Great concept but with major issue

I love the concept and features. However, the app closes when I press any of the check marks under H’s & T’s. The clock does not keep going when it abruptly closes. The app also shut down when I pressed the end of the code. Not very reliable for recording purposes if it is going to keep unexpectedly closing and resetting.

Which device and iOS version are you using?

Fantastic App

This is a Godsend. When you’re running codes it helps everyone immeasurably to have an aid like this.

Make sure to take advantage of the app recording all the interventions you do. It makes documentation MUCH easier.

Simple and works..but something is missing..

Im an ER nurse . Wish this app had a few things .. like a drop down button/ red flag/ count down under cpr for “rhythm check”

Solid start

Need a wider time range for amiodarone. ACLS guidelines say you can give it every 4 minutes, yet the lowest you can set the amiodarone timer is 5 minutes. Also, need to be able to record the rhythms form the VT/VF and PEA tabs. Switching pages in a code is more tedious than it seems.

Good app but needs improvement

This is the first time I am writing a review for an app. I am a Medicine Resident and till now had trouble with managing CPR, rhythm check and Epi time. But I used this app during my last code, I felt very organized and it was easy to manage CPR and rhythm check times. My problem with the app is, the email option doesn’t work. Also, when I choose new session in VT/VE, it doesn’t reset the shock count to zero.
