Claims21
A method for operation of a medical device for diagnostics, analysis and therapeutics for treatment of disease, comprising:
- a set of layers of medical device components, a set of compartments for storage of chemicals and biologicals, a set of microfluidic components, including tubes, valves and gates, circuitry configured to control and connect device components, a lab-on-a-chip (LOC) component in a diagnostic module, an analytical module, including a database, for pathology modeling and therapeutic solution modeling and a therapeutic module comprised of a set of compartments, the method comprising;
- connecting the diagnostic, analytical and therapeutic modules with electrical interconnects;
- activating the diagnostics process of obtaining cell, DNA, RNA and/or protein samples from the patient;
- analyzing the cell, DNA, RNA and/or protein samples in the LOC of the diagnostic module;
- forwarding the LOC analysis data to the analytical module for modeling of the pathology;
- generating remedial solution options from the model in the analytical module;
- forwarding solution options for therapeutic recommendations;
- configuring the therapeutic module to release specific chemicals and/or biologicals from compartments on at least one of a set of layers through the micro fluidic components in specific measured doses according to the model recommendations;
- activating the therapeutic module to combine chemicals and/or biologicals;
- and
- configuring the therapeutic module to transmit the combination of chemicals and/or biologicals to a cell site in a patient to treat disorders.
