Formulation To Treat Ear Infection
US Patent:
2008013, Jun 12, 2008
Filed:
May 22, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/752087
Inventors:
Joseph Baxter Roberson - Palo Alto CA, US
Michael T. Murray - Mountain View CA, US
Michael T. Murray - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
A61K 31/5383, A61K 31/497, A61P 31/04, A61P 31/12, A61P 31/00
US Classification:
5142302, 51425308
Abstract:
The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition that includes: (a) at least one of a non-aminoglycoside antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory agent; and (b) a biofilm-dissolving agent. The present invention also provides for methods of killing or inhibiting the growth of a fungus by contacting the fungus with a composition of the present invention, methods of killing or inhibiting the growth of a virus by contacting the virus with a composition of the present invention, methods of killing or inhibiting the growth of a bacteria by contacting the bacteria with a composition of the present invention, methods of treating a disorder in a mammal by administering the composition of the present invention to the mammal, methods for preserving contact lens by contacting the contact lens with a composition of the present invention, methods for cleansing surgical or dental instrument by contacting the fungus with a composition of the present invention, and kits that include (a) a container that includes the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention, and (b) a drug delivery device.
Length-Adjustable Ossicular Prosthesis
US Patent:
2003009, May 22, 2003
Filed:
Oct 2, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/262725
Inventors:
Joseph Roberson - Palo Alto CA, US
John Shadduck - Tiburon CA, US
John Shadduck - Tiburon CA, US
International Classification:
A61F002/18
US Classification:
623/010000
Abstract:
A middle ear prosthesis that is length-adjustable in a post-implantation period to accommodate tensions in tissue caused by healing. The ossicular prosthesis can be used in total and partial ossicular replacement surgeries and can take the form of (i) an active prosthesis, (ii) a partially-active prosthesis, or (iii) a passive prosthesis. In a preferred embodiment, the prosthesis is partially-active and comprises first and second body portions that slidably mate to alter the overall prosthesis length. An engagement or locking mechanism is provided to lock the first and second body portions in a selected position to thereby provide a selected length. In another embodiment, the prosthesis carries a photothermal micropump for moving fluid between first and second chambers to adjust the prosthesis length. In another embodiment, the prosthesis has a medial portion of a shape memory polymer (SMP) that changes length in response to thermal effects, with the SMP covered with an effective insulator layer to prevent substantial thermal effects in the middle ear.
Hearing Implant With Mems Inertial Sensor And Method Of Use
US Patent:
2005024, Nov 3, 2005
Filed:
Apr 28, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/833424
Inventors:
Joseph Roberson - East Palo Alto CA, US
International Classification:
A61N001/18
US Classification:
607057000
Abstract:
An implant device for treating hearing disorders. In one exemplary embodiment, an implant body is dimensioned for attachment to the ossicular chain of a patient. The implant body carries a micro-encapsulated MEMS inertial sensing device that is electrically coupled by a micro-cable to an implantable signal processing system. The MEMS inertial sensor is capable of directly sensing acoustic waves transmitted through the ossicular chain. Signals from the inertial sensor are sent to the signal processing system for filtering, conditioning and amplification to thereafter be carried to a plurality of electrodes carried by a cochlear implant.
System And Method For Treatment Of Non-Ventilating Middle Ear By Providing A Gas Pathway Through The Nasopharynx

Assignee:
Acclarent, Inc. - Menlo Park CA
International Classification:
A61F 11/00, A61F 2/18
US Classification:
623 10, 606109
Abstract:
Methods and devices for providing a gas pathway between the nasopharynx and the Eustachian tube are provided. One device may include a lumen with a valve. A portion of the valve may be tethered to adjacent muscle. Another portion of the valve may be tethered to adjacent cartilage. When the muscle contracts the valve may open through movement of the tethers, and provide a gas pathway between the nasopharynx and the Eustachian tube.
