Pros and cons of Bedside EM app for iPhone and iPad

Bedside EM app good for

I am an internal medicine resident, but this app covers many of my often-sought algorithms and tables in a nicely organized manner. I also appreciate the integration with evidence based sources. Some sections look a little bare at the moment but i guess its early. Looking forward to future additions to the app!

Fantastic go-to summary app for emergency medicine residents! Contains many useful algorithms, doses and clinical decision rules. Great for teaching junior learners too! One stop shop for most of the important EM guidelines. Well done, keep it up!

Good references Well display and rapid acces Became an everyday consultation tools

This is my go-to EM app. The information is easy to find and very relevant. Definitely recommended.

Just had another resident download this app. It is so useful and easy to use!

Important clinical info in a quickly available format (which is important!)

Some bad moments

I m using this App in ER . It nice and handy . I want the developer to keep it updated and add new stuff .

Its not extremely comprehensive as it is mostly algorithm based, but it makes for a very easy-to-read and find type Interface. Now lose the ad banner and youll have five stars

Ive tried to use the app numerous times but it crashes every time. I havent been able to use it once.

This app cuts to the chase with a simple and clear interface allowing for rapid reference in high-pressure settings. Excellent for busy urban ED settings!

I downloaded this during one of its earlier iteration and it was good then, but as a result of all the updates and response to feedback, its gotten even better. Its on the very front screen of my iPhone since I use it that much. Absolute must-download for anyone in EM.

This was a great app prior to the update but it is even better now. Has an incredible amount of content while excluding useless info. Also it is well organized so that information can be referenced quickly and, so that it is not overwhelming to the user.
