Method of managing pharmaceutical dosage
First Claim
1. A pharmaceutical monitoring and review system for transmitting medical data between a patient monitoring station and a central processing station and between the central processing station and one or more data enhancement stations over an integrated network the monitoring and review system comprising:
- a) a patient monitoring station comprising a diagnostic means for measuring patient physiological condition in response to the presence of at least one pharmaceutical composition, the diagnostic means collecting and transmitting medical data via an electronic link means to a central processing station;
b) a central processing station for receiving medical data from the diagnostic means;
the central processing station comprising an algorithm for analysis of the medical data and a data storage unit for the storage and retrieval of medical data;
the central processing station transmitting the analyzed data to the patient monitoring station and optionally to at least one data enhancement station; and
c) a data enhancement station comprising at least one computer to receive the analyzed medical data from one or more central processing stations;
the computer comparing the analyzed medical data received from the one or more central processing stations with prior generated data to generate enhanced data.

Abstract
A method is disclosed for the management of pharmaceutical dosage. The method involves transmitting medical data from a patient monitoring station via an electronic link to a centralized processing station where the data is analyzed and used to adjust pharmaceutical dosage which is provided to the patient in a personalized dosage delivery system. Optionally, analyzed data may be further enhanced at a data enhancement station where analyzed data from a multiplicity of central processing stations is accumulated and processed. Enhanced data may then be used to further refine the pharmaceutical dosage, alter the pharmaceutical being used, or develop new findings about the metabolic effects of the pharmaceutical.
