Comprehensive information on every emergency presentation you could encounter - from the more complicated DIC, to the more commonly encountered dystocia and blocked cat. Easily navigable - I especially like the toxicology section for quickly checking toxic doses which makes over the phone triage much quicker and easier when you’re busy with lots of patients. It’s been invaluable for dealing with my first Addisonian crises, DKAs and IMHAs. I’ve recommended it to all my colleagues (especially the new grads - pretty sure they all have the app now and use it almost daily when they’re on OOH shifts). Thanks so much for providing such a useful resource! **Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback. I really appreciate it. Really pleased you and your colleagues are finding the app useful. Shailen. ### 5/5 — Brilliant for general practice! *2017-09-16* Great to have all the info I need to hand in an emergency, would recommend. **Developer response:** Hi Bethan, Thanks for this rating and lovely review!
