Killer apps.

Hey all,

- In the midst of job-interviewing over the past 2-3 days. Wow. The things that I've learned are scary.

- Anyways, I'm looking to beef up my Android with sweet EM apps. Who's got one that they can't live without ? Name away...

Have to promote WikEM, made by the Harbor-UCLA faculty and residents.
http://www.wikem.org/

It's free and a pretty solid resource.

I've found Pepid to be pretty all-inclusive, but it is very expensive. Medscape is a good, free general medicine app. There is also a nice EM Ultrasound app that isn't too expensive.

Love 10 Second EM for my iPhone (don't know if it's on Android).

 

[UnderwaterDoc]

I second PEPID, we get it from our residency and it is the bomb, I use it multiple times every day.

I second 10 Second EM. Very valuable. Last up date doubled the amount of solid info. And there is an Android version, though I use the iPhone.

Got WikEM and Medscape... I had Pepid when I was an intern/first part of second year and almost never used it because the interface was clumsy and it took faaaar too long to get to the data that I wanted.

Any others out there ?

Pedi STAT, it'll save your ass when a sick kid comes in.

Pepid/Epocrates/EMRA Abx on Android. That is all.

 

[Natatiap]

The medical apps I have on my phone are medscape (Drugs, Conditions), Epocrates (More drugs, Interaction checker, Pill ID, Calculators), Skyscape (Briefing of journal articles from your specialties of interest) and WikEM.

I checked out WikEM after this thread brought it to my attention. It lacks some ENT stuff. Nothing on epiglottitis for example.

How's the EMRA Abx for Android? The reviews are kind of ify.

Never had a problem with it - beats carrying around another book.

Cool. Thanks

Mediquations has almost every decision rule and other calculations you could ever want - from the PERC rule to the San Fracisco Syncope Rule to the stool osmolar gap.

 

[pinipig523]

I would like to add:

One night in the ED

It's a CT reading/review app. VERY cool.

Maybe I should be ashamed to say it, but I had no idea there was a stool osmolar gap. I learned something on SDN tonight...

Well...some things are more useful than others 🙂

I second "one night in the ED", but it's better on iPad.
