An apparatus may be configured for providing feedback to caregivers during a code blue scenario when adhered to the chest of a subject undergoing resuscitation by sensing and transmitting information associated with the code blue scenario. Such information may include one or more of vital signs of the subject during resuscitation, information associated with chest movements of the subject during resuscitation, and audio information from an environment of the subject during resuscitation. One or more processors may generate real-time feedback for communication to the caregivers during the code blue scenario based on the sensed and transmitted information.

The wound treatment apparatus combines an internal negative pressure (vacuum) pump and an internal positive pressure (compressor) pump connectable to an external oxygen supply for providing both negative pressure wound therapy and hyperbaric oxygen wound therapy to a wound site. The apparatus also includes a user interface operatively connected to an electronic controller that monitors and actuates the vacuum and compressor pumps. The user interface and controller enables the apparatus to provide multiple modes of operation and the ability to selectively change between negative pressure therapy operational modes and hyperbaric oxygen operational modes.

The invention includes catheters that have therapeutic agent- and therapeutic energy-delivery capability. In particular embodiments, the catheters include only a single therapeutic energy transducer that is configured to deliver energy to over half of the circumference of the catheter. The therapeutic catheters of the invention allow for faster and more effective thrombus removal because of the simultaneous delivery of therapeutic agents and energy.

There is provided a respiratory apparatus. The respiratory apparatus comprises a respiratory interface configured to aid a user in respiration and an attachment configured to hold the respiratory interface in position on the face of the user. The respiratory apparatus also comprises at least one electrode configured to provide electrical stimulation to one or more facial muscles of the user.

Described is a low voltage, pulsed electrical stimulation device for reducing inflammation in a subject, which can be useful in the treatment of concussions, traumatic brain injury, cancer, and so forth.

The present invention provides a synthetic treatment apparatus which comprises; a connection part in which treatment part modules are replaced and are connected to or separated from each other, the treatment part modules performing inhalation, suction, light emitting, and aerosol functions, respectively, which are required for treatment for a respiratory disease and ear disease; a power part for supplying power to the treatment part modules according to an operation of a power switch; and a control part for controlling the power module and functions of the treatment part modules, wherein a grip part is formed on the outside of a body in which the power part and the control part are embedded. The present invention can treat various ear and respiratory diseases by replacing a head of the apparatus,

Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for delivering respiratory treatment to a patient. For example, a treatment system may include a mechanism for delivering a positive pressure breath to a patient, and one or more limb flow control assemblies which modulate gas flow to and from the patient. Exemplary treatment techniques are embodied in anesthesia machines, mechanical ventilators, and manual ventilators.

Described is a low voltage, pulsed electrical stimulation device for controlling expression of, for example, follistatin, a muscle formation promotion protein, by tissues. Epicardial stimulation is especially useful for heart treatment. Follistatin controlled release is also useful for treating other ailments, such as erectile dysfunction, aortic aneurysm, and failing heart valves.

The present invention relates to a device and method of delivering inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) to a patient situated in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) suite.

A scalpel body including an attachment for a removable blade, a spray head adapted to operatively deliver a surgical liquid as a spray proximal to a removable blade, and an external connection for allowing the spray head to be connected to an external supply of surgical liquid. A release mechanism allows for selective release of the spray, proximal to the blade.
