Terrible App

This is really not an App! It is just a poor and incomplete "package" of the Pneumonia Guidelines. Not even well structured. No processing capabilities at all. Let's not confuse between "packaging" some info and publishing it as an App, and "a real" App.

Response from developer

All of my apps help clinicians find information needed to provide care. However, none provide answers. They are all educational. They help a clinician find answers and learn a thinking approach along the way.

Another awesome app

I have 2 other apps by Dr. Steinberg (ABG and Warfarin apps) and this one is right up there with them. Dr. Steinberg's apps are concise and to the point which what you need in a reference guide. I have found all 3 apps to be incredibly useful as I work towards my Nurse Practitioner certification.

Excellent

Great tool, thanks!

Great app for point of care pneumonia treatment. Quick and informative.

Very Handy!

I like this app. Very good. Recommend as great starting point for treatment of pneumonia. Great for resident and med. students. I will use as good check list when I see PNA patient.
