System For Conditioning Expiratory Muscles For An Improved Respiratory System

US Patent:
2003014, Jul 31, 2003
Filed:
Jan 22, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/349426
Inventors:
Christine Sapienza - Gainesville FL, US
Anatole Martin - Gainesville FL, US
Paul Davenport - Gainesville FL, US
International Classification:
A61M016/00
US Classification:
128/205240, 128/204180, 128/204230
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to breathing methods and devices, which increase intra-airway pressure, thus causing a positive expiratory pressure (PEP) which is not airflow dependent. Specifically, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides methods that utilize a pressure relief valve, preferably a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) valve, for providing positive expiratory pressure (PEP). The PEP is caused by directing the flow of gases exhaled by the patient through the PEEP valve, so that gases must be exhaled against the PEEP valve held closed by threshold pressure. In this way, gases exhaled by the patient are subject to positive exhalation pressure set by the threshold pressure, which in turn increase the pressure in the patient's airway. When the expiratory pressure exceeds the threshold pressure of the valve, the valve opens and air is exhaled. The present invention is further directed to a unique training system, which uses the PEEP valve to increase respiratory muscle strength. More specifically, the present invention provides methods to increase the expiratory airflow rate and endurance of the expiratory muscles in a person by increasing the ability of these muscles to force air out of the lungs.

Method For Treating Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder

US Patent:
2002000, Jan 24, 2002
Filed:
Jul 18, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/908329
Inventors:
Paul Davenport - Gainesville FL, US
Anatole Martin - Gainesville FL, US
International Classification:
A62B007/00, A62B009/00, A61M015/00, A61M016/00, A62B018/00
US Classification:
128/200240
Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to the field of breathing exercise devices and more particularly to expiratory breathing methods which promote proper resistance breathing by the user. More specifically, the present invention discloses a method which utilizes a pressure relief valve, preferably a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) valve, for providing positive expiratory pressure (PEP). The PEP is provided by obstructing the flow of gases exhaled by the patient through the PEEP valve, so that such gases must be exhaled against the PEEP valve's pressure threshold.

High Frequency Airway Oscillation For Exhaled Air Diagnostics

US Patent:
2010032, Dec 23, 2010
Filed:
Jun 9, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/797000
Inventors:
Paul Wesley Davenport - Gainesville FL, US
International Classification:
A61B 5/08
US Classification:
600532
Abstract:
The present invention relates to noninvasive methods for obtaining exhaled breath condensate (EBC) samples from the airways and lungs of a subject for use in diagnosing various conditions and diseases associated with biomarkers present in EBC, including diagnosis of lung cancer. The methods of the subject invention include generating and/or applying an oscillating airflow to a subject during inhalation and/or exhalation to induce increased concentration of biomarkers in EBC; collecting EBC from exhaled breath; and analyzing the collected EBC for biomarkers associated with disorders and/or diseases.
