DrugDoses
For more than 25 years, Frank Shann’s little booklet has helped physicians all around the world prescribe drugs to children. DrugDoses now contains more than 2050 entries. It lists every drug commonly prescribed for systemic use in both adults and children.
Five years ago, we have released a PDA version of Frank Shann's booklet, and we are happy to be able to offer your the new iPhone version!
The iPhone version of the booklet gives you an enormous amount of information, which will be updated every 6 months! You will therefore always have the latest drugs, which will only be available in the paper version in a year or two! Your license entitles you to a two-year period of updates. And it's simple to renew your license, at the end of the 2-year period, thanks to our In-App store.
The iPhone version has also lots of other features: more than 150 current laboratory values, a useful cardiology database and a calculator that will help you give the correct resuscitation doses when you are coding a child.
DrugDoses now also integrates PedCalc. It contains the most common pediatric scores and formulas:
- ASA score
- Alveolo-arterial gradient
- Anion gap
- Apgar score
- Blunt abdominal trauma score
- Body mass index
- Body surface area
- Corrected Ca*
- Creatinine clearance - measured
- Creatinine clearance - estimated
- Endotracheal tube sizes
- FeNa
- Genta dosing*
- Glasgow Coma Score
- Glasgow Outcome Scale
- Maintenance fluids
- Mallampati
- NACA score
- Neonatal central lines
- Oxygen index
- PaO2/FiO2 ratio*
- Parkland formula*
- Pediatric trauma score
- Predicted height
- Predicted spirometry values
- QTc
- Tubular phosphate reabsorption
- Vanco dosing*
* These calculations are available via an In-App bundle
