Appl. No.:

13/204657

Inventors:

Jaques Reifman - New Market MD, US
Maxim Khitrov - Rockville MD, US
Andrew Reisner - Newtonville MA, US
Liangyou Chen - Hanover Park IL, US
Thomas McKenna - Frederick MD, US

International Classification:

A61B 5/024
G08C 15/06

US Classification:

600508, 34087002

Abstract:

A system is disclosed having a storage, a communications module for interacting with a medical measurement device, an analysis controller, and a test module that allows for the testing and evaluating of decision-support algorithms. A method for testing decision-support algorithms is disclosed having the steps of receiving into storage of a ruggedized, compact computer at least one decision-support algorithm; detecting with a communications module the initiation of a vital-sign monitoring session; receiving and storing vital-sign information into storage by the communications module; pushing the stored vital-sign information by an analysis controller to a test module running the stored at least one decision-support algorithm; and providing at least one output from the decision-support algorithm to at least one of a database and a display.

International Classification:

A01N 4304
A01N 3318
A01N 3100

US Classification:

514 28

Abstract:

An agent and treatment for a subject susceptible to septic shock. The subject is treated with a PKC inhibitor, preferably wit a PKC inhibitor selected from the group consisting of lipid analogues. Preferred among the lipid analogues are sphingosine and its analogues. The inhibitors of this invention are administered, preferably by infusion in a suitable pharmaceutical carrier, in a range of 0. 1 to 50 mg/Kg body weight preferably in the range of 0. 5 to 25 mg/Kg body weight and most preferably in the range of 1 to 5 mg/Kg body weight.
