Patent number: 9855222Abstract: Topical sanitizers including alcohol-based gels, alcohol-based foams, alcohol-free foams, liquid soaps, alcohol-based wipes, and alcohol-based sprays include avenanthramides, which is an active component of oats that is beneficial to the skin. The concentration of avenanthramides can be substantially less when considering the use profile of the person using the sanitizers. Many healthcare workers sanitize their hands dozens of times a day. An effective dose of avenanthramides can be delivered to the skin even when the concentration in avenanthramides is relatively low due to the repeated application of the sanitizers during the day. In addition, a lower concentration of avenanthramides may be used to maintain healthy skin compared to a higher concentration that may be used to repair damaged skin. Minimum concentrations of avenanthramides in one or more topical sanitizers can be determined according to the use profile and the target amount of avenanthramides to deliver via the topical sanitizers.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2015Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: The Idea Folder LLCInventors: Mark James Redmond, Joseph H.

Publication number: 20170135830Abstract: An implantable biocompatible expander suitable for implantation into a urinary duct, comprises an elongated sinusoidal ring comprising at least two proximal prongs and at least two distal prongs, wherein the expander is resiliently deformable from a relaxed radially expanded orientation to a radially contracted orientation suitable for transluminal delivery through the urinary duct. The expander is configured to exert an outward radial force against a wall of the urinary duct when in-situ within the urinary duct. In particular, the expander is suitable for treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia and configured for implantation into the prostatic urethra between, and substantially spanning the prostatic urethra between, the bladder neck and external sphincter.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 14, 2016Publication date: May 18, 2017Inventors: Conor Harkin, Ryan Garrett, Bruce Murphy, James Redmond, Michael Burke, Riona Ni Ghriallais

Publication number: 20160279361Abstract: A controller or processor(s) implements detection of respiratory related conditions, such as asynchrony, associated with use of a respiratory treatment apparatus or ventilator. Based on data derived from sensor signals associated with the respiratory treatment, the detector may evaluate a feature set of detection values to determine whether or not an asynchrony occurs in a breath of the patient's respiratory cycle such as by comparing the values against a set of thresholds. Different events may also be identified based on the particular feature set and threshold(s) involved in the detection processing. Automated determination of feature sets may also be implemented to design different asynchrony event classifiers. The methodologies may be implemented by computers or by respiratory treatment apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2016Publication date: September 29, 2016Inventors: Qestra Camille Mulqueeny, Stephen James Redmond, Nigel Hamilton Lovell

Publication number: 20150164375Abstract: Disclosed is a cardio-pulmonary health monitoring apparatus. The apparatus comprises a contactless motion sensor configured to generate one or more movement signals representing bodily movement of a patient during a monitoring session; a processor; and a memory storing program instructions configured to cause the processor to carry out a method of processing the one or more movement signals. The method comprises extracting one or more sleep disordered breathing features from the one or more movement signals, and predicting whether a clinical event is likely to occur during a predetermined prediction horizon based on the one or more sleep disordered breathing features.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 30, 2013Publication date: June 18, 2015Applicants: ResMed Sensor Technologies Limited, ResMed LimitedInventors: Klaus Henry Schindhelm, Steven Paul Farrugia, Michael Waclaw Colefax, Faizan Javed, Rami Khushaba, Conor Heneghan, Philip De Chazal, Alberto Zaffaroni, Niall Fox, Patrick Celka, Emer O' Hare, Stephen James Redmond

Patent number: 8871233Abstract: Topical sanitizer includes avenanthramides, which is an active component of oats that is beneficial to the skin. The topical sanitizer is used preferably in conjunction with gloves that have an inner coating that includes avenanthramides. By using topical sanitizer that includes avenanthramides before and after wearing gloves, the skin of the person wearing the glove is more exposed to the beneficial avenanthramides all during the workday, not just when wearing gloves. The result is healthier, much softer and more comfortable skin on the hands.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2013Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: The Idea Folder LLCInventors: Mark James Redmond, Joseph H.

Publication number: 20100270173Abstract: A method for sanitization of water in a swimming pool or the like comprises the steps of forming, in the pool water, an electrolyte solution containing from 1500 ppm to 9000 ppm of a soluble magnesium halide salt, treating the electrolyte solution in an electrolytic halogenation cell to form an aqueous solution of hypohalous acid and then returning the water so treated back to a swimming pool. A mixture of magnesium and potassium chlorides with small quantities of soluble alkaline earth metal bromide is particularly effective in the sanitization process.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2007Publication date: October 28, 2010Applicant: POOLRITE RESEARCH PTY LTDInventors: Stuart Bruce Anderson, Colin John Holloway, Ross Leslie Palmer, Colin James Redmond

Patent number: 6884230Abstract: The invention provides a handheld, manually operable fluid applicator, particularly suited to the needs of surgeons, for dispensing a multi-component fluid applicator, for example fibrin and thrombin components of a tissue adhesive. A preferred applicator has a body containing reservoirs for the sealants and a detachable dispensing head which can be removed to refill the reservoirs. In the mixing head, the sealant components undergo turbulent mixing, for mixing efficacy, in a mixing chamber provided in a one-piece flexible and resilient manifold have “self-sealing” inlet and outlet ports. To enhance mixing, the mixing chamber has an increased cross-sectional area over the combined areas of the component supply passages and the fluid flows are directly opposed to impinge on each other in the mixing chamber. The applicator body and mixing head each have a housing with an ergonomic, streamlined or otherwise smoothly contoured shape and esthetic appearance.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2000Date of Patent: April 26, 2005Assignee: Baxter International Inc.Inventors: Gordon H.
