Doctors and nurses have long relied on tried-and-true medical technologies to care for their patients, but the ever-increasing focus on patient safety has made innovation in this field a priority. ...
Methods of measuring FeNO Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) measurement plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and management of airway inflammation. FeNO testing is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) to help diagnose asthma1, with the NObreath® device one of three devices recommended by NICE1. In 2005 the American Thoracic Society (ATS) and the ...
Drug antibody testing is a laboratory testing method specifically designed to evaluate the immune response of the human body to certain drugs. This test is commonly used to monitor a patient's immune response to biological agents or other drugs, especially in the treatment of chronic diseases such as autoimmune diseases, certain cancers, and inflammatory diseases. The principle of drug antibody ...
FeNO Testing in Asthma Care Although airway eosinophilic inflammation is a key characteristic of asthma, there are few methods available to measure it. This inflammation can be assessed by measuring eosinophils and eosinophilic cationic protein (ECP) in sputum or by measuring ECP in blood samples1. However, these methods are considered time-consuming, expensive, and not readily available. For ...
This white paper details a study by Predictive Oncology and UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital. By combining the assets and domain expertise of both organizations, this collaboration aimed to improve ovarian cancer prognosis and treatment through accurate patient stratification and survival outcome predictions. Background and objective High grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) of the ovary is a complex and ...
And both spirometry sensing solutions offer graphic real-time data display and history records checking for better patient information management and tracking. Both Gasboard 7021 and Gasboard7020 can be used to monitor static vital capacity, forced vital capacity and maximum voluntary ventilation rate. ...
What Are the Advantages of Single-Cell RNA Sequencing? One of the significant advantages of scRNA-seq in drug discovery is its impact on target identification. By allowing researchers to dissect complex tissues and diseases at the cellular level, scRNA-seq enables the identification of distinct cell subtypes and their gene expression profiles. This information can lead to a better understanding ...
Introduction Genomics has revolutionized cancer research, transforming the way we diagnose, treat, and monitor cancer. Among the powerful genetic analysis methods, Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) stands out as a cutting-edge technique that employs sequence capture technology to enrich DNA from the whole exome regions, enabling high-throughput sequencing. WES offers a simpler, more cost-effective, ...
Gadgets are utilized to track the patient’s status and condition in real-time. RPM apps are mobile programs that let individuals keep track of their health information and communicate it to their healthcare providers. ...
The aim of the project was to gain expert knowledge in the field of commercialisation of an innovative solution increasing the possibilities of monitoring the patient’s condition and communication with him/her during MRI examinations. ...
As we all know, proteins play important roles in human bodies since all physiologic events are related to the structural or mechanical functions of certain proteins. Studying the synthesis process of proteins is a way to study the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of certain diseases. The human genome contains approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA. Among them, only about 30 ...
Recent clinical trials investigating sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have highlighted that this drug is highly effective in treating patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF is a complex disease which accounts for more than half of all heart failure (HF) hospital admissions and is an increasing disease burden. [1] The prevalence of HFpEF is ...
Good decision-making relies on good information. That’s why data collection is so important to businesses of all types. In healthcare, it can literally be a life-and-death concern. Currently, two data-related trends are delivering new levels of optimization in hospitals with the potential to vastly improve operations and safety: The convergence of information technology (IT) systems ...
Beyond driving early detection and intervention with your detection algorithm, it is critical that your digital health and sepsis detection solution has sepsis patient tracker board functionality that provides automatic sepsis surveillance and at-a-glance awareness of patient status. ...
With the rising demand for improving patient safety in clinical trials, the adoption of patient-centric solutions is considered the best route to enhance data accuracy and experience automated workflows. This is where eCOA comes into play. In this blog post, we will find out how electronic clinical outcome assessments are helping the clinical trials industry handle the ever-growing list of ...

The term sepsis describes the body's extreme response to infection. When a person suffers from sepsis, his or her immune system has been triggered in response to an infection, which causes inflammation and damages tissues in the body. Symptoms of Sepsis The symptoms of sepsis may include: Fever (102 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) Chills Rapid breathing (above 20 breaths per minute) or ...
Abstract Objective Noise in the neonatal intensive care unit can be detrimental to the health of the hospitalized infant. Means of reducing that noise include staff training, warning lights, and ear coverings, all of which have had limited success. Single family rooms, while an improvement, also expose the hospitalized infant to the same device alarms and mechanical noises found in open bay ...
