<p>An airway obstruction correction apparatus including a bladder configured to fit within a user's external auditory canal, a pump to expand the bladder with fluid, a passage coupled with the pump and bladder to convey a fluid between the pump and bladder, a microcontroller coupled with the pump to affect an activation condition of the pump, and a reservoir coupled with the pump to retain fluid to expand the bladder into contact with a surface of the auditory canal A local data processing means and/or a remotely located data processing means can be configured to receive and transmit data to/from the apparatus via a data networking means and/or a wired or wireless signal A method of using an apparatus, a detected indication of an obstructed airway causes the apparatus to stimulate a user and induces an involuntary airway cleanng response.</p> |
