A respiratory pressure therapy (RPT) device is disclosed for treatment of respiratory-related disorders. The RPT device includes a pressure generator, a pneumatic block, a chassis and a device outlet for delivering a supply of flow of gas to a patient interface. The RPT device also comprises an integrated humidifier including a water reservoir. An RPT device is also disclosed that includes a wireless data communication interface integrated with the housing and configured to connect to another device or a network.

The invention relates to a device for olfactory stimulation of a patient with a plurality of scents, said device comprising: —a source (2) of a carrier gas (G); —a plurality of scent odorization circuits, each odorization circuit (4) comprising: —a container (18) containing an odorous volatile substance (V), —a container inlet line (26), provided with a container inlet valve (28), connecting an inlet (30) of said container with said source of carrier gas, and —a container outlet line (36), provided with a container outlet valve (38), connecting an outlet (40) of said container with an exit line (12); —a control unit (8), configured to control said container inlet valve and container outlet valve according to a medical protocol.

A cart for medical equipment includes a base having one or more wheels, a column supported by the base, and a platform supported on the column and opposite the base. The platform is configured to mount a piece of medical equipment to the cart. The cart also includes an adapter plate securable to the piece of medical equipment and configured to releasably couple to the platform. The adapter plate includes a locking assembly having one or more handles that upon actuation releases the adapter plate from the platform.

A portable ventilator includes a ventilation drive configured to drive ventilation gas from a gas source to a patient, wherein the portable ventilator is configured to removably connect to a host such that when the portable ventilator is connected to the host the ventilation drive drives ventilation gas from a host gas source to the patient and when the portable ventilator is not connected to the host the ventilation drive drives ventilation gas from a portable gas source to the patient.

The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is a mechanical structure. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is configured for use with a patient. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is a relaxation inducing device. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is rubbed by the patient to induce relaxation. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip comprises a sheeting structure and a grommet. The grommet mounts on the sheeting structure. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip forms the structure that generates that induced the relaxation response for the patient. The grommet forms an anchor point that allows the pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip to clip to an externally provided structure.

A vacuum shield assembly and related vacuum system intended for attachment to an existing medical mask for oxygen delivery, air suction, nebulization, BIPAP, and/or CPAP. The vacuum shield assembly generally comprises a shield body and a retaining assembly. The retaining assembly may attach the vacuum shield assembly to a vacuum tube of the existing mask, which may be connected to a negative pressure vacuum system. The retaining assembly may also be attached to a nebulizer unit or component thereof, or to an oxygen supply tube of a BIPAP or CPAP mask, or a mask configured for oxygen delivery. The shield body may comprise a lower segment, which may comprise a connecting component configured and dimensioned for attachment to, and for a fluid communication, with the retaining assembly. The shield body may be configured and dimensioned to correspond to the geometry of the existing mask.

A breast pumping assembly is provided. The assembly allows for a breast pumping mother to be optimally positioned and comfortable while pumping breast milk, leading to quicker and more effective pumping. The breast pumping assembly is adjustable to adapt for different sized mothers and changing body size and shape as pumping progresses.

A medical infusion fluid handling system, such as an automated peritoneal dialysis system, may be arranged to de-cap and connect one or more lines (such as solution lines) with one or more spikes or other connection ports on a fluid handling cassette. This feature may reduce a likelihood of contamination since no human interaction is required to de-cap and connect the one or more lines and the one or more spikes. For example, the automated peritoneal dialysis system may include a carriage arranged to receive the one or more lines each having a connector end and a cap. The carriage may move along a first direction so as to move the connector ends of the one or more lines along the first direction, and a cap stripper may be arranged to engage with the caps on the solution lines on the carriage. The cap stripper may move in a second direction transverse to the first direction, as well as to move with the carriage along the first direction.

A medical treatment system, such as a peritoneal dialysis system, may include a control and other features to enhance patient comfort and ease of use. For example, a cycler device may include a heater bag receiving section and a lid mounted to cover and uncover the heater bag receiving section, potentially enabling faster heating of a dialysate. A user interface may be moveable to be received into the receiving section and covered by the lid, if desired. The system may detect anomalous conditions, such as tilting of a housing of the system, and automatically recover without terminating a treatment. The system may include noise reduction features, such as porting pneumatic outputs to a common chamber, and others. The system may also automatically detect any one of several different solution lines connected to the system, and control operation accordingly, e.g., to mix solutions provided by two or more lines and form a needed dialysate solution. A cassette control surface may be arranged to have one or more ports that can detect a presence of a liquid, e.g., to identify if a cassette is leaking or has otherwise been compromised.

A head up CPR system may include a base and an upper support coupled with the base and configured to elevate a patient's upper body. The system may include a chest compression device that is coupleable with one or both of the base and the upper support and a positive pressure ventilation system that is coupleable with the base.
