The role of therapeutic Drug Monitoring
Is it the right dosage? Perhaps you have also asked yourself this question when it comes to taking your medication? Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) plays a crucial role in ensuring the effectiveness and safety of certain medications that have a narrow therapeutic range. The primary goal of TDM is to tailor the individual dosage to each patient's specific needs.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Part 2 - Breath Analysis potential for OSA
Chronic lack of sleep affects metabolic function and overall performance and health. In Part 1 of this OSA series, we touched on how metabolism is regulated during sleep. Now in Part 2, we explore how can breath analysis has the potential to help with sleep disorders such as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Part 1 - Metabolism during sleep
Sleep and metabolism are closely intertwined, and healthy sleep habits support proper metabolic function and maintain overall health. So what happens to our metabolism during sleep and how can breath analysis help with sleep disorders such as Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)?
Lung cancer breath analysis Part2
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide - not because of its aggressive biology, but because it is often detected too late. In the second part of our lung cancer series, we give an overview about different technologies that have been found useful for lung cancer detection and monitoring.
The role of therapeutic drug monitoring in managing epilepsy
If you are living with epilepsy, or are close to somebody who is, you will be all too aware of the importance of antiseizure medications (ASMs) in stabilizing the condition and preventing future seizures.
10 Tips for a happy and healthy life with epilepsy
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by abnormal brain activity that causes seizures – a burst of uncontrolled electrical activity between nerve cells.
Lung cancer breath analysis Part1
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. The reason is not its aggressive biology but late-stage detection. Most lung cancer patients show genetic and metabolic aberrations represented by biological messengers (putative biomarkers). But can breath analysis reveal clues to lung cancer?
Achieving seizure free in epilepsy
The primary goal of epilepsy treatment is to provide complete seizure control for people living with the disease. According to epidemiological studies, the majority of people living with epilepsy can achieve complete seizure control with drug treatment.
Therapeutic drug monitoring in exhaled breath
Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is essential for personalized healthcare and modern therapy management. Drugs are predominantly measured in plasma, serum, or urine. Monitoring of drugs through breath has not received much attention so far, even though it offers many advantages over conventional approaches.
