In 2012, Optimhal-Protecsom invented the IsoBreath® inspiratory valve, specificaly designed for the TipsHaler® valved holding chamber.
This conical anti-turnaroud valve, with a slight opening at rest, permits to modulate the inspiratory flow of the patient without generating inspiratory resistance for toddlers.
It promotes deep lung deposition of fine particles and limits drug deposition in the oropharyngeal area.
The European Patent Office, the authority in charge of granting European patents, has just officially issued the patent for this IsoBreath® inspiratory valve.
It’s a recognition of OptimHal’s research innovation capabilities and it reinforces OptimHal’s team in the commitment to develop new effective devices for the millions of patients suffering from asthma or allergies around the world.
From January 29 to February 1, 2018 will be held the Arab Health, which takes place as every year at the International Center of Congresses and Exhibitions of Dubai. (United Arab Emirates)
This fair, large and internationally renowned, is the unmissable event in the field of the pharmaceutical industry and medical devices. Arab Health attracted nearly 4,000 exhibitors from 40 different countries in 2017.
Find us at the French pavilion in Hall Z2 on B35 booth to discover our interfaces of inhalation dedicated to respiratory diseases as the TipsHaler®valved holding chamber or the OrHal®partitioned mask… but also our protective devices for the allergic patients as the Texaal®dust mite covers.
From January 26 to 28, 2018 will be held the 22nd edition of the Congress of Pneumology of French Language (CPLF), which will take place this year at the Palais des Congrès in Lyon (France).
This new edition will bring together nearly 5,000 health professionals, working in particular in the field of pneumology and will be on the theme : “Thoracic oncology – The lung and its environment“.
This congress is the opportunity to meet and exchange with many specialists in asthma : respirologists, allergists, patient associations…
At this occasion, we will be delighted to welcome you on our booth (80), to present the inhalation devices from ProtecSom-OptimHal research :
TipsHaler®, first valved holding chamber optimized for control treatments and especially inhaled corticosteroids.
CombiHaler®, the spacer for mechanical ventilation circuits.
Looking forward to meeting you in Lyon and to exchange with you !
« Purchase of “renewal” for my 12-year-old girl who is asthmatic since she was 4 years old. For some time, she has been sleeping with two pillows, one of which was not wrapped, and I have noticed a worsening of sneezing. So I try to wrap this 2nd pillow to limit its reaction to mites. Stay tuned…
PS: The rest of the bedding is protected for a long time and I am very satisfied with ProtecSom products. »
The year 2017 has been fruitful for CombiHaler®, our spacer for mechanical ventilation circuits. Several scientific publications published this year reveal the eagerness of the scientific community to work with our spacer for mechanical ventilation circuits, developed jointly with “l’Université de Tours”.
By studying the feasibility to connect CombiHaler® on different types of circuits (high flow nasal canula and single-limb non-invasive ventilation), the first 2 articles (Madney, 2017 and Harb, 2017) have opened up new prospects for the use of CombiHaler®.
The last article published in October (Rodriguez, 2017) presents encouraging results for the treatment of pulmonary infections that requires high antibiotics concentrations. By increasing the dose delivered directly de the patients’ lungs, the dose of antibiotics to the site of infection is increased, systemic side effects are reduced, and antibiotic resistance accrual is potentially limited.
This enthusiasm from the scientific community hints at a very bright future for CombiHaler®and its evolutions of our range of spacers for mechanical ventilation.
The Laboratoire ProtecSom-OptimHal is currently present at MEDICA Tradefair 2017, World Forum for Medicine, in Düsseldorf (Germany) until November 16th, 2017.
In 2016, this international event attracted more than 5100 exhibitors from 70 different countries and reveals all the facets of medical technology and medical products world market.
Find us at the French pavilion in Hall 17 on C23 booth to discover our interfaces of inhalation dedicated to respiratory diseases as the TipsHaler®valved holding chamber or the OrHal®partitioned mask… but also our protective devices for the allergic patients as the Texaal®dust mite covers.
Dedicated to innovation since 1970, the Galien Foundation fosters, recognizes, and rewards excellence in scientific innovation that improves the state of human health.
The most innovative Franco-American collaborations have been awarded during the Prix Galien – MedstartUp ceremony on Thursday 26 October in New-York.
A rigorous selection dedicated to global excellence
Following a drastic selection, only 11 out of 50 companies were nominated for the innovative aspect of their healthcare solutions.
ProtecSom-OptimHal laboratory was rewarded for :
« The Best Collaboration with academia Leading to a Breakthrough Solution »
A partnership with the Virginia Commonwealth University, Professor Bruce Rubin and PharmaSystems Inc.
« The Best Use of Patient Engagement Technologies »
A partnership with L’Association Pulmonaire in Québec and PharmaSystems Inc.
This historic victory is a great achievement for ProtecSom-OptimHal, thus proving recognition for its efforts in terms of innovation for healthcare.
A word from the Scientific Director
« I am very proud of these two successes and I congratulate our research teams for the quality of their work that has enabled these partnerships. This is an important asset for our company on American soil where we find ourselves partners with Professor Bruce Rubin whose life is dedicated to the health of children. » – Thierry Porée
From 12 till 14 October, the Convention Center of Quebec welcomes the 2me Biennale de l’Espace Francophone de Pneumologie.
The laboratoire ProtecSom-OptimHal will be present during this Congress gathering of several healthcare professionals and healthcare researchers of more than 25 French-speaking countries.
Theme : The medicine of precision
The theme of this 2nd edition “The medicine of precision” proposes to the patient a personalized treatment and adapted to the characteristics of the patient and its pathology, by taking into account its physical and sociocultural environment.
This initiative has for objective to guarantee a sustainable cooperation with the French-speaking countries, to ensure the sharing of knowledge and experiences, and finally to strengthen the development of collaborative research projects in pneumology.
Valved holding chamber TipsHaler® optimized for lung deposition of inhaled corticosteroids
In order to provide an actual progress to patients as well as caregivers, this initiative represents an opportunity for ProtecSom-OptimHal to introduce the valved holding chamber, TipsHaler®.
TipsHaler® is an innovant medical device which allows to limit upper airway depositions and to promote drug deposition in the deep lung, where the medicine is needed.
Mask OrHal® avoids nasal inhalation
Partitioned pediatric mask OrHal® will also be presented, which prevents from medicine deposit in the nose, and allows more deposition of drugs deeper in the lung during inspiration.
Dust mite bedding covers : a full fledged medical device
As well as our valved holding chambers, we will also show dust mite bedding covers as Texaal® Coton and Texaal® Polyester as well as Noxaalon® and Noxaalon® Bamboo ProtecSom-OptimHal covers design, manufacturing and control process is ISO 13485 (standard of fabrication for medical devices). It protects patients from dust mite allergens.
