Device for performing orientation dependent aerosol therapy
A respiratory device comprising a housing enclosing a chamber and an orientation indicator moveable with respect to the housing between a first position indicative of an orientation of the housing predetermined to be suitable for operation of the respiratory device, and a second position indicative of an orientation of the respiratory device predetermined to be less suitable for operation of the respiratory device. The orientation indicator is positioned in a location on the respiratory device visible to a user during the operation of the respiratory device.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR HYPOXIA
Systems and methods for hypoxia delivery are provided. An apparatus for providing intermittent normoxia and hypoxia intervals includes a breathing component, a normoxia fluid source, a hypoxia fluid source, a valve, and a control system. The valve is configured to disrupt flow from at least one of the normoxia fluid source and the hypoxia fluid source and the control system is configured to cause the at least one valve to switch between delivery of fluid from the normoxia fluid source and the hypoxia fluid source while maintaining positive pressure at the breathing component.
OSCILLATING POSITIVE EXPIRATORY PRESSURE DEVICE
An oscillating positive expiratory pressure device includes a housing, a top cover, and an oscillating unit. The housing includes a bottom wall and a surrounding wall. The bottom wall has an inclined enclosing surface extending downwardly and terminating at an opening. The oscillating unit is swingably connected to and disposed within the housing. The oscillating unit includes a swing member, and first and second weighting pieces. The swing member includes a swing arm, and first and second swing blocks connected to the swing arm. The first weighting piece is carried on the first swing block. The second weighting piece is carried on the second swing block. The swing arm is swingable to move the second swing block to block and unblock the opening.
Breathing app
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions associated with breathing. The instructions, when executed by a processor of a user device, causes the user device to perform the following operations: transmitting to a breathing device a breathing pattern including at least two of the following: an inhale period, an exhale period, and hold period, receiving data from the breathing device associated with the breathing pattern, receiving breathing data from the breathing device associated with a user performing the breathing pattern, and displaying the breathing data in real-time.

Compression Training System
A compression training system comprises an aperture tool, a tube, and a manometer. The tube comprises a first end opening and a second end opening. The aperture tool is releasably attached to the manometer via the tube. The aperture tool comprises a through aperture in communication with the first end opening of the tube. The aperture tool is shaped and sized to be placed between lips of a user. The manometer comprising a pressure inlet. The second end opening of the tube is hermetically attached around the pressure inlet such that the through aperture is in fluid communication with the manometer.
POSITIVE EXPIRATORY PRESSURE DEVICE
A positive exhalation pressure device increases the pressure gradient in the airways, thereby increasing oxygen saturation levels and decreasing the severity of hypoxia. Various embodiments of the device may be inserted into the nasal and/or oral cavities, or configured as mask devices covering the nasal and/or oral cavities. In some embodiments, the resistance of the device may be varied.

BREATH TRAINING SYSTEM
Apparatus and methods for providing breath training. In illustrative embodiments, an operator creates a pressure, either positive or negative, in the lungs. This pressure is transferred through a mask assembly to a breathwork apparatus, which utilizes pistons moving within cylinder volumes to provide numerical feedback to an operator regarding the operator's breathing. Through breath control exercises, the operator of a breathwork apparatus can develop deeper and slower breathing habits which are more efficient. One embodiment provides a breathwork apparatus comprising an exhalation side; a transfer case; an inhalation side; and, a mask assembly, wherein the exhalation side and inhalation side are joined by transfer case which comprises a plurality of channels, such that at least a first channel of a plurality of channels terminates in an exhalation rate meter, and at least a second channel of the plurality of channels terminates in an inhalation rate meter.
