摘要:
A mask (100) includes a mask body (101). The mask body (101) defines an inner surface (602) and an outer surface (102). The inner surface can define a concave chamber (801) suitable for placement over a patient's nose, mouth, or combination thereof. The outer surface (102) can define a first tang (104) protruding from the outer surface of the mask body, where the first tang defines a first concave finger receiving surface (304). Similarly, the second tang (105) can protrude from the outer surface of the mask body, where the second tang defines a second concave finger receiving surface (305).
摘要:
A portable handheld pressure support system (10) is configured to provide pressure support therapy to a subject. The pressure support system provides a pressurized flow of breathable gas that is delivered to the airway of the subject to treat COPD and/or dyspnea, hyperinflation, and/or other conditions. The system is configured to adjust an expiratory pressure level of the pressure support therapy responsive to identification of hyperinflation in the subject. The pressure support therapy provided to the subject is configured to be used as needed to rapidly alleviate shortness of breath, hyperinflation, and/or other symptoms. The pressure support system is configured to be small and lightweight so that the subject may carry the system and use the system as needed.

A hand-held pump apparatus (1) comprises a peristaltic pump head (2) and a container (20) for a liquid to be dispensed. The pump head (2) has a rotatable peristaltic pump member (6) and a flexible dispensing tube (4) in fluid connection with the inside of the container. A finger-actuated trigger (12) is arranged to drive the peristaltic pump member (6) when actuated so as to cause the peristaltic pump member to turn and pump fluid through the dispensing tube(4). The pump head (2) has a thumb hole (8) disposed through it, the thumb hole being disposed within an area around which the peristaltic pump member turns when actuated.
摘要:
A compact continuous positive airway pressure apparatus and method provide a flatter profile and more compact thickness, including a larger lateral dimension in order to be accommodated in conventional luggage designed to stow laptop computers having a smaller aspect ratio of thickness to length or thickness to width. Air tubing may be coiled within a case or coiled as about a spool-like configuration in the base unit of the device.
摘要:
The present disclosure pertains to a portable handheld pressure support system configured to deliver a blending gas enriched pressurized flow of breathable gas to the airway of a subject. The pressure support system is configured to treat patients suffering from dyspnea and/or other conditions. The therapy provided to dyspnea patients is configured to be used as needed by a subject to rapidly alleviate shortness of breath. The pressure support system is configured to be small and lightweight so that the subject may carry the system and use the system as needed without requiring a device to be worn on the face. In some embodiments, the system comprises one or more of a pressure generator, a subject interface, a blending gas inlet port, one or more sensors, a valve, one or more processors, a user interface, electronic storage, a portable power source, a housing, a handle, and/or other components.
摘要:
An ambulatory infusion device includes a common module having a pump mechanism and a fluid flow path in communication with the pump mechanism. The device also includes a custom module operably coupleable to the common module. The custom module includes a reservoir for housing a liquid composition comprising a medicament and control electronics. The reservoir is configured to fluidly couple with the fluid flow path, and the control electronics are configured to electrically couple to the pump mechanism when the common module and the custom module are operably coupled. When the common module and the custom module are operably coupled, the pump mechanism is configured to drive the liquid composition from the reservoir to a patient via the fluid flow path, and the control electronics are configured to control the rate at which the pump mechanism drives the liquid composition.
摘要:
A system comprising an opening aid for opening an inhaler and an inhaler, the opening aid comprising at least one opening member, wherein the inhaler comprises a first and a second exterior part which are connected to one another, wherein the exterior parts are separable by a movement including a relative rotational movement to prepare the inhaler for a dispensing operation, wherein the opening member is configured to be connected to one of the exterior parts in a torque-proof fashion, and wherein the first exterior part is a body comprising a dispensing opening through which a dose of drug can be dispensed from the body and the second exterior part is a cap which is releasably connectable to the body and, when connected to the body, covers the dispensing opening.
摘要:
A retractable syringe is proposed having a cutting head mounted on a plunger of the syringe. When the plunger is advanced to expel fluid from the syringe, the cutting crown cuts a retention mechanism which holds a needle unit of the syringe, allowing a drive mechanism to drive the needle unit into the syringe. The cutting crown is shaped to reduce the force which has to be applied to cut the retention mechanism. Furthermore, a disposable needle assembly for attachment to a syringe unit is proposed. The disposable needle assembly has a needle and connector element for connecting the needle to the syringe unit. The connector element encircles the needle and has a thread on its outer surface for mating with the syringe unit.
摘要:
An automatic injector dispenses a predetermined dose of medicament without a user having to manually force the needle into an injection site. The automatic injector includes a needle cover having a locked retracted position with respect to the injector housing prior to a medicament dispensing operation. The needle cover is operative to engage an injection site prior to a medicament dispensing operation.
