International Classification:

G06K 9/00

US Classification:

382128

Abstract:

An apparatus for and method of analyzing hematologic samples deposited within a capillary tube is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) imaging a region of sample centrifuged within a capillary tube using a first analysis device, which region is defined by substantially all of the radial width and axial length of the sample residing within the internal cavity of the tube where the float resides after centrifugation, and producing signals representative of the image; b) communicating the signals representative of the image to a second analysis device independent of, and remotely located from, the first analysis device; c) processing the signals representative of the image using the second analysis device and producing analysis data based on the signals; and d) displaying the image of the region of the sample using the second analysis device.

US Classification:

435 29, 4352887, 4352881

Abstract:

A method and device for analyzing a hematologic sample centrifuged within a capillary tube is provided. The device includes a tube holder, a sample imaging device, a processor, and a sample data display. The sample imaging device is operable to create a digital image of the sample within a region of the tube. The region is defined by substantially all of the radial width and axial length of the sample residing within the internal cavity of the tube in the region where the float resides after centrifugation. The sample imaging device is operable to produce signals representative of the image. The processor is adapted to produce information relating to bands of interest within the image based on the signals from the sample imaging device. The sample data display is adapted to display the results therefrom and/or a digital image of the sample within the region.

Abstract:

A method for administering an active pharmaceutical agent (APA) is provided that includes the steps of: a) providing a medicine having a dose of at least one APA and at least one active botanical agent (ABA) or dietary supplement; and b) dosing the APA within the medicine such that within each subsequent dose of the medicine, the amount of the APA decreases and the amount of the ABA increases, or remains the same, or decreases relative to an earlier amount. A trace of the APA may or may not remain in the pill toward the end of medicine application.

US Classification:

424463, 424474, 424451, 424464, 424725

Abstract:

A method for administering pharmaceutical agents to a subject is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) providing a course of treatment for a subject, which course includes periodically administering an amount of medicine to the subject, which amount of medicine includes a dose of at least one active pharmacological agent (APA) and an amount of at least one non-active pharmacological agent (NPA), which NPA provides at least one non-visual sensory cue; and b) varying the dosage amount of the APA within the periodically administered amount of medicine, while the amount of the NPA contained within each periodically administered amount of medicine is provided at a level that maintains the sensory cue at a substantially constant level.

Abstract:

A method for treating at least one of neuro-olfactory triggered illnesses, and related conditions within a subject is provided. The method includes the steps of: a) providing a composition that includes one or more agents adapted to induce a level of anosmia/hyposmia in the subject, which level of anosmia/hyposmia is sufficient to substantially decrease olfactory sensory stimulation within the subject and a neurologic response to the stimulation that is one or both of triggering and aggravating the illness or condition; and b) applying the composition to a nasopharynx region of the subject.

US Classification:

36441308

Abstract:

Described is a hematology-diagnosis apparatus employing expert system technology. The apparatus comprises a computer/data processor which is provided with a memory facility, a central processor and a printer. Stored in the memory facility is a knowledge base applicable to hematologic diagnostics, and instructions by which the apparatus is to process input data, in the form of a plurality of--four in a specific exemplary embodiment--hematologic parametric numerics obtained from a patient's bood assay. The numerics are entered via entry means. The apparatus accordingly executes the instructions, and on the basis of the parametric numerics, prints out diagnostic and hematologic messages applicable to the patient.
