WikiEM

Hey all,

I have WikiEM d-loaded on my android. I have no idea where I got it. Anyone have a link ?

At the bottom of the page:
Android: can download at Android App Market. Or, alternatively download the APK here.


Hope that helps.

Thank you !

Its W-I-K-E-M, not Wiki-EM.... that's where I screwed up.

This is a great app!

Awesome app. Love it. Question is: does it "need" a web connection to go fetch data from the source, or is the data mostly stored locally except for updates ?

The data is stored on your phone except for the occasional update.

That's impressive.

I do like the Emergency Physicians work together and collaborate nationally/internationally, you don't see this in most other specialties.

have any of you guys edited on wikem? I emailed them a few days ago and they were awesome about giving me a little tutorial. wanted to get some community feedback from you guys before I jump in. Awhile ago when i rotated at harbor they were all big into it but seems now the site is more evidence based

I've done it. They've got someone that oversees everything basically, but only edits you if you have glaring errors, factually or grammatically. They want you to stick to the format, which is easy. Just pick one that's already done, and then click "edit". That way you can see how it is coded. Copy, paster, and edit the on you're doing.
