Regional Anesthesia Reference vs Anesthesiologists

Regional Anesthesia Reference provides a quick look at the anatomy, positioning, and techniques for placing regional nerve blocks under ultrasound guidance. This includes ultrasound images and anatomic descriptions, images of patient positioning, and videos of block placement. Current blocks include: Interscalene Supraclavicular Infraclavicular Axillary Femoral Adductor Canal Suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca TAP Rectus Sheath Sciatic (Popliteal) A local anesthetic drug calculator is also included for assistance with calculating maximum dosages and percent of max dose delivered for a given patient. This is a weight based calculator using dosages from Miller's Anesthesia or Morgan and Mikhail.

Anesthesiologist is designed to help quickly calculate adult and pediatric anesthesia related information. Useful for anesthesiologists, CRNA, ER and critical care physicians, as well as medical students, residents, and fellows. Drug dosing and airway management information is calculated on the basis of patient weight and age. The app is a work in progress; please see "What's new" for updates about included information.
