Drug Delivery: Miscellaneous Routes

666
Drug delivery methods like oral inhalation, nasal sprays, transdermal patches, eye drops, intravitreal injection,  and rectal administration provide localized effects with reduced toxicity.
Oral inhalation and nasal sprays swiftly transfer drugs across the respiratory epithelium's mucosal layer. Inhaled glucocorticoids and bronchodilators directly target lung conditions such as asthma, while fluticasone nasal spray mitigates allergic rhinitis.
Transdermal patches transport drugs...

Methods of Documentation III: PIE01:21

Methods of Documentation III: PIE

2.0K
Problem-intervention-evaluation (PIE) is a systematic approach to documentation used in healthcare settings for clinical decision-making and patient care planning. It is a structured approach to organizing patient data based on problems, interventions, and evaluations. Here's a breakdown of its key features and considerations:

Patch Clamp01:18

Patch Clamp

6.1K
Many fundamental cell functions such as muscle contraction and nerve transmission rely on the electrical signals produced by the movement of positively and negatively charged ions across the cell membrane. One competent method to record current flowing across the whole cell or single ion channel is the patch-clamp technique.
In this method, a glass micropipette containing electrolyte solution is tightly sealed against a small portion of the cell membrane. As a result, a patch of the cell...

Since the discovery of the two BER pathways, there has been a debate about how a cell chooses one pathway over the other and the factors determining this selection. Numerous in vitro experiments have pointed out multiple determinants for the sub-pathway selection. These are:

Drug Delivery: Overview01:16

Drug Delivery: Overview

652
The selection of a drug's delivery route depends upon its physicochemical properties, including lipid or water solubility and ionization, as well as the therapeutic requirement, such as immediate or sustained effect. These routes can be divided into three primary categories: enteral, parenteral, and topical.
Enteral delivery involves administering drugs directly through swallowing, sublingual placement, or buccal application. Orally administered drugs predominantly navigate the...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.1K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Network Engineering
  • Cybersecurity

Background:

  • Traditional patch update delivery for Internet of Things (IoT) devices often faces scalability challenges and single points of failure.
  • Existing distributed file-sharing solutions are not optimized for niche content like IoT-specific patch updates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel distributed framework for secure and efficient patch update delivery to IoT devices.
  • To incentivize peer-to-peer (P2P) distribution of IoT patch updates, overcoming limitations of current systems.
  • To address potential misbehavior between IoT devices and distributors through a pay-per-piece protocol.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a distributed framework utilizing a blockchain-based lightning network for incentivizing distributors.
  • Implementation of a pay-per-piece protocol for gradual release and exchange of patch update components.
  • Integration of the Bitcoin lightning network with the BitTorrent delivery network for a prototype.

Main Results:

  • The proposed framework enables scalable, cost-effective patch distribution for IoT devices.
  • The pay-per-piece protocol effectively mitigates misbehavior and builds trust through incremental transactions.
  • A prototype demonstrates the feasibility of combining blockchain incentives with P2P delivery networks.

Conclusions:

  • The UIoT-pay-per-piece framework offers a scalable and cost-efficient solution for IoT patch management.
  • Incentivized P2P distribution via blockchain technology enhances the reliability and security of IoT updates.
  • The gradual release model fosters trust and addresses challenges in distributed content delivery.
