Terrible

No way of studying based on type, or even specialty. Most of the buttons don’t even click other than 4 on the bottom. The only quiz is just all 384 cards at once. So bad

Rubbish search function

I type in “Mayo” , no results
🤣

Bad

Trash, does not have all the instruments

App Crashes

The app continuously crashes when you try going to the “Quiz” or “Flashcard” tab, which is extremely inconvenient that I can not access those two tabs.

The app closes itself out

Anytime you want to do a quiz or the flash cards, as soon as you click the icon, the app closes out. I gave it two stars because it does have a lot of instruments. However I mainly bought the app for the random quizzes and easy to use flash cards. Which doesn’t work.

Excellent!

Response from developer

Thank You, We are very delighted to know that Surgical Instrumentation has met your needs. Thanks Again, Surgical Instrumentation Team

Great but

It’s a good app but it’s missing types of sutures. I would request the developers to please add these too.

Perhaps good database, not able to explore it (Now fixed)

I bought the app because of the good reviews, seemed like a good database, but I was not able to explore it because it freezes and closes not being able to pass letter B of the index. Either the developers do something about it or don't buy it, would be useless

Edited: much better after the last update, thanks for fixing the issue, keep up the good work

Not organized

I can not organize the items by group so I can study
The app allows you to search by name or type but not much else
Not very useful keep searching for another app
Additionally you can’t organize your quizzes or flash cards by categories

This app would have 5 stars if...

...If the instruments were divided by subject. Example: General surgery, OB-GYN,Eye etc.
It would be a lot easier to navigate and easier to focus on what we need to learn.
Other than that is is a solid app and a great resource.

Excellent!

I’m very happy to see the developers read my review and fixed the scrolling lag. There is so much information in this one app, not only do they have a ton of instruments, there are quizzes, flash cards, and A TON of info on all departments within sterile processing. Definitely a 5 star app and worth the money! Plus, if they keep updating with more instruments then it’s a great investment. Very happy. Thank you :)

missing a lot of instruments

i bought this app to help more with the more harder trays working in SPD & it has none of the instruments that i’m looking up. different hospitals go by different names & if i’m purchasing this app to look up instruments i need help on, i would assume all names of each instrument would be listed. because clearly i’m unsure of what the instrument is, so how would i know its proper name.

Add filter options please.

App is good for instrumentation learning images are high quality with a nice detailed caption. Two features that would really make this a 5 star app would be.

A filter option. Clamps/Forceps/Retractors. Etc..

A second filter option by cases! I feel this feature is a must need.

Not downloading

I get to about 30% completion on wifi and it just stops downloading indefinitely. I deleted and retry with the same results.

Not enough instrument

Missing a lot of instruments their alias and uses 1 star

Ok.

The description for inspection still has sample text instead of an actual description, and I wish the tests were shuffled each time they're accessed so users don't have to answer the same questions repeatedly. So far the instrument list seems pretty well made though.
