Integrated sleep diagnostic and therapeutic system and method
The present invention relates to an integrated sleep diagnosis and treatment device, and more particularly to an integrated apnea diagnosis and treatment device. The present invention additionally relates to methods of sleep diagnosis and treatment. The sleep disorder treatment system of the present invention can use a diagnosis device to perform various forms of analysis to determine or diagnose a subject's sleeping disorder or symptoms of a subject's sleep disorder, and using this analysis or diagnosis can with or in some embodiments without human intervention treat the subject either physically or chemically to improve the sleeping disorder or the symptoms of the sleeping disorder. The diagnostic part of the system can use many different types of sensors and methods for diagnosing the severity of the symptoms of or the sleep disorder itself. The treatment part of the system can use a device to physically or chemically treat the subject's symptoms or sleep disorder itself.
SURGICAL MUSCLE PARALYSIS MEASUREMENT DEVICE
A neuromuscular test device for assessing a level of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) in an anesthetized patient includes a stimulation circuit for initiating a muscular stimulus in a muscle structure, and a testing circuit for measuring an activity level responsive to the muscular stimulus. A flexible, closed vessel is responsive to a musculature response for inducing a pressure, and a pressure sensor in communication with the closed vessel generates a pressure signal indicative of the musculature response to the muscular stimulus.
SYSTEMS, METHODS AND DEVICES FOR PAIRED PLASTICITY
Systems, methods and devices for paired training include timing controls so that training and neural stimulation can be provided simultaneously. Paired trainings may include therapies, rehabilitation and performance enhancement training. Stimulations of nerves such as the vagus nerve that affect subcortical regions such as the nucleus basalis, locus coeruleus or amygdala induce plasticity in the brain, enhancing the effects of a variety of therapies, such as those used to treat tinnitus, stroke, traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder.
MODULAR MONITORING AND VENTILATION SYSTEM
A modular monitoring and ventilation system includes a standalone monitor unit for monitoring patient-related parameters that are indicative of the physiological status of a patient, which receives at least one signal indicative of such a patient-related parameter from at least one sensor and that displays information related to that signal on a display, and a standalone, portable pneumatic unit for ventilatory treatment of a patient by supplying breathing gas to the patient. The monitor unit and the pneumatic unit are able to placed in a paired state in which they are communicatively connected to each other for information exchange, and in which those units cooperate to provide ventilatory treatment to the patient, with operation of the portable pneumatic unit being controlled based on the signal that is indicative of the monitored patient-related parameter, received by the monitor unit from the at least one sensor.

PORTABLE LIGHT-WEIGHT VENTILATOR SYSTEM
A ventilator system for providing respiratory support in cases of acute respiratory failure or severe trauma is described. The ventilator system comprises a ventilator and a tubing system. The system is characterized in that the ventilator comprises a continuous bleed valve configured to be open to air flow from the blower at all times when the blower is operating during both inspiration and expiration; thereby providing a minimal amount of pressure within a patient's lungs at the end of each exhalation—positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP). In an embodiment of the invention the system comprises a manifold block configured to hold the main operating elements of ventilator.
Hand Dressing For Use With Negative Pressure Wound Therapy, Negative Pressure Wound Therapy System Comprising The Same, Method For Controlling A Pump Coupled To Said Dressing
A dressing includes a first manifold layer, a second manifold layer, a first barrier layer coupled to the first manifold layer, a second barrier layer coupled to the second manifold layer, a first fenestrated film layer coupled to the first manifold layer, and a second fenestrated film layer coupled to the second manifold layer. The first manifold layer and the second manifold layer are positioned between the first barrier layer and the second barrier layer. The first fenestrated film layer and the second fenestrated film layer are positioned between the first manifold layer and the second manifold layer.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SENSING AND STIMULATION
A system for stimulating body tissue may include a stimulation lead, sensors, and a control unit. The stimulation lead may include one or more energy sources. The control unit may include a processor and non-transitory computer readable medium, and an interface (e.g., touch screen interface) for receiving user inputs and communicating information to the user. The sensors may be configured to provide impedance measurements to the control unit. The control unit may calculate lung gas distributions and/or generate an image modeling lung gas distributions. Stimulation delivered by the stimulation may be adjusted based on the impedance measurements.
