    Abstract: The present invention provides a device with a pressure control system and methods for controlling the application of negative pressure to an external surface of an individual for creating and/or maintaining patency of the upper airway passage. The device is configured to fit under the chin of a subject at an external location corresponding approximately with the subject's internal soft tissue associated with the neck's anterior triangle. The pressure control system contains control module elements that may include circuit board elements, digital output barometer elements, sensor elements, processing elements and memory elements to optimize device function and safety of the device through regulation of the flow rate of the air pump.

    Abstract: A device and a method for creating and/or maintaining an obstruction free upper respiratory passages. The device is configured to fit under the chin of a subject adjacent to the subject's neck at an external location corresponding approximately with the subject's internal soft tissue associated with the neck's anterior triangle. The device is capable of exerting negative pressure on the surface of a subject's neck, displacing the soft tissue forward and enlarging the airway.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to medical vacuum pump filtration devices configured to filter air being received by the pump. The filtration devices comprise a pump housing and a mounting cap which incorporates filtration capabilities that capture and or divert particulate matter and moisture away from a pump intake opening. The filtration cap can also include apertures for sensors contained within the vacuum pump housing and the filtration cap. Compliance features that ensure proper installation and use of the filtration device can be included.

    Abstract: A device and method for creating and/or maintain an obstruction free upper airway passage. The device configured to fit under the chin of a subject adjacent to the subject's at an external location corresponding approximately with the subject's internal soft tissue associated with the neck's anterior triangle. The device including structural elements designed to optimize comfort, compliance and seal achieved through minimizing the pressure variation along the contact surface of the cushion element. The structural elements of the cushion may include a fluidly sealed chamber that may vary in thickness and width, a compressible elastic foam contained within the fluidly sealed chamber a ribbon layer backing the elastic foam contained within the fluidly sealed chamber and an adhesive layer disposed on the outer surface of the fluidly sealed chamber of the therapy device designed to contact the skin of the subject.
