A pacifier comprising a suction part and a housing part, wherein said suction part comprises a nipple and a shield connected to each other, wherein said suction part comprises a passageway through which a fluid can pass from outside a mouth of a user of the pacifier to inside the mouth of the user of the pacifier, and wherein said housing part comprises a housing, wherein said housing is prefilled with a drug which can pass through the passageway into the mouth of the user when the housing part is connected to said suction part and wherein said drug is a drug to be inhaled through the passageway of the suction part.

A combined infant feeding and pacifier retention device is an apparatus used to retain and distribute breastmilk or other fluids. The apparatus is also configured to store a pacifier for selective use. The apparatus comprises a liquid retention chamber, a pacifier retaining mechanism, and a feeding spout. The liquid retention chamber is a contained volume that enables transportation of inserted liquids, particularly milk or breastmilk. The pacifier retaining mechanism is a unit that enables storage of any of a variety of pacifiers. The feeding spout is a unidirectional valve that enables fluid transfer from the liquid retention chamber. The feeding spout is preferably made of any of a variety of soft, bisphenol A-free (BPA-free) materials that effectively operates when utilized as a mouthpiece for an infant. The general configuration of the aforementioned components allows the apparatus to efficiently and effectively store and distribute fluids to users.

A retractable clip that includes a clip portion for releasably attaching a pacifier to the clip portion, and a plurality of flexible arms extending from the clip portion, with the flexible arms being configured to non-releasably attach to a toy, wherein each of the plurality of flexible arms is configured to retain the clip portion in a retracted position relative to the toy and is further configured to flex so as to extend the clip portion relative to the toy upon application of a force.

Infant training devices and methods for the use thereof are disclosed herein. A benefit to the devices and methods herein can be the effective training of an infant to develop the suck-swallow-breathe pattern of nutritive and non-nutritive sucking required for feeding from an infant bottle, or for self-soothing with a pacifier. A further benefit to the devices and methods herein can be providing versatile devices for the use of vibration therapy as an infant training aid for feeding from an infant feeding bottle, or as an infant soothing pacifier.

An adaptive audio therapy system which detects and processes one or more individuals' conditions to provide adaptive, continuous audio therapy in real-time. The adaptive audio therapy system generally includes a detection device that is typically in physical contact with an individual, such as a pacifier or steering wheel. The detection device may include sensors to detect various conditions of the individual, such as heart rate, respiration rate, temperature, and the like. A computing device receives and processes the various conditions detected by the sensors. Based on the detected conditions, the computing device provides audio therapy which is adaptive to the condition of the patient and which is continuously adapted in real-time.

The present invention relates to an improved pacifier to provide a pre-measured medication or supplement to an infant without requiring teaspoons, medical cups, and more. The improved pacifier features a substantially transparent nipple which is prefilled, or selectively filled, with a liquid medication or supplement that allows an infant to suck the nipple to dispense the medication or supplement in their mouth. The nipple is releasably attached to a shield device through a central opening of the shield. The shield also inhibits the pacifier from falling out of the mouth and dropping on the ground. The nipples are color coded in different colors for indicating different medications. Pre-measured dosage marks are indicated on the nipple for indicating the quantity of the medication stored in the nipple.

An automatic pushing type complementary food device comprising a clamping body, an elastic member and a colander, wherein the inner side of the clamping body is connected to one end of an elastic member in a clamped manner, the outer side of the clamping body is connected to the colander in a clamped manner, the other end of the elastic member extends into the colander, a complementary food cavity is provided in the colander, and overflow holes are provided in the outer wall of the colander. The automatic pushing type complementary food device is simple in structure, convenient to operate, capable of automatically pushing and collecting complementary food when a baby uses the device, free of auxiliary operation by a mother, capable of bringing convenience to the mother during feeding, and capable of achieving automatic collection of the complementary food without a complex pushing structure.

A feeding assistance device and method for making same is disclosed. The feeding assistance device comprises a band and an amusement device secured to the band. The band comprises an external portion, an internal portion, and a securing platform. The amusement device comprises an upper end, a lower end, and a lowermost part located on the lower end of the amusement device. The band secures the feeding assistance device to a feeding device, such as a bottle, sippy cup, variation thereof, or combination thereof. The amusement device can be a plush toy, head of an animal, or other toy.

Disclosed is an IoT enabled, portable, multiple stimuli reinforced non-nutritive Sucking Training System, Method and Device that implements a function that measures suction pressure of a non-nutritive sucking event produced by a pre-mature infant; then converts the measured pressure value using transducer to digital form; then transmits the pressure value in digital form using IoT (Internet-of-Things) controller to a server and/or to an app and/or a software installed on a smartphone device. The app and/or software installed on the smartphone device which receives the pressure measurement uses an algorithm to produce a stimulus such as music and/or haptic feedback for the pre-mature infant, to train the premature infant to suck optimally; thereby improving self-feeding capability of the premature infant.
