METHOD, APPARATUS AND KIT FOR TREATING CHRONIC AND LONG-TERM NASAL CONGESTION
A method of treating episodic and chronic nasal congestion of the human nasal passages is disclosed. The present invention combines use of decongestant nasal spray, saline nasal spray, and nasal dilator therapies with minimized risk of incurring rebound congestion. The method may be used as both preventative and withdrawal therapies for patients experiencing rebound congestion. Nasal dilators, decongestant nasal spray and saline nasal spray are provided in kit form whereby users may practice the method.
Apparatus, System and Method Comprising a Dispenser with a Modular Cartridge for the Dispensing of Cannabis Extract
The present invention surrounds a dispenser and means for dispensing viscous fluids, such as those associated with cannabis extracted compounds. More particularly, the dispenser of the present invention is a one-handed controlled dispenser device for viscous fluids with a replaceable cartridge to allow a user to selectively install and use different cartridges containing different fluids as desired or as needed.
Device for dispensing a fluid product
A device for dispensing a fluid product having a container (10), a dispensing member (20), a dispensing head (30) with an outlet (31), an actuating member (60) slidably mounted in the dispensing head, and a lateral actuating system cooperating with the actuating member. The actuating member has a cylindrical body (65) and a flexible tab (61) having a radial projection (62), the flexible tab extending axially into the cylindrical body (65) and radially deformable between an undeformed position, in which the projection (62) projects radially out of the cylindrical body, and a deformed position, in which the projection does not. The lateral actuating system has two side levers (35, 36) diametrically opposed, deformable and/or movable laterally, a flexible spacer (37) connecting the two side levers, the flexible spacer cooperating with the projection (62) and axially deformed during actuation to axially move the actuating member relative to the dispensing head.
DEVICE FOR DISPENSING A FLUID PRODUCT
A device for dispensing a fluid product, having a body (1) and a dispensing head (2) with a dispensing orifice (3) and axially movable. The body receives a vessel (10) containing one or two doses of product. The device has an electronic module (100) with a wireless communication module (101), a geographical location module (102), and a power source (103). The device has a sensor system (201, 202) for detecting and automatically signalling an attempt to use the device, the sensor system having a first sensor (201) arranged on the dispensing head (2) and a second sensor (202) on the body, the sensor system detecting handling representative of an attempt to use the device when the first and second sensors (201, 202) are activated simultaneously, the wireless communication module designed to make an automatic emergency call when the sensor system detects handling representative of an attempt to use the device.
METHODS AND DEVICES TO PREVENT PREMATURE BIRTH
Methods and devices to affect types, proportion, quantity, distribution, or proliferation of microorganisms within a female reproductive system.
DELIVERY DEVICES AND METHODS
Implementations of a delivery device and method are disclosed. One implementation is a delivery device comprising a flow chamber with an inlet port for receiving a fluid flow in the flow chamber, and an outlet port for exiting a material from the flow chamber. The flow chamber may include a formation portion in which a suspension of the material is formed, and a collection portion that directs the suspension toward and/or into the outlet port. An amount of the material may collect in the collection portion adjacent the outlet port. The device may further comprise an insertion port for permitting insertion of the material in the flow chamber, and/or a pusher operable to move the amount of material through the outlet port. Related devices and methods also are disclosed.
AEROSOL-GENERATING SYSTEM WITH MOTOR
An aerosol-generating system may include a liquid storage portion configured to hold aerosol-forming substrate, a vaporizer, and a pump. The liquid storage portion includes a movable wall and an outlet. The vaporizer includes a heating element having a structure that at least partially defines an internal passage. The pump may deliver liquid aerosol-forming substrate from the outlet of the liquid storage portion to the internal passage of the heating element. The pump may include a micro stepper motor with a drive shaft that is configured to rotate a particular amount based on performing an individual step, a piston connected to the movable wall, and a lead screw connecting the drive shaft to the piston and configured to translate rotation of the drive shaft into axial movement of the piston and the movable wall. The vaporizer may at least partially vaporize the delivered liquid aerosol-forming substrate.
PACIFIER
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.
DRY POWDER FORMULATIONS OF EPINEPHRINE AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
Provided herein are dry powder formulations comprising epinephrine alone or in combination with at least one enabling agent suitable for nasal application. Also provided are unit dose forms and devices comprising such formulations and methods of using such formulations for the treatment of various conditions including anaphylaxis, anaphylactoid reaction, respiratory conditions, hemodynamic collapse, and for administration during cardiopulmonary arrest and other life-threatening conditions.
DEVICES FOR STORAGE AND DELIVERY OF NONPATHOGENIC MICROORGANISMS
