Abstract: 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.

Abstract: An adjustable airway securement device that protects and enables placement, and positional stability of airway devices or endotracheal tube apparatus (ETT) of different lengths and diameters adapted to fit the airways of patients having oral and tracheal anatomical structures and facial geometries of various sizes. An internal force-exerting member, such as a flexible beam member operatively connected to an Interlock, collar, or a bonding material, or a surface texturing structure is urged into securing engagement with a sidewall of an airway device in response to rotational closure of a securing apparatus or a clamshell-type clamping member. The clamping member is configured to interact in clamping engagement with the continuous sidewall of the airway device via the Interlock device adjustably positioned in the stabilization system to prevent clinically significant movement of the distal end of the airway device with respect to the vocal cords of the patient.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments of an endotracheal tube (ETT) guard system help to hinder self-extubation of the ETT of an awake patient who may reflexively attempt removal, but also allow early mobilization and exercise necessary for preservation of muscle strength. Embodiments may include an ETT holder, which may be generic ETT holders offered by various medical device companies, or a specially configured ETT holder as described herein. Embodiments also may include a sensor that alarms when the ETT guard is moved beyond pre-set motion thresholds.

Abstract: An endotracheal tube is provided having flexible tubing of a predetermined inner diameter and a predetermined length adapted for endotracheal intubation via a mouth or nasal passage of a patient and a separate curve stabilizer to which the flexible tubing may be attached and through which the flexible tubing extends. The curve stabilizer includes walls forming a hollow elbow which has distal and proximal ends and a curved section therebetween and being sufficiently rigid to retain a portion of the flexible tubing in a curved shape forming an anti-kink bend at any selected location along the predetermined length of the flexible tubing. A curve stabilizing device and a method of endotracheal intubation are also disclosed.
