DRUG DELIVERY HUB FOR VENTILATION MASK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240009408 titled 'DRUG DELIVERY HUB FOR VENTILATION MASK

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a drug delivery hub that consists of a housing, a reservoir, a nebulizer channel, and a gas channel. The housing is designed to directly connect with a mask that is used by a patient. The reservoir is located within the housing and is capable of dispensing medication. The nebulizer channel is connected to the reservoir and allows the medication to flow into the patient cavity when the hub is attached to the mask. The gas channel directs a gas flow towards the patient cavity through the nebulizer channel, causing the medication to be drawn from the reservoir and delivered to the patient.

  • The drug delivery hub is designed to be directly coupled with a mask, allowing for efficient and direct medication delivery to the patient.
  • The reservoir within the hub can dispense medication, ensuring a continuous supply of medication during the delivery process.
  • The nebulizer channel facilitates the flow of medication from the reservoir to the patient cavity, ensuring effective delivery.
  • The gas channel directs a gas flow towards the patient cavity, aiding in the dispersion of the medication and enhancing its effectiveness.

Potential Applications:

  • Medical devices and systems for delivering medication to patients.
  • Treatment of respiratory conditions such as asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Administration of medication in a controlled and precise manner.

Problems Solved:

  • Ensures efficient and direct delivery of medication to the patient.
  • Provides a continuous supply of medication during the delivery process.
  • Enhances the effectiveness of medication by facilitating its dispersion.

Benefits:

  • Improved patient experience with a direct and efficient drug delivery system.
  • Enhanced medication effectiveness through precise and controlled delivery.
  • Increased convenience and ease of use for patients and healthcare providers.


Original Abstract Submitted

drug delivery hubs are described herein. the drug delivery hub includes a hub housing, a reservoir, a nebulizer channel, and a gas channel. the hub housing defines a housing volume. the hub housing is configured to directly couple with a mask defining a patient cavity. the reservoir is disposed at least partially within the housing volume. the reservoir includes a reservoir volume configured to dispense a medicament. the nebulizer channel is in fluid communication with the reservoir volume and configured to be in fluid communication with the patient cavity when the hub is coupled with the mask. the gas channel is in fluid communication with the nebulizer channel. the gas channel is configured to direct a gas flow toward the patient cavity through the nebulizer channel, drawing a portion of the medicament from the reservoir through the nebulizer channel with the gas flow toward the patient cavity.
