  • Patent number: 7806695
    Abstract: Alertness level is predicted on computers or sliding charts by relationship of sleep drives and wake drives, which are separately moved relative to destination time and time zone differential. Wake drives are moved with home time. Sleep drive is moved with bedtime and sleep debt relative to times and a sleep debt scale, respectively. Resulting displays predict alertness, drowsiness, wake drives in relation to sleep drives, best bedtime, sleep debt and illumination recommendations.

  • Patent number: 7361021
    Abstract: Alertness level is predicted on computers or sliding charts by relationship of sleep drives and wake drives, which are separately moved relative to destination time and time zone differential. Wake drives are moved with home time. Sleep drive is moved with bedtime and sleep debt relative to times and a sleep debt scale, respectively. Resulting displays predict alertness, drowsiness, wake drives in relation to sleep drives, best bedtime, sleep debt and illumination recommendations.

  • Patent number: 5154609
    Abstract: The present invention provides for an apparatus and method for registration of the dental bite of a patient. An impression plate is provided for insertion into the patient's mouth and incorporates an upper incisor engagement means and an extension protruding out of the patient's mouth. An independent lower incisor engagement means is provided with an extension which is complementary to the upper incisor extension, wherein a groove in the lower extension mates with the upper extension which slides freely therein. Protrusion and retrusion of the lower jaw with respect to the upper jaw causes an anterposterior sliding movement of the lower extension with respect to the upper extension. Calibrations are provided on the extensions for measuring the relative movement therebetween. A lock is provided between the extensions to hold the extensions at a given calibration for registering the bite at that calibration.

  • Patent number: 4715368
    Abstract: This invention is a unique and dentally supported intra-oral device designed to prevent the occlusion of the oro-pharngeal airway which occurs while sleeping for patients with sleep apnea consisting of a one-piece dental mouthpiece with a front beak housing an orifice airway and custom-fitted anchoring molar and labial wire clasps and guide. It is one of the first solutions in the new field of pulmonary medical practice treating nocturnal breathing disorders.
