Great when it works

Very helpful when it does work. Every time IOS does an update the app doesn’t function for a week or so.

It doesn’t do anything.

No list of drugs , no protocols were found. The whole thing is empty!!
Had an earlier version on my other phone that worked well. This new version is completely empty.

Response from developer

I am very sorry about the bad experience you had with the Dog & Cat Anaesthesia App whilst we had a technical problem. Please accept our apologies and thanks for your patience whilst we have restored the app. We have used this opportunity to update the content of the app and make the interface much easier to use. Following feedback from vets and nurses, we have added additional protocols and molecule information and included the AVA Safer Anaesthesia guidelines. Also, now you can select the molecules you want to use within each protocol as you go along. I hope that you will try our updated app and it will provide you with useful educational information to support your anaesthesia practice.
