  • Patent number: 11896760
    Abstract: The invention relates to a breathing device (1), comprising a mouthpiece (2) forming a breathing channel to form a connection between a first (3) end and a second (4) end of the mouthpiece (2). The first (3) end is configured for a user breathing into the mouthpiece through a breathing opening (5). An at least partly flexible rebreathing air chamber (6) is arranged in fluid communication with the second (4) end of the mouthpiece, thereby being in fluid connection with the breathing channel through the second end of the mouthpiece (2). The rebreathing air chamber is formed by at least partly flexible wall section(s). A wall member (7) is arranged at the second (4) end of the mouthpiece and/or attached to the rebreathing air chamber (6). The wall member (7) comprises one or more through-going openings (8) provided in the wall member (7) and/or in the breathing channel, allowing fluid communication between the rebreathing air chamber (6) and the surrounding atmosphere.

  • Patent number: 9132251
    Abstract: A facial breathing mask suitably for regulating the carbon dioxide concentration in the inspired air, the facial mask comprising an air chamber with an opening through which a user can breathe. At least a part of the air chamber is flexible and/or collapsible and comprises one or more of semi-permeable membranes separating the air chamber and a surrounding atmosphere. In use, the invention can raise the carbon dioxide tension in the inspired air and/or influence the depth and rate of breathing of the user.

  • Publication number: 20110137273
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a fecal management system for collecting fecal matter from the rectum. The system comprises a first fecal receiving bag and a second fecal receiving bag having an elongated section extending in a flow direction between a second proximal opening and a reservoir section, wherein the first fecal receiving bag and the second fecal receiving bag are connectable to each other. This provides a fecal management system that is adaptable to the user; e.g. the first fecal receiving bag can be produced as a compact and portable device, which allows for the user to move around as fecal matter will be collected in the first fecal receiving bag and thereby avoiding any embarrassing accidents; and when the user lies in bed the second fecal receiving bag can be coupled to the first fecal receiving bag, which allows for additional capacity for collecting e.g. nightly stools.

  • Patent number: 7951125
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a set of coupling parts, such as parts for coupling an ostomy bag to a base plate, said base plate being adhered around a stoma. The set of coupling parts provides a connection part that may be interposed between a first coupling part and a second coupling part and where the coupling parts may be connected and disconnected from each other by the same movement of the connection part.
