Computer Diagnosis: The New Wonder In Alternative Medicine

With Dr. Amadi Godspower opening the Radionic Computer Lab Centre in Lagos, Nigerians are becoming more aware of the impacts computer diagnostics and electronic computer healing on the general healthcare delivery. The wonders of this development cannot be over-stressed. Let’s take a look at the scenario that gave birth to computer  diagnostics.

 Physicians and other health care professionals often prescribe medicines that will only work at certain levels.  These medicines – whether natural medicine or orthodox - are said to have a narrow therapeutic window.  This means that if the level of the medicine is too high or too low, it  may cause serious side effects or not provide the benefits it should.  For example, blood thinners are prescribed to thin the blood to prevent clots.  If the level is too high, people can bleed to death. On the other hand, if the level is too low, a clot could form and cause a stroke.  For these types of medicines, it is important that the right amount be prescribed.
Calculating and prescribing the right amount can be complicated and time-consuming for health care professionals.  Sometimes determining the right amount can take a long time since health professionals may not want to prescribe high doses of the medicine right away or sometimes they make mistakes. 
This is where the use of computers in diagnostics comes in. Several computer systems have been designed to do these calculations and assist health professionals to prescribe these types of medicines.
A review of studies that evaluated these computer systems showed that computerized advice for dosage can benefit both health professionals and patients. When using the computer system, health professionals prescribe higher doses of the medicines right away and the right amount of the medicine is reached quicker.  Using the computer system also reduces the length of time patients spend in the hospital while the right amount of the medicine is reached.
