Publication number: 20230014248Abstract: Modular ventilatory support systems and methods are disclosed in which a user may transition the system between a stationary configuration, an extended range configuration, and a stand-alone configuration. The modular components of the system include a compressor unit, a ventilator which may dock with the compressor unit, and a patient interface which may be connected to either the compressor unit or the ventilator unit. By rearranging these modular components into different configurations, mobility and duration of use may be optimized to fit the present needs. In the stationary configuration, mobility is most restricted, but duration of use is maximized. In the extended range configuration, mobility is enhanced, with duration of use limited by the battery power of the ventilator. In the stand-alone configuration, mobility is maximized, with duration of use limited by battery power of the ventilator and the quantity of an external gas supply.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2022Publication date: January 19, 2023Inventors: Samir S. Ahmad, Enrico Brambilla, Ali Nikkhah, Lawrence A. Mastrovich, Gary Berman, Masoud Vahidi

Publication number: 20210220210Abstract: An apparatus to treat, inhibit, or prevent an indication of a headache symptom in a patient can include a cover, sized and shaped to fit over an eye of the patient to define a cavity between the cover and an anterior surface of the eye when the cover is located over the patient eye. The apparatus can include a pressure source, in communication with the cavity, capable of applying non-ambient cavity pressure to the cavity. The apparatus can include control circuitry, in communication with the pressure source, the control circuitry storing or otherwise configured to define a target cavity pressure value specified to treat, inhibit, or prevent the headache symptom, and configured to control the pressure source to adjust the cavity pressure toward the target cavity pressure value to treat, inhibit, or prevent the headache symptom.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2021Publication date: July 22, 2021Inventors: John Berdahl, Paul Byoungjae Yoo, Matthew Donald Larson, Gary Berman, George Tsai

Publication number: 20200405986Abstract: A patient circuit of a ventilation system, such as a non-invasive open ventilation system, wherein the patient circuit comprises a nasal pillows style patient interface that incorporates at least one “Venturi effect” jet pump proximal to the patient. The patient circuit further comprises a pair of uniquely configured 3-way connectors which, in cooperation with several uniquely configured tri-lumen tubing segments, facilitate the cooperative engagement of the patient interface to a ventilator of the ventilation system.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2020Publication date: December 31, 2020Inventors: Enrico Brambilla, Samir Ahmad, Lawrence Mastrovich, Gary Berman, David Mastrovich

Publication number: 20200386250Abstract: A method and system are provided for securing non-fixed structures against movement relative to fixed structures, and in particular to a method and system for securing mini-fridges within cabinets. The method and system employ a stabilizer comprising a pair of foot assemblies, wherein at least one of the foot assemblies is extendable in relation to the other one of the foot assemblies, each of the foot assemblies comprising a foot. The stabilizer is positionable in a gap defined by an exterior surface of the mini-fridge and an interior surface of the cabinet. The stabilizer is extended until one foot is in contact with the exterior surface of the mini-fridge and the other foot is in contact with the interior surface of the cabinet, such that the stabilizer is snugly fit in the gap to prevent relative movement between the mini-fridge and the cabinet.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2019Publication date: December 10, 2020Inventor: Gary BERMAN
