CalcuDos.com™ Prepares
for Next Production Release
Boise, Idaho - CalcuDos.com™ is preparing for the next production
release of its CalcuDos© real-time web-based antibiotic decision
support software. U.S. hospitals spend more
than several billion dollars per year on antibiotics. Optimal patient
dosing requires complex calculations using patient-specific and population
data. CalcuDos© provides decision support for healthcare providers
to aid their antibiotic dosing and selection based upon cost, sensitivity
data, and patient-specific data. CalcuDos.com™ is a web-based service
developed in the Java programming language, with assistance from CogniTech
Corporation.
Allan Salzberg, MD, PhD, CEO of CalcuDos.com™,
said, "Web-based technologies for real-time antibiotic decision,
such as CalcuDos©, should be able to provide healthcare organizations
with antibiotic savings in the neighborhood of 25%, while improving patient
outcomes." Jerome Soller, Ph.D., President/CEO of CogniTech Corporation
said, "The complexity of the expert knowledge and calculations conceived
by CalcuDos.com™ is complemented by an intuitive web-based user
interface. The software architecture of CalcuDos© will enable it
to integrate with other healthcare software."
