摘要:
The methane sulphonate salt of morphine and compositions thereof have medicinal uses, particularly in the treatment of pain. Compositions comprising a methane sulphonate salt of an opioid analgesic also have medicinal uses, adapted for nasal delivery.
摘要:
An intrasnal spray device contains a composition for the intranasal delivery of fentanyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof to an animal includes an aqueous solution of fentanyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable additive selected from (i) a pectin and (ii) a poloxamer and chitosan or a salt or derivative thereof; provided that when the composition comprises a pectin it is substantially free of divalent metal ions; and which, in comparison to a simple aqueous solution of fentanyl administered intranasally at the same dose, provides a peak plasma concentration of fentanyl (Cmax) that is from 10 to 80% of that achieved using a simple aqueous solution of fentanyl administered intranasally at an identical fentanyl dose. A method for treating or managing pain by intranasally administering the composition is also disclosed.

摘要:
Compositions are provided for the intranasal administration of granisetron or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Preferred compositions are in the form of an aqueous solution. Optionally, the compositions comprise chitosan, a salt or derivative thereof or a salt of a derivative of chitosan. The compositions can be used for the treatment or prevention of nausea and/or vomiting.
摘要:
A system and method for extracting a biological fluid from an organism and continuously monitoring its characteristics. The system includes a tissue interface device suitable for positioning on or about the surface of the biological membrane of the organism and a monitor and control unit coupled to the tissue interface device. The tissue interface device includes a sensor positioned in a flow path of the fluid for continuously sensing a characteristic of the biological fluid as it flows out from the one or more artificial openings formed in the biological membrane. The sensor generates a sensor signal representative thereof. The monitor and control unit electrically or optically reads the sensor to obtain a measurement of a characteristic, such as concentration of a particular analyte, of the biological fluid on a continuous basis.
摘要:
A gas discharge lamp power supply having a base, a pair of opposed side walls extending from the base, and opposed first and second end walls extending from the base between the opposed side walls. The first end wall has a sloped wall extending angularly between the side walls, and two input terminals are mounted on the sloped wall. In another embodiment, the power supply has a control with a nonvolatile memory for storing an error code in response to a detected fault condition, thereby permitting the error code to be displayed upon power being removed from and then, subsequently reapplied.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a system and method for monitoring or treating a health condition. The method can include accessing a biological fluid, evaluating an analyte in the fluid, presenting a measurement parameter based on the evaluation, and/or administering a treatment based on the evaluation. The measurement parameter can prompt administering a treatment. The system can include a fluid handling device, a display and/or alert device, and/or an administration device. This abstract is provided for searching purposes only and is not meant for construing the claims.
摘要:
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for analyzing trace data that facilitates the analysis by minimizing extraneous results presented to a user. The apparatus includes a user interface to define a query expression based on a condition and one or more parameters and to display a report of trace entries satisfying the query expression. A record handler retrieves an unstructured trace record from a storage device or database. A structuring module divides the unstructured trace record logically into two or more trace entries based on structural information. A comparison module applies the query expression to each entry. This application of the query expression may include further sub-dividing the entry logically to search on a sub-entry level. The comparison module assembles entries satisfying the query expression into an abridged trace record. A report engine combines the abridged trace records into a report of trace entries satisfying the query expression.
