  • Patent number: 11439802
    Abstract: A method of treating a disease or condition in a subject in need thereof is disclosed. The method comprising: trans-epithelially administering a dispensable substance to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of the subject by orally administering an ingestible device comprising the dispensable substance to the subject. The ingestible device is configured for trans-epithelial delivery of the dispensable substance to the GI tract of the subject and the dispensable substance comprises a pharmaceutical formulation comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a glucagon receptor agonist or a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. The ingestible device releases the dispensable substance as at least one jet to a desired location of the GI tract of the subject.

  • Patent number: 10646265
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for cooling a sterile liquid for use in cryotherapy, the apparatus comprising: a first chamber (202) adapted to receive a removable container (201) of sterile liquid and a fluid port for receiving a fluid for applying, in use, pressure to a received removable container (201); and a second chamber (203) comprising a cooler; wherein the first chamber (202) is arranged to be in thermal conductivity with the second chamber (203) such that, in use, the contents of the first chamber (202) are cooled by the cooler of the second chamber (203). Advantageously, embodiments provide a system, heat exchanger unit within the system and method for supplying a sterilised working fluid to a catheter system for cryotherapy, the working fluid being supplied at a desired and easily controllable temperature and flow rate.

  • Publication number: 20200054558
    Abstract: An aerosol preparation assembly includes an entrainment chamber defining an entrainment volume. The entrainment chamber includes a gas inlet port, an aerosol inlet port and an outlet port. The entrainment chamber is configured such that a velocity of a flow of a gas within the entrainment volume is less than a velocity of the flow of the gas within the gas inlet port. The entrainment chamber is configured such that at least a portion of inlet aerosol is entrained into the flow of the gas within the entrainment volume to produce an entrained aerosol flow at the outlet port. The particle selection chamber is configured to receive the entrained aerosol flow and produce an outlet aerosol flow. The particle selection chamber and nozzle are collectively configured such that a volumetric median diameter of the outlet aerosol flow is less than a volumetric median diameter of the inlet aerosol.
