A water bottle with a pressurized compartment and an unpressurized compartment to integrate supplemental oxygen delivery into a hydration and electrolyte management system. The unpressurized compartment may be manually filled with a fluid. The user may consume fluid from the unpressurized compartment and an aerosol from the pressurized compartment independently or simultaneously.

Disclosed is an oral mucosa delivery system that allows a composition housed therein to be dispensed in different amount and/or for different duration. The delivery system may comprise a spray cap or an aerosol cap capable of controlling the delivery duration and/or amount by a mechanical or electronic means.

The present invention provides a system, a kit and a use thereof for oral mucosa delivery of a composition. The composition may comprise at least two sub-compositions admixed right before dispensing to the oral mucosa. In one embodiment, the system is a pressurized system. In another embodiment, the admixed sub-compositions are atomized. In one embodiment, one of the sub-compositions comprise a beneficiary gas, such as oxygen. In another embodiment, one of the sub-compositions comprise a nutritional supplement, a nutraceutical composition, a pharmaceutical composition, or any combinations thereof.

A device for delivering a predetermined amount of at least one substance to a body orifice of a subject includes a) a container for containing said at least one substance; b) a delivery end for placement in proximity to the orifice, the delivery end being in fluid communication with the container; c) a valve mechanically connectable to said container, characterized by at least two configurations: (i) an ACTIVE CONFIGURATION in which said valve enables delivery of predetermined amount of said substance from said container to said body orifice via said delivery end; and, (ii) an INACTIVE CONFIGURATION, in which said valve prevents delivery of said predetermined amount of said substance from said container to said body orifice; d) a trigger mechanism adapted to reconfigure said valve from said INACTIVE CONFIGURATION to said ACTIVE CONFIGURATION, and vice versa; and e) a fluid tight chamber.

A system for delivery of aerosol therapy to spontaneously breathing patients comprises a housing which defines a chamber. The housing has a base, a top and a main body extending between the base and the top. An ambient air inlet is located adjacent to the base and is normally closed by an inlet valve. The housing also has a patient port for receiving a mouthpiece or a face mask. The mouthpiece has an exhaust outlet closed by an exhaust valve. Similarly, the face mask has an exhaust outlet closed by an exhaust valve. Exhaled air is exhausted through the valves and to prevent recirculation through the chamber which would adversely affect dose efficiencies. The housing also has an aerosol port for receiving a vibrating mesh aerosol generating device. The aerosol port is located in a side of the main body of the housing for delivery of aerosol into the chamber between the inlet valve and the patient port. A boss extends upwardly from the base and is spaced-apart inwardly of the main body of the housing to define a reception space or well.

An oscillating positive expiratory pressure device comprising a housing enclosing at least one chamber, a chamber inlet configured to receive exhaled air into the at least one chamber, and a chamber outlet configured to permit exhaled air to exit the at least one chamber. A channel is positioned in an exhalation flow path between the chamber inlet and the chamber outlet, with the channel being movably connected to a chamber of the at least one chamber. An air flow regulator is movable with respect to the channel between a first position, where the flow of air through the channel is restricted and a second position, where the flow of air through the channel is less restricted, the air flow regulator being configured to repeatedly move between the first position and the second position in response to a flow of exhaled air.

A dry powder aerosol delivery device and related methods for delivering precise and repeatable dosages to a subject for pulmonary use is disclosed. The dry powder aerosol delivery device includes a housing, a cartridge, and a dry powder dispersion mechanism, and at least one differential pressure sensor. The dry powder delivery device is automatically breath actuated by the user when the differential pressure sensor senses a predetermined pressure change within housing. The dry powder aerosol delivery device is then actuated to generate a plume of particles having an average ejected particle diameter within the respirable size range, e.g., less than about 5-6 μm, so as to target the pulmonary system of the user.
