Title: Technique et systeme utilise pour traiter un patient avec un medicament, afin d'optimiser une therapie et d'empecher un effet secondaire de ce medicament
Inventor: MCMICHAEL JOHN
IPC: A61K49/00
Filed: 2000-07-06
Abstract: L'invention concerne une technique et un système utilisé pour traiter un patient qui reçoit un médicament quelconque, afin d'optimiser une thérapie et d'empêcher un effet secondaire de ce médicament. Ledit système utilise des critères de substitution ou des indicateurs, notamment des concentrations sanguines de médicament, pour déterminer la prochaine dose requise par un patient. Du fait que les critères de substitution sont utilisés sous forme d'un changement d'état en pourcentage, on peut virtuellement utiliser un indicateur quelconque. Les critères de substitution peuvent comprendre une mesure quelconque de l'efficacité de l'action d'un médicament. Etant donné l'efficacité de l'action d'un médicament par rapport aux critères de substitution, une modification de la dose de médicament est calculée par le système. A l'inverse, en utilisant ce système, il est possible de déterminer le résultat attendu d'une modification de dose de médicament en fonction des critères de substitution.
