A Small Flood of Apps

ENTSHO, Resus Algorithms 2 and The DAS APP


This last week was pretty busy. I've released a new app, released a new and overhauled version of an app and released a teeny tiny update to another app.

ENTSHO

The entsho.com app is out now for Android and iOS. It's a collaborative production with entsho.com 

You can find it for download on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store now. 


This is "Stage 1" of the ENTSHO release - there are three guideline sections but only one is available at the moment. The other two will be released in the next few weeks, as staggered releases. Thereafter the app will updated to reflect the guidelines at entsho.com.

Resus Algorithms 2

The popular Resus Algorithms was getting pretty long in the tooth and, more importantly, was out of date. Resus Algorithms 2 has the Resus Council (UK) guidelines from 2015; the latest versions.

iResus is back from the ether and this time it's by the Resus Council. It's similar but different to Resus Algorithms 2 which retains the essential layout of the original Resus Algorithms (which now, sadly, exists only on my hard drive and the devices which still haven't updated). 

There is a new section on CPR and Defibrillation, and a CPR Recorder.

The CPR Recorder allows users to record the times of the Start of CPR, Shocks delivered and Adrenaline administered, with the facility to email a report of this timeline. It's on ongoing development and should be considered very much a beta version. Note: the recorder itself has NO facility for recording any patient information at all. No NHS number, no name, no age, not even gender. This is intentional. 

Get it here if you haven't already: 



The DAS App

Last but not least - The DAS App had a minor tweak last week. It was a bug fix that you'll likely not have noticed anyway, and the bug is gone now.


That's it for now. Watch this space for plenty of new soon though.

The Power Of Voting - DAS Ascot 2013

I administered the mobile phone voting system at the DAS Meeting 2013 at Ascot ( http://www.das.uk.com ) and I think all who attended agreed that this type of interactivity added a lot of flavour and stimulation to the discussion of the case presentations. These are some samples of the results. This first one is from a comparison between the expert panel, comprised of 7 members, and the audience, 140 of whom responded. Experts & The Audience This was a case regarding a large wound haematoma secondary to C-spine surgery. The haematoma was anterior to the larynx causing severe narrowing of the airway with stridor. Unfortunately I don't have the CT image from the presentation. Of the four options (and one "other") the expert panel was split between the two awake options on offer. The audience, whilst largely agreeing with the experts, gave a wider range of choices with a significant number of people opting for IV induction. Bear in mind - the audience d...
