Method for screening patients to predict which patients at risk of a medical disorder, such as morbid obesity, gastrointestinal problems, or gastroesophageal problems, will be responders, and conversely, which patients will not, to achieve a favorable outcome from therapy for that disorder. This method supports an intervention strategy for patients having weight or gastrointestinal problems that will cut health costs. It enables patients and care-givers alike to more efficiently use their time, efforts and resources by enabling an early selection of an appropriate treatment modality for a given patient. Its application also extends to other implantable medical devices and therapies using them.

An apparatus and computerized method of intravenously monitoring a patient's blood chemistry transmits real time measurements to an electronically controlled closed loop system that auto-regulates blood osmolality and glucose level with medications infused through a catheter designed for such purpose. The closed loop system utilizes a glucose algorithm and an osmolality algorithm implemented in hardware and software to control the flow of dextrose, insulin and hypertonic saline to a patient in an effort to achieve better patient outcomes in instances of trauma, surgery and medical illnesses.

A muscle rehabilitation training device for patients with neurological diseases, comprising a base, a hand-pulled handle and a toggle slot that are distributed on the base in the same direction, and a recovery training position is formed between the hand-pulled handle and the toggle slot, and the base is located on the base. There is also a hand resistance mechanism for providing sliding resistance for the hand-pulled handle and an elbow resistance mechanism for providing sliding resistance for the toggle slot. The present invention is used to reduce the risk of injury, especially muscle strain, of a patient during muscle rehabilitation training.

The invention discloses a lower limb rehabilitation training device for children internal medicine diseases. The lower limb rehabilitation training device comprises a bathtub, a PLC and a wireless control device are mounted on the side face of the bathtub respectively, a heating device, a pedaling trainer and a water spraying device are mounted on the inner side of the bathtub, a balance testing device is mounted on the pedaling trainer, and the input end of the PLC is electrically connected with the output end of an external power source. The lower limb rehabilitation training device is wirelessly controlled through the wireless control device, thereby being high in intelligence level and convenient to control; water in the bathtub is heated through the heating device, so that using comfort of the lower limb rehabilitation training device is improved greatly; the water in the bathtub is circulated through the water spraying device to have friction with skin of a patient so as to promote blood circulation of the patient, so that training effect of the lower limb rehabilitation training device is improved greatly.
