This app includes more than 50 drugs used in critical care unit such as ICU, CV-ICU, PCU, Telemetry, and other special care unit.
This app is designed for nurses and other medical care personnel who are responsible in the administration of critical care drugs. It is a tool for the medical personnel a way of double checking their calculation in the hope of preventing medication errors.
There was no intention of including the drops per minute in this drip calculator. These drugs are intended to be delivered via an IV pump because of the danger of it to cause harm if the drip rate are not regulated properly. However, for educational purposes and requests of the student nurses who have seen the app as part of the Smart Nurse bundle, the drip per minute calculation has been included here.
This app also include indications, standard and maximum dosages, titrations, contraindications, and nursing responsibilities or considerations during the course of administration of the drug.
If you already own Smart Nurse app, then there is no reason to buy this app. Drip Calculator is part of the Smart Nurse bundle.
Latest reviews of Drip Calculator app for iPhone and iPad
This app is not friendly use, foes not display the calculations properly, the results I guess are way to odd. There is no explanation how to use it properly. Bad design
Nice job on this app. Real bedside RNs will make good use of this calc. Simple and easy to use.
I opened the app and nothing is in there. No info about the drug, no trade name, nothing! Its a paid app, better fix it fast. Ill rate again once fixed.
Absolutely worthless! Dont buy. You can find a better app thats free.
Stupid me, did not read the review before buying this app. I opened and nothing is there, no info, no calculation, nothing. Its a useless app that I paid for.
