20110200683 | Hydrogen peroxide solution producing first aid substance, packaging, and treatment - The present invention is directed generally to a first aid treatment package the contents of which can be mixed with available water to create a solution useful for the treatment of wounds, and more specifically, a first aid treatment package the contents of which include a adduct of hydrogen peroxide which when mixed with available water create a hydrogen peroxide solution for the first aid treatment of wounds in remote locations or under circumstances when normal community resources are unavailable. | 08-18-2011 |
20110124115 | Indication enhanced colorimetric detector - The present invention pertains generally to colorimetric indicia provided by a primary device, and more particularly, to at least one indicator moiety influenced by changing environments wherein the indicator moiety exhibits a rapid initial response and a protracted transient time for visualization by an operator. As compared to heretofore colorimetric indicator technologies, the present invention allows for improved accuracy of data interpretation by direct visual capture of changing environments with shorter duration transients. | 05-26-2011 |
20110120473 | Regulation of intrathoracic pressures by cross seal vent valve - The present invention relates generally to devices and methods for finite control and regulation of patient intrathoracic pressures, and more specifically, to devices and methods that finitely regulates a patient's intrathoracic pressures during repeated cycling events (i.e. respiration) by use of a cross-seal vent valve to form transient pressure windows. The cross-seal vent valve is biased against the pressure necessary to evacuate and/or inflate the lungs of that patient, while a controlled venting of that pressure by at least a partial volume thereof allows for controlled resetting of the baseline pressure to anatomical norms. This enhanced means for regulating intrathoracic pressure are applicable in a number of medically important therapies, including but not limited to, conditioning of pulmonary systems for acclimation to altered environmental conditions, reconditioning of pulmonary system after operating in a diminished state, and application in cardiopulmonary resuscitation procedures. | 05-26-2011 |
20110114090 | Inhalation actuated nebulizer with impingement shield - The present invention is directed generally to a nebulizer for the formation of micro-droplets from liquid medicaments for respiratory patient treatment, and more specifically, to a baffled nebulizer wherein a static baffle used to form an atomized medicament is proximal to a shied which responds to patient respiration force to oscillate from an aerosol flow occluding position to an aerosol flow open position. During inhalation, the shield moves into a first registration format to allow passage of the atomized medicament (nebula) to the patient. During exhalation/non-use, a biasing pressure maintains said shield in a second registration format such that the nebula is retarded from passing to the patient and is coalesced into macro-droplets which return to a supply reservoir for re-atomization. The present nebulizer design is particularly adaptable for controlling atomization in response to patient respiratory forces exceeding a defined threshold; allowing for opportunity to control inhalation airflow and enhanced therapy regimes. | 05-19-2011 |
20100310425 | Real-time indicator detector - The present invention pertains generally to a detection means for indicia provided by a primary device, and more particularly, to a detection sensor assembly adapted to measure at least one indicator moiety influenced by changing gaseous environments. A detection sensor assembly performs to collect and respond to changing gaseous environments in real-time, conveying that information to a user of the detection sensor assembly sufficiently quickly and accurately such that the user can respond to the changing gaseous environments in a timely manner. The detection sensor assembly operates using an incident receiver in the form of an indicator sensor. An indicator moiety responsive to particular elements or compounds of interest in a gaseous environment is positioned proximal to the indicator sensor such that changes in the indicator moiety are captured by operation of the indicator sensor. | 12-09-2010 |
