Pedi STAT for Negative User Reviews

✓ Wouldn’t recommendI’m an ER doc. This app is not useful. Each topic is too compartmentalized. Not simple to find things you need..PW ED MDVersion: 4.0

✓ Love the info! Dress it up dome more.The app works flawlessly. Just update it with retina support. Retina displays came out a year ago now, your still making money off this app at $2.99 on sale. Your programmer can afford to do an update. It's now THE only app on my phone without retina support which makes it the ugliest app on my phone. fix that and you'll get a 5 from me..PyronesVersion: 2.3

✓ Update ruined itI usually don't write reviews but I hope the developers see this and fix the app. Pedi star was great; all the info at your fingertips, drugs and equipment. After the update it is now written for medical students, interns, or nurses who aren't used to dealing with sick patients. The meds are listed within algorithms and in giant categories. It's too unwieldly to use in an emergency or on the way to one. It has far too much basic information in the way of the real information. This basic information is not the kind needed when seeing a sick kids. It gets in the way and if that's the info you need, you don't need pedi stat, you need another doctor..Red949Version: 3.1

✓ Pedi stat reviewI was recommended this app by a coworker. After briefly browsing through the app I encountered several medication spelling errors. I have to admit I find it hard to rely on an app that can't even spell med names correctly. Wish it were more trustworthy!.Rebecca_22Version: 3.1

✓ Could be betterIt is a nice reference and has some nice features. Would be a nice tool for the savvy new grad pedi nurse. I don't like the fact that the weight limit is 43kg. That is not useful when many patients are heavier than that. There are also many spelling errors too..PediatricRN4Version: 0

✓ Why change the icon???Why did you change the icon to that ugly purple thing? I was so used to seeing the colourful icon that I could find the App rapidly. Now I was wondering what happened to my app. When you need the information fast you don't have time to futz around looking for the App..DrNick2009Version: 4.0

✓ No Dark ModeThis update disables dark mode instead of supporting it properly. Edit— I think part of the problem is the developers are focusing their efforts on maintaining iOS 12 support, even though less than 7% of users are on iOS 12. That kind of thing uses a lot of coding and testing time that could be spent implementing modern features like Dark Mode..ChymotrpsinVersion: 4.1.2

✓ App no longer startsWhenever the app is started, it stays stuck on a loading screen! It is now unusable..None48483Version: 5.0.1

✓ No reversal dosesThe updated app again does not include weight based dose for reversal (glyco and neo) which seems like a large omission for the app..Wrkrb 2Version: 4.0

✓ Good start but could be better for non-USA usersPotentially 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..TrileneVersion: 0

✓ Slow to openOlder version was 5 stars, I could rely on it working 100% of the time. This latest version takes too long to open and requires good internet connectivity which isn’t always possible. Can no longer rely on it when I need it.._zil56Version: 5.0.2
