Abstract: An apparatus for removing CO from blood, the apparatus including: a housing configured to house blood obtained from a body of a subject within an interior of the housing; a plurality of gas-permeable tubules disposed within the interior of the housing; an optical intrusion coupled to the housing and configured to project into the housing, the optical intrusion configured to transmit light into the interior of the housing; and a light source optically coupled to the optical intrusion, the light source being configured to emit light which is coupled via the optical intrusion into the interior of the housing such that the emitted light interacts with the blood from the body of the subject.

Abstract: Systems and methods for producing nitric oxide (NO) to be used in medical applications are provided. In some embodiments, systems and methods are provided for a NO generator that is capable of generating a desired concentration of NO to be provided to a respiratory system for inhalation by a patient.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and method for electric plasma synthesis of nitric oxide. In particular, the present disclosure provides a nitric oxide (NO) generation system configured to produce a controllable output of therapeutic NO gas at the point of care.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a nitric oxide (NO) generation system are provided. In particular, the present disclosure provide an NO generation system that is configured to be cooled to maintain an NO generator of the system at or below temperatures safe for patient use and contact. In some non-limiting examples, the NO generation system may include a pump configured to furnish a fluid (e.g., a gas) toward and/or through the NO generator to provide cooling thereto.

Abstract: A negative pressure ventilation system comprising a dynamically movable, multi-component artificial rib cage configured to fit snugly around the patient's own chest wall and abdomen is disclosed. The shape, dimensions and the dynamic movement of the artificial rib cage are designed to mimic those of the patient's own chest wall. The artificial rib cage includes an artificial spine to which are connected artificial ribs for forming an artificial chest wall including a sternum component. An abdominal component for placement on the patient's abdomen is connected to the chest wall component through a translating element which allows the abdominal component to move towards and away from the chest wall component. The chest wall and abdominal components cooperatively interact to allow the ventilator to move both the chest wall and abdomen during inspiration and expiration, mimicking the patient's own natural breathing pattern.

Abstract: Methods for enhancing the therapeutic or prophylactic effectiveness of an inhaled therapeutic gas are disclosed. The methods include administering to a mammal by inhalation a therapeutically effective amount of gaseous nitric oxide or carbon monoxide, and administering to the mammal a composition containing a compound that sensitizes soluble guanylate cyclase.
