Abstract: An example method for medication intake analysis and reporting. The method includes obtaining a medication order including identification of a medication and a property associated with the medication, where the medication order is associated with a patient. The method includes obtaining a value representing a characteristic of a physical state of the patient, where the value is measured by a sensor in contact with the patient. The method includes determining whether the patient has taken the medication associated with the medication order based on a comparison of the value representing a characteristic of the physical state of the patient. The method includes reporting whether the patient has taken the medication associated with the medication order via a user interface.

Abstract: An example method for patient prescription management. The method includes obtaining a plurality of prescriptions associated with a patient, wherein each prescription contains an order for a prescribed medication. The method includes compiling the plurality of prescriptions into a single prescription order. The method includes identifying a pharmacy that carries the prescribed medications of the single prescription order based on a location of the patient. The method includes submitting the single prescription order to the identified pharmacy to facilitate a single delivery or a single pickup of the medications.

Abstract: Methods of sizing a nasal airway by using certain measurements of digits.

Abstract: A nasal breathing assist device includes a pair of open-ended tubular elements each extending along a central tube axis between a relatively large first end and a relatively small second end, a coupler element extending between the first ends of the tubular elements, and at least one non-resilient tab extends from the first end toward the second end of the tubular element. The tab includes at least one relatively small protrusion extending from a distal end of the tab toward the tubular element. The device may further includes a filer having a peripheral frame contoured to be snap-fitted in an open-faced channel defined within the tubular element. The device may further includes a removable medication carrier which is adapted to bear a therapeutic agent and adapted to insert into the open-faced channel of the tubular element. The tubular element may define at least one channels on an inner surface of the tubular element to receive edges of the medication carrier.

Abstract: A nasal insert may include a wall in the shape of a tube, the wall including a first end defining a first orifice and a second end defining a second orifice. The first end may have a diameter, diagonal measurement, or cross-sectional area larger than that of the second end. The first end may define at least one break in the wall, so that the first end incompletely encircles the first orifice. The second end may completely encircle the second orifice.

Abstract: A nasal breathing assist device includes one or two open-ended tubular elements each extending along a central tube axis between a relatively large first end and a relatively small second end, and at least one non-resilient tab extends from the first end toward the second end of the tubular element. In embodiments with two tubular elements, a coupler element extends between the first ends of the tubular elements. Each tubular element may further include a liner-shaped filter having a liner portion extending along a central axis between a relatively large end and a relatively small end, and a filter medium spanning at least one of the relatively large end and the relatively small end. The filter is adapted to snap-fit in the tubular element. The tubular element may further include at least one stiffening element affixed to the tubular element.
