Abstract: A humidifier includes a housing, a water reservoir configured to hold a quantity of water, a fan assembly configured to generate an air flow path within the humidifier, a sanitizing system, and a wick assembly. The sanitizing system is configured to generate a sanitizing gas and to transfer the sanitizing gas to the water reservoir such that at least a portion of the sanitizing gas is absorbed into the water in the water reservoir. The wick assembly is fluidly configured to receive water from the water reservoir and transfer the water into the air flow path to generate humidified air. The water received by the wick assembly includes at least a portion of the sanitizing gas absorbed into the water, wherein at least a portion of the water received by wick assembly flows back to the water reservoir.

Abstract: A method of sanitizing at least a portion of a medical device with a sanitization system comprising a base comprising a sanitizing chamber, a sanitizing gas generator, a primary fan or pump, a secondary fan or pump, and a controller. The sanitizing operation comprising generating a sanitizing gas pulse including causing the sanitizing gas generator supplying a sanitizing gas and causing at least one of the primary fan or pump and the secondary fan or pump to operate for a pulse period, and conducting a dwell operation after the pulse period, the dwell operation comprising discontinuing supply of said sanitizing gas and slowing or stopping said primary fan or pump and said secondary fan or pump for a dwell time.

Abstract: Technologies (e.g., devices, systems and methods) for sanitizing positive airway pressure (PAP) systems are described. In some embodiments, the technologies include a PAP delivery system comprising a hose and a PAP mask, a positive pressure supply system configured to generate a flow of pressurized air which is delivered to a user through the hose to the PAP mask of the PAP delivery system, a sanitizing system configured to sanitize one or more components of the self-sanitizing PAP system, and a PAP base unit housing, wherein one or more components of the positive pressure supply system and the sanitizing system are disposed at least partially within the PAP base unit housing.

Abstract: Surface treatment articles, systems for making/loading surface treatment articles, and methods of making surface treatment articles are described. In embodiments the surface treatment articles are configured to be impregnated or otherwise loaded with a surface treatment liquid that includes a carrier and an active agent. The carrier may be or include water, and the active agent may be or include dissolved ozone, ozone degradation products, and/or ozone reaction products. The surface treatment liquid may contain a threshold concentration of active agent for a residence time that is sufficient for desired cleaning, disinfecting, and/or polishing applications.
