An incentive spirometer medical device having a mouth piece protected by an enclosure when not in use and being able to be operated by one hand to open to access the mouth piece.

Apparatus for a ventilator, comprises a control means (108) configured to: receive state information indicative of pressure being above or below at least one predetermined threshold pressure at at least one pressure switch (208), and control an air movement device to repeatedly cause inflation of lungs of the patient and allow deflation, dependent at least on the received state information. In use, the at least one pressure switch is located at a pressure representative of air pressure in lungs (202) of a patient. The state information does not comprise an absolute numerical pressure value at the at least one pressure switch.

A portable, self-sanitizing microneedle device similar in size and shape to a pen, or marker that can be held and manipulated by a human hand. The microneedle device is comprised of a main body with a handle attached to a circular base support structure, a second circular platform structure having screw threads to connect with screw threads on the inside of a substantially conical-shaped cap with a hexagonal base that holds a disinfecting solution, and a third circular platform structure comprising the microneedle support structure covered with a substrate holding a plurality of microneedles. The cap is sealingly and removably attached to the base support structure over the microneedle array using a plurality of sealing surfaces within the cap and on the support structures to create a tight seal that prevents the leakage of the disinfecting solution, and keeps the microneedles sanitized for use at all times, even when traveling.

An expression kit (2) for use in a breast pump device (1) for extracting breast milk from a human breast comprises a breast pump body (20) having a first pressure chamber (21), a second pressure chamber (22), and a membrane portion (5) separating the first and the second pressure chamber (21, 22) from each other. The membrane portion (5) is configured to form a barrier between the first and the second pressure chamber (21, 22) for preventing leakage of human breast milk from the second pressure chamber (22) to the first pressure chamber (21), yet to allow for air exchange between the first and the second pressure chamber (21, 22), wherein the membrane portion (5) is hydrophobic and has the shape of a solid sheet being provided with holes (50) which are configured for rendering the sheet permeable to air and impermeable to liquid.

A multi-dose disposable fluid delivery system includes at least one fluid container, a multi-use fluid path set, and a plurality of single-use fluid path sets. The at least one fluid container has a connection port configured for fluidly connecting with a first end of the multi-use fluid path set. The second end of the multi-fluid path set is configured for fluidly connecting to a fluid injection apparatus. The plurality of single-use fluid path sets is connected in sequence to define a fluid path extending from a first single-use fluid path set to a last single- use fluid path set. Each of the plurality single-use fluid path sets has a first end and a second end. The first end of the first single-use fluid path set is configured for connecting to a delivery line. The second end of the last single-use fluid path set is configured for connecting to the injection apparatus.

An incentive spirometer medical device having a mouth piece protected by an enclosure when not in use and being able to be operated by one hand to open to access the mouth piece.

Devices systems and methods are disclosed for removing secretions from the lumen of a functional assessment catheter for the lungs. The system comprises a flushing unit configured to deliver a clearing fluid to the lumen of the pulmonary catheter to remove debris, secretions, or moisture from the lumen or sensors.

Systems, devices, and methods for treating a tissue site on a patient with reduced pressure are presented. In one instance, a reduced-pressure treatment device to treat a tissue site with reduced pressure may include a pump control unit fluidly separate from a collection unit. Pump energy may be provided by the pump control unit to deflect one or more diaphragms within the collection unit to create reduced pressure. Other systems, devices, and methods are presented.

A facemask configured to be used by multiple sized/shaped heads can include a primary, a secondary and a tertiary seal. In some embodiments, the primary seal is contact with the nose and cheek regions; the secondary seal is in contact with the chin region; and the tertiary seal is in contact with the cheek and chin regions. In some embodiments, the tertiary seal extends inwardly and outwardly when applied to the face. In some embodiments, the mask includes test scissors.

The invention relates to a hand-held device particularly for tattooing, comprising a handle part (2) with a drive (4), a needle module (3) which is detachably secured to said handle part (2) and comprises a needle (13) that can be moved back and forth by means of said drive (4), and a protective sleeve (33) which fully separates the needle module (3) from the handle part (2). The needle (13) is connected to the drive (4) by means of a form-fitting and/or magnetic coupling comprising coupling elements (19, 22), and the protective sleeve (33) is held releasably between the coupling elements (19, 22).
