Patent number: 11426110Abstract: An envelope is comprised of two sheets of material that are placed one on top of each other with their interior sides facing each other with their edges sealed to each other with an adhesive to form an airtight enclosure. The envelope has at least one medical patch inside it that is attached to the interior side of at least one of the sheets and a layer of medical grade pressure sensitive adhesive surrounding the at least one medical patch. The pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to a part of the surface of the interior side of the sheet in order to attach the sheet of material and the at least one medical patch to the body of a patient. The medical patch can be an electrode for measuring a patient's vital signs or delivering an electric shock or a transdermal patch for delivering a drug to a patient.Type: GrantFiled: February 14, 2017Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: INOVYTEC MEDICAL SOLUTIONS LTD.Inventors: Ehud Kantor, Nir Barkai

Publication number: 20220265943Abstract: A ventilator system for providing respiratory support in cases of acute respiratory failure or severe trauma is described. The ventilator system comprises a ventilator and a tubing system. The system is characterized in that the ventilator comprises a continuous bleed valve configured to be open to air flow from the blower at all times when the blower is operating during both inspiration and expiration; thereby providing a minimal amount of pressure within a patient's lungs at the end of each exhalation—positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP). In an embodiment of the invention the system comprises a manifold block configured to hold the main operating elements of ventilator.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Inventors: Mark SHAHAR, Nir BARKAI

Patent number: 10292735Abstract: An implantable orthopedic device. The device includes: a proximal anchor, configured to be implanted inside a first metatarsal; the anchor having a collar larger than the opening in a metatarsal in which the proximal anchor is implanted; the collar preventing cable to bone contact; a distal anchor, configured to be implanted inside a second metatarsal, adjacent to the first metatarsal; the distal anchor having a male thread, a nut threadable onto the male thread of the distal anchor, and a cord mechanically interconnecting the proximal and distal anchors. A shock absorber includes an elongate housing threadedly positioned within the anchor; the shock absorber accommodates a cord holder mechanically connected to the housing via a damping member, the cord holder is freely rotatable within the housing to prevent the cord from twist kinking when the housing is rotated to adjust a tension force.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2016Date of Patent: May 21, 2019Assignee: BONFIX LTDInventors: Dror Robinson, Mark Shahar, Nir Barkai, Lew Schon

Patent number: 10245437Abstract: A system that includes both an Airway and Ventilation device (AV) and an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) device is described. The system allows minimally trained persons to operate it in emergency situations involving respiratory failure and/or cardiac arrhythmias. An integral part of the AV of the system is a face mask manufactured in two parts: a face attachment unit configured to attach to the patient's face and a mask body that is releasably connected to the face attachment unit by a quick release mechanism allowing quick removal of the mask body from the face attachment unit, leaving only the face attachment unit attached to the patients' face, in order to address urgencies such as vomiting. After vomiting ceases and is cleared, then the mask body may be reattached to continue ventilation.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2013Date of Patent: April 2, 2019Assignee: INOVYTEC MEDICAL SOLUTIONS LTD.Inventors: Ehud Kantor, Mark Shahar, Nir Barkai
