Patent number: 11452823Abstract: A breath-enhanced jet nebulizer is configured with a low liquid retention reservoir and a narrow liquid delivery passage to efficiently and efficiently aerosolize small drug volumes with minimal waste. Aerosol particles are directed through aerosol passage for delivery, although larger liquid particles are directed away from the aerosol outlet and recycled to the liquid reservoir.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2017Date of Patent: September 27, 2022Assignees: INSPIRX, INC., THE RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOR THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORKInventors: Rohinton D. Toddywala, Vijay Shukla, Gerald C. Smaldone

Patent number: 11266795Abstract: A breath actuated nebulizer for administration of an inhaled medication to a patient is provided with a generally cylindrical body in a horizontal orientation to the patient. Within the body is a Venturi configured to nebulizer a liquid medication in a reservoir. Within the body is a shaft integrated with a baffle and diaphragm that slides horizontally in response to the breathing of a patient. During inhalation by the patient, the diaphragm flexes shifting the baffle over the Venturi, allowing nebulization to occur. When the patient exhales, the diaphragm flexes to a default position in which the baffle is distal to the Venturi, thereby stopping the nebulization. The diaphragm is biased to rest in this default position until the patient inhales again.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2019Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: INSPIRX, INC.Inventors: Paresh Vasandani, Vijay Shukla, K. Mosaddeq Hossain, Rohinton D. Toddywala
