Abstract: An instrument tray is configured for use with surgical and/or other invasive or non-invasive medical procedures, such as in operating rooms or ICU rooms within a hospital, for example. The tray facilitates a safe transfer of instruments between a procedural team and performing the procedure. In an embodiment the surgical tray may be attached directly to the patient and/or patient's drapes so that the tray may rest upon the patient.

Abstract: A system and method for managing ventilation of a user, through the use of an oral appliance, is disclosed. The appliance is configured to fit between the user's teeth and lips or cheeks to inhibit ventilation by the user around the appliance, and includes a passageway. An airway resistor within the passageway includes an aperture that is sized to allow a metered amount of air flow by the ventilation of the user. A pressure sensor measures an air pressure in the aperture, which measurement is transmitted to an external computer processor to generate feedback data for the user.

Abstract: The disclosures is directed to cough detectors, methods and kits. Cough detectors can include, for example, a housing adaptable to engage an abdomen or thorax of a mammal; a first sensor comprising an AGM sensor positioned within the housing; a processor in communication with the AGM sensor wherein the processor is capable of receiving a signal from the AGM sensor and analyzing the signal to determine whether the signal is characterizable as a cough; and a power source.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to devices, systems, kits and methods for managing respiratory episodes and providing dynamic respiratory predictions of the likelihood of occurrence of a respiratory episode prior to potential onset of respiratory episodes based on physiological data, environmental data and patient data for other patients in the system.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to devices, systems, kits and methods for measuring peak expiratory or inspiratory flow-rate and dynamically predicting respiratory episodes. Additionally, systems for analyzing and processing the measurement in a communication networked environment are also provided. An aspect of the disclosure is directed to a respiratory device, In some configurations the respiratory device comprises a housing adaptable and configurable to communicate with an electronic device, a mouth piece having a proximal end and a distal end configurable to engage a mouth of a patient and transmit an air flow, one or more diaphragm sensors configured to detect a breath vibration from the air flow in the mouth piece, and a processor adaptable and configurable to analyze the breath vibration detected by the one or more diaphragm sensors.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing a device are described. A device agent may receive device information associated with a device, such as information concerning operation of the device. The device agent may be configured to maintain a device model or operating protocol associated with the operation of the device, such as various operational parameters, operating characteristics and/or programs. The device agent may monitor the device based on the device information streamed, for example, in substantially real time from the device. A central management system may be in communication with the device agent and may operate to verify and/or update the device model based on the device information. The device information may be presented to client devices, for instance, through a graphical user interface. The client devices may also be able to transmit control signals to the central management system for controlling various aspects of the device.

Abstract: An alert device is positioned on a bed, such as on the head region of the bed. The alert device is configured to detect or otherwise measure the angle of orientation of the head region such as relative to the horizontal plane. The alert device is configured to provide an alert when the angle orientation of the head region falls outside a predetermined value or range of values. The alert may be any audio, visual, or tactile means of notifying a user as to an alarm condition.
