摘要:
A medical appliance for the treatment of one or more sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea in a patient, the appliance comprising: a biasing member for inserting behind and exerting a force upon the patient's soft palate or tongue, wherein the biasing member is inserted in a reduced or minimized form and then expanded or firms once in place to exert the force. The appliance may be nasally inserted or be placed through the mouth. In a particular configuration, both the soft palate and tongue are biased to prevent obstruction of the flow of air in the nasopharyngeal airway.

摘要:
A composition which comprises a biologically active agent and a polymer that exhibits a reverse thermal gelation at a physiological temperature, in a carrier, and in which the active agent is in an undissolved form is disclosed herein. Further disclosed herein are methods utilizing the compositions for treating subjects, including non-human subjects, as well as kits for preparing and using a composition. The composition is preferably a sustained release formulation, and is particularly useful for treating animals, where single-dose treatment is desired.
摘要:
Provided are methods, systems and apparatuses for producing delivery devices, for example, for oral intake of an agent. The method can include assembling one or more layers including one or more materials with an agent or an agent-releasing formulation to form an intergraded device; folding the intergrated delivery device to form a folded integrated delivery device; and at least partially enclosing the folded delivery device to a form suitable for oral delivery.
