Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound containing at least one N-oxo-N-nitrosoamine moiety in a molecule thereof, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 58 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound containing at least one N-oxo-N-nitrosoamine moiety in a molecule thereof, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 1, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered to the patient by intravenous injection.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 2, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered in an amount of 0.01 to 10.0 mg/kg/day.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 57 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound which is (C 2 H 5 ) 2 --N--N(ONa)--N═O, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 57 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound which is (C 2 H 5 ) 2 --N--N(ONa)--N═O, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 4, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered to the patient by intravenous injection.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 5, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered in an amount of 0.01 to 10.0 mg/kgday.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 55 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound which is spermine bis (nitric oxide) adduct, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 55 words
A method of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo, in a patient in need thereof, the method comprising: administering to the patient an effective platelet aggregation inhibiting amount of a physiologically compatible compound which is spermine bis (nitric oxide) adduct, wherein the physiologically compatible compound releases nitric oxide in vivo in a controllable and sustained fashion.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 18 words
The method of claim 7, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered to the patient by intravenous injection.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 8, wherein said physiologically compatible compound is administered in an amount of 0.01 to 10.0 mg/kg/day.
