Patent number: 11883189Abstract: The present invention provides a method of conducting a sleep analysis by collecting physiologic and kinetic data from a subject, preferably via a wireless in-home data acquisition system, while the subject attempts to sleep at home. The sleep analysis, including clinical and research sleep studies and cardiorespiratory studies, can be used in the diagnosis of sleeping disorders and other diseases or conditions with sleep signatures, such as Parkinson's, epilepsy, chronic heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, or other neurological, cardiac, pulmonary, or muscular disorders. The method of the present invention can also be used to determine if environmental factors at the subject's home are preventing restorative sleep.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2023Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Cleveland Medical Devices Inc.Inventors: Hani Kayyali, Craig A. Frederick, Christian Martin, Robert N. Schmidt, Brian Kolkowski

Patent number: 11878110Abstract: A device for delivering a compound to the olfactory region of the nasal cavity includes an actuator body and a tip that removably couples to the actuator body. The actuator body comprises a propellant channel in fluid communication with a propellant canister. The tip comprises an exit channel, an inlet interface, one or more grooves, and an outlet orifice. The exit channel extends between a proximal end and a distal end of the tip. The inlet interface is positioned about a distal end of the exit channel, and the inlet interface couples to a compound container containing the compound. The grooves are positioned about the inlet interface and direct propellant from the propellant channel into the compound container, thereby agitating and entraining the compound in the compound container with the released propellant. The compound and the propellant then travel through the exit channel and out the outlet orifice.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2022Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Impel Pharmaceuticals Inc.Inventors: Craig Frederick Kohring, Christopher William Fuller

Patent number: 11878109Abstract: Embodiments relate to a single-use device for delivery of medication into a nasal cavity. In an embodiment, the device includes a propellant canister containing a propellant capable of propelling the compound to the nasal cavity. The propellant canister is displaceable between an unactuated position and an actuated position within the device. The device further includes an actuation element with an actuation lever configured to displace the propellant canister from the unactuated position to the actuated position. The device also includes a puncture element positioned to puncture the propellant canister, which causes the release of the propellant from the propellant canister. The device further includes a dose holding chamber containing a unit dose of the compound. The dose holding chamber is positioned such that propellant flows into the dose holding chamber and causes the compound to be propelled from the dose holding chamber to the nasal cavity of the user.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2020Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Impel Pharmaceuticals Inc.Inventors: John D. Hoekman, Albert Kenneth Lavin, Christopher William Fuller, Craig Frederick Kohring

Patent number: 11877823Abstract: The present invention provides for a data acquisition system for EEG and other physiological conditions, preferably wireless, and method of using such system. The wireless EEG system can be used in a number of applications including both studies and clinical work. These include both clinical and research sleep studies, alertness studies, emergency brain monitoring, and any other tests or studies where a subject's or patient's EEG reading is required or helpful. This system includes a number of features, which enhance this system over other systems presently in the marketplace. These features include but are not limited to the having multiple channels for looking at a number of physiological features of the subject or patient, a built in accelerometer for looking at a subject's or patient's body motion, a removable memory for data buffering and storage, capability of operating below 2.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2023Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: Cleveland Medical Devices IncInventors: Hani Kayyali, Craig A Frederick, Daniel Bishop, Robert N Schmidt, Brian M Kolkowski

Patent number: 11759585Abstract: A nasal drug delivery device for delivering a plume derived from a propellant and a drug compound. The drug compound is in an intranasal dosage form in the form of powder, suspension, dispersion, or liquid. The propelled intranasal dosage form is deposited within the upper nasal cavity such as the olfactory region. The drug deposited within the olfactory region is delivered to the brain avoiding the blood-brain-barrier. Hydrofluoroalkane propellant from a pressurized canister is channeled to a diffuser and drug-containing channel where the intranasal dosage form is aerosolized. The aerosolized intranasal dosage form passes through a nozzle thus delivering a plume to the user's upper nasal cavity.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2019Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: Impel Pharmaceuticals Inc.Inventors: Christopher William Fuller, Craig Frederick Kohring, Albert Kenneth Lavin, John D.

Patent number: 11571532Abstract: A device for delivering a compound to the olfactory region of the nasal cavity includes an actuator body and a tip configured to removably couple to the actuator body. The actuator body comprises a propellant channel in fluid communication with a propellant canister. The tip comprises a tip stem, a dip tube, a delivery channel, one or more puncture members, and an outlet orifice. The tip stem receives a compound container containing the compound and the compound container moves between a sealed state and an unsealed state. The one or more puncture members are each configured to puncture the compound container when the compound container is in the unsealed state. Propellant released from the canister travels through the propellant channel and into the punctured compound container, thereby contacting the compound and propelling the compound through the delivery channel and out the outlet orifice.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2018Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: Impel Pharmaceuticals Inc.Inventors: Craig Frederick Kohring, Christopher William Fuller
