Further work is required to; develop technology so that it incorporates the elements of feedback highlighted by this research; ensure the technology is robust, reliable and accurate; investigate the clinical utility of technology for home-based stroke rehabilitation, and the extent to which it might encourage utilisation by the end user.
Clearly, the information and clinical utility of technologies that provide discrete measurements of CO obtained from bolus thermodilution and those that offer continuous CO monitoring capabilities are different [ 6].
The clinical utility of this technology is broad for the treatment of aneurysms, extravasation, unstable atheromatous lesions, and recurrent in-stent restenosis.
With the impending clinical utility of CRISPR/Cas technology, complex ethical issues related to the regulation and management of the precise applications of human gene editing must be considered.
The clinical utility of CDC technology remains conjectural, but a phase 1 clinical trial with intra-coronary administration of autologous CDCs has begun, with evaluation of safety as the initial goal (CADUCEUS; see ClinicalTrials.gov).gov
What is the clinical utility of this technology?
We hypothesised that optimising cervical probe dimensions and standardising electrical frequencies at which studies are undertaken may facilitate the identification of any clinical utility for this technology.
Although available data support incorporation of GEP, particularly multigene assays, in specific clinical settings, the difficulty in the integration of the clinicopathologic variables with the molecular assays, the reproducibility and the cost limit the clinical utility of this technology.
Discussions regarding roadblocks and challenges in omics science that took place following the presented case studies are outlined below with a focus on three main areas - clinical utility, informatics, and technology.
Since the dramatic illustration of the clinical utility of microarray technology in patients with malignant disease 3 years ago, efforts to study mixed mononuclear cell populations in patients with autoimmune diseases have been remarkably successful.
