Separable double lumen endotracheal tube
A separable double lumen endotracheal tube is disclosed having a first lumen and a second lumen and which are removably affixed together to allow the first lumen to be separated from the second lumen of the double lumen endotracheal tube and, if desired, to be subsequently affixed together again. Either lumen of the double lumen endotracheal tube can function alone for positive pressure ventilation, but normally the bronchial lumen will be removed from a patient and the tracheal lumen left in place to function alone to provide positive pressure ventilation as required by a patient. The double lumen endotracheal tube will, however, function to allow the bronchial lumen to remain in a patient subsequent to removal of the tracheal lumen as a matter of choice during a medical procedure.

Method For Determining Hemodynamic Effects Of Positive Pressure Ventilation
The present disclosure relates, in some embodiments, to devices, systems, and / or methods for collecting, processing, and / or displaying stroke volume and / or cardiac output data. For example, a device for assessing changes in cardiac output and / or stroke volume of a subject receiving airway support may comprise a processor; an airway sensor in communication with the processor, wherein the airway sensor is configured and arranged to sense pressure in the subject's airway, lungs, and / or intrapleural space over time; a blood volume sensor in communication with the processor, wherein the blood volume sensor is configured and arranged to sense pulsatile volume of blood in a tissue of the subject over time; and a display configured and arranged to display a representative of an airway pressure, a pulsatile blood volume, a photoplethysmogram, a photoplethysmogram ratio, the determined cardiac output and / or stroke volume, or combinations thereof. A method of assessing changes in cardiac output or stroke volume of a subject receiving airway support from a breathing assistance system may comprise sensing pressure in the subject's airway as a function of time, sensing pulsatile volume of blood in a tissue of the subject as a function of time, producing a photoplethysmogram from the sensed pulsatile volume, determining the ratio of the amplitude of the photoplethysmogram during inhalation to the amplitude of the photoplethysmogram during exhalation, and determining the change in cardiac output or stroke volume of the subject using the determined ratio.

InactiveUS6951217B2Improve comfortStabilization prevention of Cheyne-StokesRespiratorsOperating means/releasing devices for valvesLow-pass filterPositive pressure
Method and apparatus for the treatment of cardiac failure, Cheyne Stokes breathing or central sleep apnea are disclosed. A subject is provided with ventilatory support, for example positive pressure ventilatory support using a blower and mask. Respiratory airflow is determined. From the respiratory airflow are derived a measure of instantaneous ventilation (for example half the absolute value of the respiratory airflow) and a measure of longterm average ventilation (for example the instantaneous ventilation low pass filtered with a 100 second time constant). A target ventilation is taken as 95% of the longterm average ventilation. The instantaneous ventilation is fed as the input signal to a clipped integral controller, with the target ventilation as the reference signal. The output of the controller determines the degree of ventilatory support. Clipping is typically to between half and double the degree of support that would do all the respirator work. A third measure of ventilation, for example instantaneous ventilation low pass filtered with a time constant of 5 seconds, is calculated. Ventilatory support is in phase with the subject's respiratory airflow to the fuzzy extent that this ventilation is above target, and at a preset rate conversely.

Determination of leak during cpap treatment
ActiveUS20100101574A1Quick fixDetection of fluid at leakage pointFlow propertiesRespiratory flowEngineering
In a CPAP or positive pressure ventilation system, leak is determined at each instant by a lookback for a time as long as single breath to establish the start of an averaging window over which low-pass filtered values used in the determination of a parameter of a leak model are averaged. A jamming index indicates whether the leak is rapidly changing. To the extent that jamming is high, the leak estimate used progressively changes from that using sliding breath-window averaging to a more robust and faster responding low-pass filter method, and adjustment of ventilatory support based on measures employing estimated respiratory flow is slowed down or stopped.

A removable nose pad cushion adherable to a medical face mask and more particularly to a positive pressure ventilation mask approximately where the mask rests on the upper nose area of a wearer's face providing a cushioning seal between the mask and wearer's nose. The nose pad cushion can be impregnated with medication to be adsorbed by the skin of the patient. The surface of the nose pad cushion which contacts the skin of the user is soft and pliable and selected to removably adhere only to dry skin and is incapable of sticking to a moist wound bed or sores formed on the bridge of the nose. The area covered by the cushion primarily covers the upper nose area but could cover the entire interface between the mask and the face of a user. The cushion can be pre-shaped to be applied to the desired area of the mask. The adhesive which holds the cushion to the mask is of a type such that the cushion can be removed cleanly and replaced with another cushion periodically.

A self-inflating resuscitation system formed from a self-inflating resuscitation bag and an exhalation indicator. In particular, the self-inflating resuscitation bag provides an exhalation indicator, which may be an audio or visual indicator, or both. The exhalation indicator enables a caregiver to more accurately determine whether a patient is being ventilated, unlike prior art self-inflating resuscitation bags, and helps to detect esophageal intubation in intubated patients or gastric trapping of gas in non-intubated patients undergoing positive pressure ventilation. In general, the device may be interposed between any source of positive pressure ventilation and any airway device to monitor exhalation as an indicator of adequacy of ventilation.

Method of forming a respiratory conduit
The present invention relates to delivery conduits used in systems that provide positive pressure ventilation therapy. In particular, the present invention relates to a sleeve that allows flexible conduits to be joined and sealed to a thermoplastic connector, allowing for gases to be supplied to the conduit. The sleeve is used in the over moulding of an end connector onto the conduit. The sleeve and method of attaching a connector to a conduit of the present invention has the advantage that it prevents the connector from loosening or breaking when the conduit is bent, pulled or stressed, which can occur in some cases where the connector is attached to the conduit using a bond, such as glue. Furthermore, the occurrences of flashing of plastic across the conduit walls will be prevented during moulding, ensuring that no air or water leakages occur within the conduit walls.

A sealing device for positive pressure testing is attached to a respirator face mask and includes an outer frame integrally joined to a movable cap by a flexible link that biases the cap in an open position for the operational use of the face mask against a manually applied force to move the cap to a sealed position for the positive pressure testing to assure the proper fit of the face mask on the wearer. The method for positive pressure testing includes flexibly moving the sealing device from the open position to the sealing position such that the sealing surface of the cap seals the exhalation valve assembly closed. The wearer then exhales into the mask to test the seal of the mask. When the test is completed, the sealing device is released and the inherent biasing force moves the cap from the sealing position to the open position.
