A gas-evolving composition delivery system is disclosed, which comprises a pressurized container having a dispenser, and a liquid gas-evolving composition, such as an acidified nitrite solution, within the pressurized container, wherein the pressurized container has an internal pressure sufficient to minimize gas production from the gas-evolving composition while within the container. Also disclosed is a method of stabilizing an acidified nitrite solution comprising loading the solution into a container and sealing the container to be airtight.

An inspiratory resistor valve system (IRV) to regulate intrathoracic pressure during positive pressure breathing, spontaneous inspirations, and CPR may include an inspiratory port. The IRV system may include patient port. The IRV system may include a separate expiratory port. The IRV may include a plurality of atmospheric pressure sensitive valves. The plurality of atmospheric pressure sensitive valves may isolate the expiratory port and the inspiratory port from one another.

The invention relates to a valve, in particular for a device for administering a liquid medicament, with a valve body (1) which has an interior (2) for receiving a liquid (20), wherein the valve body (1) has a liquid inlet (3) and an opposite liquid outlet (4) which both open into the interior (2), wherein the interior (2) accommodates a large number of micro channels (5) which extend in connection direction (x) between the liquid inlet (3) and the liquid outlet (4). A corresponding device for administering a liquid medicament is also described.

A medicine dispensing device includes a first tubular body and a second tubular body. The first tubular body has an internal receiving space for disposing a liquid medicine and a stop member. A removable section is disposed at a dispensing end of the first tubular body. A neck section is disposed at one end distal from the removable section. The second tubular body includes a tube sealing section, a compression section and a communication tube section. One end of the communication tube section, which end is distal from the tube sealing section, is in communication with the neck section, whereby the receiving space is in communication with the interior of the second tubular body. The stop member blocks the neck section and interrupts the internal passage of the neck section to prevent the liquid medicine from flowing into or stagnating in the second tubular body in use.

Systems, devices, and methods for a pelvic floor rehabilitation device are provided. A pelvic floor rehabilitation device includes a handle for holding the device, a shaft extending from the handle which can be inserted into a vagina and caused to expand at least in part, a controller which receives instructions to control operation of the device, and at least one sensor to collect data during operation of the device. The device may further include a transmitter to transmit the collected data to a computing device. The device may further include a lubrication system for lubricating the vagina and a temperature system for heating or cooling the vagina. The device may further include buttons by which a user can control the operation of the device.

The invention relates to a device for treating an individual suffering from cardiac or circulatory arrest or from a stroke, comprising a blood withdrawal device (BE) that is applied to the individual (P), an analysis unit (BA) which is directly or indirectly connected to the blood withdrawal device for detecting a blood analysis result (BAE) providing at least one characteristic of the blood, directly or indirectly connected to a blood return device (BR) that is applied to the individual (P) and is designed to deliver a substance to the individual via the return device (BR).

A medical device is provided for irrigation of a patient wound site. The device contains a tube having a proximal portion adapted to receive an irrigation solution, a distal portion having a nozzle and an intermediate portion for transporting the solution. The tube has a barrel portion that may be manipulated by a user to position the device relative to the wound site. A distinctive nozzle has a body formed with a distally leading channel presenting a semispherical first spatial conformation and a proximally leading opening formed in the body presenting a second spatial conformation intersecting the semispherical terminus. This geometry, derived from principles of flow mechanics discussed herein, defines what will be described as an “effective diameter” of the nozzle. An assembly and system utilizing the device are also disclosed. The invention utilizes a fluid-isolating durable peristaltic pump for a continuous flow of irrigation solution, along with a single use tube set that embodies the device.

A delivery device for and method of modulating a condition relating to social cognition and/or behaviour in a human subject using oxytocin, non-peptide agonists thereof and/or antagonists thereof, comprising: providing a nosepiece to a first nasal cavity of the subject; and providing a supply unit for administering less than 24 IU of oxytocin, non-peptide agonists thereof and/or antagonists thereof through the nosepiece to an upper region posterior of the nasal valve which is innervated by the trigeminal nerve.

Nanoparticles are suspended in a fluid medium which is activated using an ultrasonic transducer in contact with the fluid medium. The fluid may be injected into a body cavity and ultrasonically activated to induce a cavitation effect. The body cavity may contain a natural or artificial hard surface, inflamed or with a biofilm harnessing bacteria, such as a bone, joint or implant, as well as the surrounding tissue. In an embodiment, a treatment device may be used before, during or after a procedure such as a minimally invasive or open surgery to disinfect the body cavity via irrigation with liquid containing suspended nanoparticles and ultrasonically activated. The irrigation device may supply the cavity with the liquid and include therein an ultrasonic transducer. The cleaning and disinfecting process may be performed as treatment of infection in absence of another surgical procedure.
