  • Publication number: 20250228746
    Abstract: A device for administering a fluid to a patient anatomy includes a flexible catheter. The catheter includes a lumen extending therethrough. The catheter is sized and shaped to extend from a proximal end outside a human body to a distal end that can be guided to a target location. A distal portion of the catheter includes one or more exit ports communicating with a first lumen for administering the fluid. A deformable portion of the catheter is formed so that, in a first state, the deformable portion assumes a first shape suitable for guiding the catheter to the target location and, in a second state, the deformable portion assumes a second shape in which the deformable portion curves to extend in at least one radial direction for engaging an inner wall of the target location to anchor the catheter in the target location while administering the fluid.

  • Publication number: 20250228747
    Abstract: A device includes a flexible catheter and at least one wirefrom. The catheter includes a first lumen extending therethrough and is sized and shaped to extend to a target location within a gastrointestinal (GI) system. A first distal portion of the catheter includes one or more exit ports communicating with the first lumen for administering a fluid to the location. The wireform is attached around the catheter or deployable from within the catheter, the wireform being formed so that, in a first state, the wireform assumes a first shape suitable for guiding the catheter to the location and, in a second state, the wireform assumes a second shape in which the wire extends away from the catheter in at least one radial direction for contacting a wall of the location to anchor the catheter in the location while administering the fluid via the first lumen.

  • Patent number: 12318186
    Abstract: Systems and methods have been developed for implementation of a breath testing system for convenient sampling of intestinal gases exhaled from a patient's breath. This may include a system with a manifold that includes thermal regulation components, for instance thermistors and resistive heating elements, which maintain the temperature of the gases above the body temperature of the patient. In some examples, the system will determine an indication of whether a patient has SIBO by adjusting a change in exhaled hydrogen concentration by a methane level exhaled by a patient.

  • Publication number: 20240418528
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing routing involving an indicated point of interest associated with a plurality of levels of a multilevel (overlapping or stacked) roadway are provided. In example embodiments, a networked system aggregates trip data received from user devices that includes location information and detected attributes for points of interest. The networked system analyzes the location information and the detected attributes to determine a height parameter and, in some cases, a characteristic associated with different levels of the multilevel roadway for points of interest. The height parameters and characteristics for each point of interest are stored to a database in a data storage. During runtime, the networked system receives a request that includes a point of interest. In response, the networked system detects a level of roadway at the point of interest using the database and real-time device data. Based on the detected level of the multilevel roadway, a route is generated and presented.

  • Patent number: 11720755
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating sets of candidates comprising images and places within a threshold geographic proximity based on geographic information associated with each of the plurality of images and geographic information associated with each place. For each set of candidates, the systems and methods generate a similarity score based on a similarity between text extracted from each image and a place name, and the geographic information associated with each image and each place. For each place with an associated image as a potential match, the systems and methods generate a name similarity score based on matching the extracted text of the image to the place name, and store an image as place data associated with a place based on determining that the name similarity score for the extracted text associated with the image is higher than a second predetermined threshold.
