### 5/5 — Concise yet thorough and interactive learning tool!

*2021-02-18*

This makes the most important contents of the ESW manual accessible and easily navigable anytime anywhere. A super helpful tool for review/study, and a clear guide when managing less common scenarios such as anaphylaxis. Includes helpful reminders about prevention/preparation and documentation, and interactive (and referenced) links to related topics or detailed explanations of specific equipment set ups and emergency maneuvers. An excellent addition to the suite of AOM apps, looking forward to the content that will hopefully be added with future updates.
