An aerosol generator for an aerosol dispenser is presented where, the aerosol generator has a housing having an inlet part comprising a liquid inlet configured to guide a liquid jet (L) into the housing and an air inlet configured to guide an air flow into the housing. The housing further having an outlet part having an aerosol outlet configured to guide an aerosol (C) of liquid mixed with air out of the housing. The air inlet is configured such that at least part of the air flow entering the housing through the air inlet is obstructed at a distance from the liquid jet (L) entering the housing through the liquid inlet, thereby creating a source of turbulence in the housing to interact with droplets of the liquid jet (L) to prevent coalescence of the droplets.

The present invention is a nebulizer, aerosol, filter or inhalant handheld system. The device is composed of a non-invasive respiratory circuit with a medication reservoir that has an inlet that is configured to be connected to a gas source. In some embodiments, they include of one or more valves located downstream of the medication reservoir. Some embodiments include one or more filters, such as a bacterial viral filter located on the end of the exhalation port. The valve functions to prevent backflow of exhaled air and/or potential pathogens into the atmosphere. The filter functions to significantly reduce the dispersion of aerosols exhaled into the atmosphere and prevent further spread of potential pathogens. Some embodiment may include one or more pivotable elements allowing some portions of the nebulizer to pivot relative to other members.

A capsule for a heat-not-burn (HNB) aerosol-generating device may include a first heater, a second heater, and a frame sandwiched between the first heater and the second heater, and a cannabinoid-containing material. The frame may define open spaces therein and have a rigidity that is adequate to support the first heater and the second heater. The open spaces within the frame may be interconnected and sized for aerosol-permeability and capillary action.

In general, systems for administering a dmg are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a dmg administration system includes a dmg administration device configured to communicate with a computer system and at least one sensor configured to obtain sensor data and communicate the sensor data to the drug administration device. The dmg administration device is configured to utilize a first drug dosing scheme when a drug is delivered to a patient, determine a second drug dosing scheme for delivering a drug to the patient dependent on dosing data from the computer system and sensor data collected by the sensor during and/or after the delivery of the first drug according to the first drug dosing scheme, and utilize the second drug dosing scheme when the drug is delivered to the patient.

The present invention provides a particulate delivery device with an automatic activation mechanism that pierces or cuts a composition capsule when a cap is removed. The cap cannot be replaced once the device is activated for use. The device allows for gas flow through the device from a gas inlet to a gas outlet through a composition receptacle and dispersion chamber to deliver particulate to the airway of a subject.

The present invention relates to an add-on device for a metered dose inhaler, an observance improvement system, and a method for improving observance of use in metered dose inhalers, the add-on device comprising an observance system housing component comprising an observance system with at least one pressure sensor; a mouthpiece component configured to fit, surround and removably engage with an exterior surface of a mouthpiece outlet provided on the metered dose inhaler; wherein said observance system housing is configured to fit and removably engage with said mouthpiece component; and said mouthpiece component is specifically adapted to conform to the exterior surface of the mouthpiece outlet of the metered dose inhaler without obstructing delivery of a dose of drug through said outlet.

A dilution spacer for a metered-dose inhaler comprises an enclosure defining a dilution chamber. An ambient air inlet and an outlet are in fluid communication with the dilution chamber. The ambient air inlet is positioned opposite the outlet whereby suction through the outlet from outside the enclosure draws ambient air into the enclosure through the ambient air inlet to generate an airflow path from the ambient air inlet through the dilution chamber and out of the outlet. The dilution spacer may include an actuator inlet configured to securely releasably interengage a metered-dose inhaler actuator mouthpiece, or may include a receptacle having an actuator nozzle and configured to receive a metered-dose inhaler canister, A metered-dose inhaler plume entering the dilution chamber intersects the airflow path thereto and airflow along the airflow path entrains and redirects at least a portion of the metered-dose inhaler plume toward the outlet.

An adaptor for a respiratory assistance system delivers aerosols to a patient. The adaptor is lightweight with a small footprint to increase patient comfort. The adaptor has a nozzle and a sealing mechanism to maintain pressure therein regardless of whether the nozzle is inserted into the adaptor. The adaptor is configured to connect to medical tubing and a medicament delivery device.

An aerosol assembly for a medicament delivery device is provided having a nozzle chip assembly including a carrier and a nozzle chip provided on the carrier, a holding structure having a fluid channel extending through the holding structure, wherein the nozzle chip assembly is configured to be mounted into the fluid channel such that fluid flowing through the fluid channel passes through the nozzle chip, and an elastic sealing member configured to be arranged with a tight fit in the fluid channel, the sealing member having a central through-opening configured to receive the nozzle chip to seal the nozzle chip towards the carrier.

Dispensing assembly, comprising a fluid product dispenser, such as a nasal dispenser, wherein the fluid product dispenser comprises a reservoir (10) provided with a bottom (11), a dispensing member (20), such as a pump or a valve, mounted on the reservoir (10), and a dispensing head (30) incorporating a dispensing orifice (31), the dispensing assembly comprising a lateral actuation device comprising a body (1) and a lateral actuation element (40) mounted so as to pivot on the body (1) about a pivot axis (45) between a rest position and an actuation position, the actuation element (40) comprising a bearing part (41), which is pressed by the user during actuation and a pushing part (42) designed to cooperate with the fluid product dispenser to effect the actuation thereof, the pivot axis (45) being arranged between the bearing part (41) and the pushing part (42), the lateral actuation member (40) having an S or inverted S shape, the bearing part (41) being arranged near the dispensing head (30) and the pushing part (42) being arranged under the bottom (11) of the reservoir (10).
