  • Patent number: 9579476
    Abstract: An introducer 40 for guiding an endotracheal tube into a patient's trachea and method for use is provided. The introducer used independently of the endotracheal tube is a malleable elongated tubular body 42 having a proximal end 44 and a distal end 46 and includes an extendible malleable guide member 50 disposed in the bore 48 of the tubular body. Ports 52 are provided in the wall of the tubular body at a point where an operator will normally support the introducer 40 during intubation for contact of the guide member 50 with a finger or fingers of the hand supporting the introducer so that the guide member 50 can be extended without the operator changing the position of the supporting hand while leaving the other hand free for use of a viewing device.

  • Patent number: 8844513
    Abstract: A device, system and method for heating fluid (air) in a flue to create a draw prior to combusting a fuel in a combustion device. The device, system and method includes a housing that may be integrated about the flue. The housing may include a heat exchanger that itself may include a heating source that may be in thermal communication with the flue and a temperature differentiation driver. The heat exchanger may operate to transfer heat energy from the heating source to a fluid constrained to a path created by the flue. The result is a pressure differential created within the flue to help draw the fluid out of the combustion device. The heat exchanger may be configured such that it may cause heat transfer to the heavier, more dense fluid contained within the ventilation system prior to combusting fuel in a combustion device, thereby causing the fluid to be relatively less dense thus creating a draw.
