APK for Windows version 3.5.16 is available. Highlights include:
- Added a point prediction tool.
- Improved the ‘Outlier’ message dialog.
- Added a goodness-of-fit indicator to the Bayesian results dialog.
- Improved the ‘Non-steady-state’ message dialog.
- Improved the serum level graph print-out.
- Updated the help file.
Point prediction tool
Provides serum level prediction at any point within the dosing regimen. I find this useful for timing off-schedule doses and for evaluating non-steady-state levels.
Improved outlier message
Added detail to the Bayesian outlier message. Here is the old message:
And here is the improved message:
Goodness-of-fit indicator
A goodness-of-fit indicator was added to the Bayesian results dialog. This parameter is used to evaluate the reliability of the serum level analysis. The following parameters are included in the test:
- Initial SS < 5
- Final SS < 0.5
- Final Vd SD < Model Vd SD
- Final Kel SD < Model Kel SD
- Predicted level = Measured level
If all 5 parameters are true, the measurement-to-model fit is excellent; 4/5 is a good fit; 3/5 is a fair fit; less than 3 is a poor fit.
Improved ‘Non-steady-state’ dialog
The previous dialog was wordy and vague:
The new dialog is simpler with clear choices:
