System And Method For Preventing Closure Of Passageways

US Patent:
2006026, Nov 23, 2006
Filed:
Apr 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/414041
Inventors:
Stephen Brooks - San Mateo CA, US
Jed Black - Stanford CA, US
International Classification:
A61B 19/00
US Classification:
128863000
Abstract:
A system for treating sleep-related breathing disorders. In one embodiment, the system includes a first magnetically susceptible material attached to a left lateral pharyngeal wall and a second magnetically susceptible material attached to a right lateral pharyngeal wall. The second magnetically susceptible material is positioned opposite the first magnetically susceptible material across an upper airway. The system further includes a first magnet disposed outside the body and lateral to the first magnetically susceptible material, and a second magnet disposed outside the body and lateral to the second magnetically susceptible material.

Altering The Stiffness, Size And/Or Shape Of Tissues For Breathing Disorders And Other Conditions

US Patent:
2005012, Jun 9, 2005
Filed:
Nov 4, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/982172
Inventors:
Stephen Brooks - San Francisco CA, US
Jed Black - Stanford CA, US
International Classification:
A62B007/00, A61M016/00
US Classification:
128863000
Abstract:
Medical devices, systems, and methods mitigate a variety of disorders, including sleep-related breathing disorders. A stiffness, shape, and/or size of a reinforced tissue structure can be altered by applying a magnetic field and/or electrical field. The upper airway can be remodeled at night while maintaining physiological movement (such as swallowing, speaking, singing, and the like) when awake. Biasing of the tissue structures may also be employed.
