| 20080283051 | LUNG THERAPY DEVICE - The invention relates in general to a respiratory therapy device, and more specifically to an apparatus and method for providing continuous positive airway pressure therapy that may be connected to a small-volume nebulizer in order to provide a combination therapy that requires only a single source of gas. The apparatus of the invention includes a valveless patient interface and a source of pressurized gas which may be split into two streams to provide both continuous positive airway pressure therapy as well as aerosol therapy to a patient. | 11-20-2008 |
| 20090188500 | COMBINATION BREATHING TREATMENT METHOD - A method of providing a combination lung treatment therapy that is substantially uninterrupted between providing continuous positive airway pressure therapy and high-frequency therapy is disclosed. The present invention combines multiple respiratory therapies in order to facilitate the prevention and treatment of certain pulmonary diseases. The present invention also discloses a method of providing a combination lung treatment therapy that is substantially uninterrupted between providing medicated continuous positive airway pressure therapy and medicated high-frequency therapy is disclosed. | 07-30-2009 |
| 20110100360 | COMPOSITE LUNG THERAPY DEVICE AND METHOD - A system, device, and method of providing concurrent or contiguous breathing treatments for the purposes of clearing secretions from the lungs, expanding the airways, and delivering medicated aerosol is provided. In one embodiment, a device is provided for administering medicated aerosol delivery, lung expansion therapy, and/or secretion clearance therapy either concurrently or contiguously. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110100364 | MULTIPLE CONDUIT CONNECTOR APPARATUS AND METHOD - A multiple-conduit connector includes a first coupling part that includes multiple first connectors associated with a corresponding conduit and a second coupling part that includes multiple second connectors associated with a corresponding conduit. Each conduit of the second coupling part communicates with a corresponding conduit of the first coupling part when the first coupling part and the second coupling part are detachably connected together. The multiple-conduit connector includes a guide projection located on one coupling part and a guide recess to receive the guide projection and disposed at a corresponding location in the other coupling part. | 05-05-2011 |
