An oxygen production unit is provided. The oxygen production unit, in various embodiments, includes a separation unit configured to separate oxygen from nitrogen in received gaseous particles; a control unit configured to control an amount of the separated oxygen to be released to a user of the oxygen production unit, and a nitrogen release unit configured to facilitate release of the separated nitrogen within oxygen production unit and/or into an environment where the oxygen production unit is located. The oxygen production unit in those embodiments can automatically determine an amount of oxygen to be produced and/or delivered to a user; a control and facilitate release of nitrogen into the environment to enhance safety; to facilitate swapping of nitrogen piece(s) in the oxygen production unit to prolong a lifetime of the oxygen production unit, and/or achieve any other benefits.

A method of displaying an operational parameter of a surgical system is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a cloud computing system of the surgical system, first usage data, from a first subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; receiving, by the cloud computing system, second usage data, from a second subset of surgical hubs of the surgical system; analyzing, by the cloud computing system, the first and the second usage data to correlate the first and the second usage data with surgical outcome data; determining, by the cloud computing system, based on the correlation, a recommended medical resource usage configuration; and displaying, on respective displays on the first and the second subset of surgical hubs, indications of the recommended medical resource usage configuration.

Apparatus is disclosed for ventilation using an airbag, which may also be operable manually. The apparatus comprises: means providing or penetrable to form an aperture in the airbag; retractable means provided separately from the airbag, for extending in the airbag; fixing means for fixing, by an operator, an end of the retractable means to the airbag via the aperture; actuation means, for repeatedly retracting the retractable means at least partially through the aperture in the airbag to collapse the airbag, and for enabling expansion of the airbag to an expanded state; and connecting means for connecting the actuation means to the airbag and for preventing environment egress of gas from within the airbag between the aperture and the actuation means.

System for assisting a patient in speaking, comprising at least one ventilation apparatus and a patient interface, the ventilation apparatus comprising at least one controllable respiratory gas source and being designed to identify two or more respiratory phases, at least inspiration and expiration, of the patient, and the patient interface having at least one speaking tube and a respiratory tube and being configured to conduct speaking gas to the patient via the speaking tube and to conduct respiratory gas to and/or from the patient via the respiratory tube. The system is configured to provide speaking gas to the patient at least temporarily in a speaking mode in order to enable speaking.

The disclosure provides methods that facilitate disease management by providing for early detection of metabolic changes that differentiate critically ill-COVID-19 patients under mechanical ventilation at the intensive care unit (ICU) who are likely to exhibit faster recovery.

Systems and methods are provided to combine multiple stimulation modalities to significantly increase the effectiveness of non-invasive stimulation. Multiple sensor and stimulation devices and modalities can be combined into a single, compact unit that minimizes the need for additional sensors or stimulation devices. The system features several subunits, referred to as sensory and stimulation devices (SSD), that are integrated into a headphone setup. The system is controlled by a centralized controller that communicates with all of the SSDs and with an external computer system that delivers learning material synchronized with the delivery of stimulations and the collection of user responses based on physiological signals.

Systems and methods are provided for identifying a therapeutic VR activity or exercise for a subject/patient based on the subject's impairments, dynamically adjusting a VR activity for a patient, and identifying potential impairments based on a patient's performance in a VR activity. Patients may each have various physical, neurological, cognitive, and/or sensory impairments to be treated. Not all therapeutic activities may be appropriate for some patients and their impairments. A VR therapeutic activity platform may increase patient engagement and challenge patients at more appropriate times by better matching activities corresponding to a patient's impairments and dynamically adjusting each VR activity based on performance to offer a challenging and rewarding therapeutic experience.
