Method and device for the dispensation of mists for therapeutic use
A device and associated method for the dispensation of mists for therapeutic use, comprising: a dispensing member (2) for dispensing an air flow (3) within which micronized particles of a liquid or solid therapeutic substance are dispersed; a chamber (11) having at least one inlet (12) for said air flow (3) generated by the dispensing member (2) and at least one outlet (13) for said air flow (3) present inside the chamber (11) itself; and a communication conduit (10) interposed between said dispensing member (2) and said chamber (11) in order to introduce the air flow (3) into the chamber (11) itself; said chamber (11) being switchable between an operative condition of maximum volume in which it internally defines a space (20) for containing at least one user, and a non-operative condition of minimum volume suitable for transport and/or storage.
Vaporization method and apparatus
An electronic vapor device is disclosed comprising a vapor outlet, a first container for storing a first vaporizable material, wherein the first container is permanently integrated into the electronic vapor device, a second container for storing a second vaporizable material, wherein the second container is removable from the electronic vapor device, a docking bay configured to receive the second container, wherein the second container is removed from or inserted into the docking bay through a door, and a vaporizer component configured for vaporizing the first vaporizable material or the second vaporizable material to generate a vapor and for providing the vapor to the vapor outlet.

Vapor delivery device
A vapor delivery device having a reservoir for containing an amount of fluid. An ejector receives the fluid, and a controller fires the ejector to express a given dosage of the fluid through a number of nozzles in the ejector into an airstream at a firing frequency and for a firing duration. As the amount of the fluid within the reservoir decreases, the controller also at least one of reduces the firing frequency of the ejector, increases the number of nozzles, and increases the firing duration.
Methods of treating RSV infections
Methods are provided for the treatment of RSV infections in young children. More specifically, methods are provided wherein polypeptides that bind F protein of hRSV and that neutralize RSV infection are administered to the lungs of young children at specific dose regimens.
Aerosol delivery device including a bubble jet head and related method
The present disclosure relates to aerosol delivery devices. The aerosol delivery devices include mechanisms configured to deliver an aerosol precursor composition from a reservoir to an atomizer including a vaporization heating element to produce a vapor. For example, a bubble jet head may be configured to dispense the aerosol precursor composition to the atomizer. The bubble jet head may be fixedly coupled to the atomizer. The bubble jet head may include a precursor inlet, an ejection heating element, and a precursor nozzle. The atomizer may include a vaporization heating element.
INSPIRATORY SYNTHESIS OF NITRIC OXIDE
A system for generating nitric oxide can include an apparatus positioned in a trachea of a mammal, the apparatus in-eluding a respiration sensor for collecting information related to one or more triggering events associated with the trachea, an oxygen sensor for collecting information related to a concentration of oxygen in a gas, and one or more pairs of electrodes for initiating a series of electric arcs to generate nitric oxide, and the system for generating nitric oxide can also include a controller for determining one or more control parameters based on the information collected by the respiration sensor and the oxygen sensor, wherein the series of electric arcs is initiated based on the control parameters determined by the controller.

Electrospray atomizing device that sprays at a constant rate
An electrospray atomizing device that sprays at a constant rate comprises a main unit containing a circuit board, an electrode plate, liquid tanks and syringes. The electrode plate includes the sealed liquid tanks and the syringes, and the circuit board connects electric current to the electrode plate and the syringes. The present invention further includes a power mechanism and a dosing device. The power mechanism drives a screw to ascend or descend, pushing the pistons of the dosing device through a speed changer. The syringes are connected with the liquid tanks. When the pistons are linked by the power mechanism and the speed changer to ascend, the liquid in the liquid tanks is sprayed at a constant rate through the syringes, forming mist which carries negative ions. When the pistons descend, the ambient liquid is sucked into the liquid tanks through the syringes, waiting for a next electrospray.
