System And Method For Predicting Effectiveness of Animal Treatments

摘要

A computer-implemented method for determining an ideal treatment plan for a herd of animals includes the steps of testing a statistically significant sample individual animals of the herd for prevalence of a particular disease, collecting at least two animal parameters for each animal of the statistically significant sample, generating lab results determining the existence of the particular disease for each animal of the statistically significant sample, comparing the generated lab results against a database containing information on the particular disease for animals matching the at least two parameters collected from the statistically significant sample, and outputting an ideal herd treatment plan for the herd based on the results of the step of comparing.

1. A computer-implemented method for automatically generating an electronic veterinary feed directive for an animal based upon a diagnosis of the animal, comprising the steps of:
determining, within the computer, a diagnosis of the animal based upon test results received from a laboratory for at least one test of the animal; determining, within the computer, a plurality of possible treatment plans for the animal based upon information of the animal and the diagnosis; selecting, within the computer and from the plurality of treatment plans, an ideal treatment plan for the animal based upon the information of the animal, the test results, the diagnosis, and treatment results of previously followed treatment plans for animals having similar diagnosis, age, and production stage; and generating a veterinary feed directive based upon the ideal treatment plan.
