transmission. The negative pressure environment mitigates viral transmission to protect healthcare providers and others in the vicinity of the patient from health risks during patient care.

The Mobile Screening and Utility Unit (MSUU) serves as an additional, exposure-reducing, enclosed barrier for screeners. The MSUU reduces contracting any virus such as COVID-19 by person-to-person contact or aerosol means from symptomatic or asymptomatic patients while the screener is inside the unit. Key features are: reusable, wheel-based (used in/outside), and sanitized/disinfected using methods endorsed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (thus reducing the need for expensive PPE). The unit front has a clear/transparent pane for visual acuity and two protective sleeves and pouch. The screener enters the unit from the rear, zips it shut, then moves forward to insert his or her arms through the sleeves and look through the pane. Screening is performed with minimal to no exposure to the screener. The screener can easily communicate without the use of additional audio equipment. Seated configurations are available that can be used with or without tables.
