Blinded Diagnostics Recent advancements in microfluidics and biosensor technology now means that we are able to identify, and provide delivery of, innovative technology to conduct over 120 different vital diagnostic tests and capture critical performance metrics for Phase 1-4 clinical research 2 programs. Our scope of business includes integral involvement in clinical trial protocol development and ascertaining that study objectives will be successfully supported by trial design. By utilizing the optimal selection of Point-of-Care Testing equipment, the pharmaceutical researchers that we work with can achieve overall cost and time savings. Furthermore, in studies involving study drug dose-adjustment based upon critical diagnostic information, the strategy that we construct provides a near-immediate delivery of the requisite key metrics, providing the ability to rapidly administer a dosage that is closely matched to the patient’s status. Through the use of proprietary methodologies, we can produce firmware encryption of the diagnostic output of the Point-of-Care Testing devices – so that the study physician is not obviously made aware of the patient’s specific diagnostic reading, and thus enabling the preservation of the integrity of the “double blinded” nature of specific clinical studies. This is the inspiration for our name “Blinded Diagnostics”. We are also working on an initiative to create a system to achieve secured electronic data transfer for all configurations of Point-of-Care Testing devices and all instances of Point-of-Care device deployment. This will reduce paperwork related data discrepancies and facilitate direct delivery of clinical site information into the Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system.

    Chrysler workers strike . 3 THE Draft opponents speak out . 7 Women & budget cuts . 12 A SOCIALIST NEWSWEEKLY PUBLISHED IN THE INTERESTS OF WORKING PEOPLE VOL. 46/NO. 36 OCTOBER 1, 1982 75CENTS U.S. shares Israeli guilt for massacre in Beirut Unarmed civilians gunned down in their homes, women and children rounded up and driven away in cattle trucks, wounded patients murdered in their hospital beds - the entire world has reacted with shock and anger at the appalling images of the massacre in West Beirut. Denying "any blame whatsoever" for the massacre, the Israeli government said that those charging it with compli­ city in the deed were leveling "a blood libel." But the Israeli cabinet formally ap­ proved the entry of the rightist forces into the Palestinian refugee camps. Is­ raeli troops escorted the killers to the place of their crime, backed them up with tanks, and lighted their way with EDITORIAL flares. Israeli cabinet ministers knew of the murderous rampage at least 24 hours before it ended. President Reagan said he was "hor­ rified" by the massacre. But the Israeli invasion of Lebanon was fully supported by Washington from the very beginning. The Israeli phosphorous bombs, clust­ er bombs, and high explosive shells that had caused nearly 50,000 casualties in Lebanon even before the latest massacre were all made in the USA. Palestinian woman and child flee refugee camp after word spread that Phalangist terrorists were returning. Again and again, in votes at the United Nations, the U.S. and Israeli del­ egates stood alone in defense of the inva­ sion.
