  • Publication number: 20200268601
    Abstract: A pulmonary expansion therapy (PXT) device may be a handheld or wearable device that covers specific lung fields and may generate negative pressure fields locally. The device also may provide vibratory/percussion therapy for airway clearance. The PXT may generate a localized negative pressure field non-invasively to the exterior of the chest wall, thereby increasing the functional residual capacity in underlying lung fields. As a result, increased ventilation and perfusion to the targeted internal lung field may be achieved by creating a decrease in the external barometric pressure relative to the more positive intrinsic airway pressures. The PXT device also may improve lung compliance by elevating the chest wall to compensate for the dysfunction of the respiratory musculature responsible for lifting the chest wall. In some embodiments, once a targeted functional residual capacity (FRC) has been established, vibration or percussion may be applied.

    Abstract: A wearable stimulator device can be used to treat nausea and vomiting resulting from pregnancy, gastroparesis, virtual reality use, motion sickness, chemotherapy, and post-surgical nausea and vomiting, or other conditions by stimulating the P6 point of a user's forearm. A method of treating nausea includes monitoring one or more physiological parameters of a user via a wearable device, for example a smartwatch. Based on the one or more physiological parameters, the P6 point of the user's forearm can be stimulated for a predetermined time, for example via vibrational stimulation effected via a smartwatch or other wearable device. Data regarding the user's physiological parameters, stimulation sessions, and user-provided input regarding treatment efficacy and user symptoms can be collected and analyzed at scale to develop improved treatment regimes, for example modifying stimulation waveforms and/or timing, and identifying physiological parameters useful for predicting the onset of nausea.

  • Publication number: 20200268604
    Abstract: A closure for an ampoule, the closure comprising: a cap portion arranged to engage with a broken neck of an opened ampoule; and a cylindrical skirt portion extending from the cap portion, the skirt portion being elastically deformable and being arranged to move from a first position in which it is at least partially folded back on itself to a second position in which it is unfolded and extends away from the cap portion. The closure can close off an opening such as that formed in an ampoule when the neck is snapped and the top removed. As the cap portion engages with the broken neck, it reduces the chances of users receiving lacerations from the sharp edges. The cap portion also seals the ampoule, preventing the contents from being spilled and/or wasted. The closure also provides a degree of impact protection, reinforcement and strengthening to the now weakened open end of the ampoule, e.g. in case the ampoule is dropped.
