Reviews
************************************

Among "The Best Drug Reference Apps for Emergency Physicians" - Emergency Physicians Monthly

5 STARS - "Simple interface provides rapid access to critical data needed when managing a critically ill pediatric patient"

5 Stars - "Very useful for treating kids in high pressure situations with precision."


*****************************

Pedi-STAT features include:

- Rapid results for airway interventions including endotracheal tube sizes, depth, intubation medication dosages, ventilator settings, and sedation

- Cardiac resuscitation data including weight specific dosages for resuscitation medications, cardioversion, and defibrillation

- Access to age and weight specific pediatric equipment including foley catheters, airway management, chest and NG tubes, peripheral and central line sizes, and more

- Seizure medication dosages

- Management of hypoglycemia including age specific dextrose concentrations

- Reference of age specific normal vital signs

- Procedural sedation dosages including single dose meds and infusions, as well as reversal agents

- Calculated pain management medications

- Medical management of allergic reactions and anaphylaxis

Users can quickly access critical information accurately, without having to rely on memory or cumbersome textbooks.

With just a few taps, users have access to all the necessary data to care for a pediatric patient in the emergent setting, including weight-based and age specific medication dosages and equipment sizes.

Since many of the patients present with minimal known information, all the results can be calculated rapidly with only a known age, date-of-birth, weight, length, or height. Simply enter the known variable and the data is instantly calculated.

Developed by an Emergency Physician, this app minimizes the risk of medical errors allowing the provider to spend more time caring for the patient, and less time looking up and calculating doses.

It is a critical companion for any physician, nurse, paramedic, or medical trainee involved in the care of critically ill pediatric patients.

Good start but could be better for non-USA users

Trilene on

Potentially useful app that calculates many emergency/urgent doses of drugs and fluids for children. It also gives normal ranges of vital signs at various ages - useful! If the child's weight is not known (which many carers do not) you can input age or height. Inputting weight, age or date of birth to calculate age is very easy. Overall the user interface is easy to use. Drug doses from height/length are calculated from the Broselow tape criteria. Weight is estimated using the (3x age)+7 formula - OK for the heavy (obese) USA population, and becoming increasingly more appropriate in Europe. However note that if your colleagues have used the still more common 2x(age+4), you'll get get slightly different answers. A problem for non-USA users is drug naming, a mixture of USA trade names and generic names. Narcan is understandable in the UK, but you might get blank looks if you prescribed 'Solumedrol'. Defining hypoglycaemia as a blood glucose of <50mg/dl is unhelpful where blood sugars are reported in mmol/l. 'Succhinylcholine' and 'nebulyzed' are spelling errors that suggest slightly sloppy proof reading. Overall I think this has good potential, but has not quite got there yet for those of us outside N America. So only 2 stars at present, but more for future versions I hope.
