The COVID-19 (SARS-2-Cov) pandemic has resulted substantial damage public and currently, no effective treatment available this deadly disease. Intravenous vitamin C (VC) been shown attenuate cytokine storm infection. Studies sugges...

Carbapenems remain a mainstay for the empirical treatment of serious nosocomial infection. Although the tolerance and safety profile of the carbapenems as a class is favorable, the primary safety concern is the potential for treatment-emergent seizures. In preclinical testing, doripenem, a new carbapenem antibiotic, showed negligible neurotoxic effects. The safety and tolerability of intravenou...

In various treatment plans, the progress and velocity of intravenous infusion must be strictly controlled. Undeniable, present artificial monitoring methods not only increase the burden of patients, relatives and medical staff, but are vulnerable to lead oversight as well. This paper presents the design and implementation of a novel wireless sensor network for intravenous infusion monitoring ba...

For the treatment of scaly lichen, many medications have been proposed in form ointments, tinctures, etc. Recently, intravenous infusion neosalvarsan has sometimes successfully used. However, despite this, cases methods listed above do not give desired results, and patients, continuing to suffer for years, are forced put up with their fate as permanent carriers this disease.
