Abstract: An embodiment in accordance with the present invention provides a real-time dashboard for proving a user within a department of medicine with real-time information regarding availability and demand for hospital beds throughout a department of medicine. The dashboard can be used to track patients from a point of entry to occupation of a bed. The dashboard also tracks needs from different points of admission such as the emergency department. The user can view the status of beds and the data can be further segmented by a level of care needed by the patient. The needs and preferences of different departments within the main department of medicine can be integrated with the availability and demand information provided by the dashboard. An alert system can also be implemented using the dashboard in order to allow the user to identify bottlenecks in the placement of patients in appropriate hospital beds.

Abstract: The present invention relates, in general, to a pharmacologic system to modulate the biology of platelets based upon a nucleic acid ligand that can interact with and modulate the activity of platelet glycoprotein GPVI to regulate platelet function. These nucleic acid ligands are also actively reversible using a modulator that inhibits the activity of the nucleic acid ligand to neutralize this pharmacologic effect and thereby restore GPVI function, including collagen binding, platelet adhesion, collagen-induced platelet activation, and collagen-induced platelet aggregation. The invention further relates to compositions comprising the nucleic acid ligand, the ligand and a modulator, methods to generate the nucleic acid ligand and its modulator, as well as methods of using these agents and compositions in medical therapeutic and diagnostic procedures.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to pharmaceutical formulations of conjugated oligonucleotides, such as pegylated aptamers, as well as to a method of preparing and using the same. The pharmaceutical formulations have desirable shelf life characteristics under varied storage conditions. Formulations of oligonucleotides or oligonucleotides conjugates and methods for their preparation and use are provided having a shelf life of at least about 24 months or, more preferably, at least about 36 months at about 2 to about 30° C. In particular embodiments, the formulations have a pH of about 7 or less and contain methionine. Optionally, dissolved oxygen content is reduced during the manufacturing process is used to improve desired shelf life characteristics.
