AHA PALS vs PALS Copilot

We continue to iterate based on real-time clinician feedback so that you will have the best experience providing life-saving care at the bedside. The AHA PALS app was developed by Harvard-trained physicians, in collaboration with the American Heart Association (AHA), to help fellow physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and emergency medical technicians (EMT) deliver the highest level of pediatric advanced life support (PALS) at the point-of-care. This project was inspired by the tremendous success of our AHA ACLS app, which has thousands of clinician users in over 180 countries. Importantly, real-time feedback from our clinician users continuously drives improvements in app design, features, and function. AHA PALS is the only app to have all content vetted by both the American Heart Association (AHA) science team (with license to use PALS content) and practicing Harvard-affiliated physicians. We owe it to our patients to use the best digital health tools to give them the highest chance of surviving acute life-threatening illnesses. To this end, we have developed an intuitive and rigorously vetted mobile app to assist healthcare clinicians—at any stage of training—navigate PALS at the bedside. You can purchase a yearly subscription which begins with a 3-day free trial. After completing the free trial, you will be charged for an annual subscription automatically. Features: - Intuitive design to rapidly access PALS pathways (i.e. cardiac arrest , tachycardia with pulse, bradycardia with pulse, post cardiac arrest care, and critical care references) - Includes all PALS content including drug therapy and dosing, reversible causes, etc. - Easy-to-read timers and ability to log rounds of CPR, epinephrine, and defibrillations. There are additional functionalities to log PALS Cardiac Arrest interventions beyond EPI, CPR , and shocks such as lidocaine and more. - We also added a new metronome feature to improve compression accuracy as well as a ROSC button. - Button within cardiac arrest algorithm that allows for rapid transition to post cardiac arrest care checklist once patient achieves ROSC - Relevant critical care references: (1) drugs used in PALS (i.e., medication names, indications, and doses); (2) vital signs in children; (3) pediatric color-coded length-based resuscitation tape (adapted from Breslow tape) ; (4) pediatric Glasgow Coma Scale - All content rigorously vetted by AHA science team and practicing Harvard-affiliated physicians - Regularly updated with the most up-to-date PALS content

PALS Copilot was designed by healthcare professionals for healthcare professionals. Pediatric code response can be a high stress situation and having a copilot to support quick decisions helps eliminate moments of uncertainty. Larger teams no longer need to tussle over who handles the pediatric emergency tape for medication dosing, and small teams can appreciate key features like timers to be alerted when additional doses are due. PALS Copilot takes Pediatric Advanced Life Support one step further in allowing for a patient specific weight to be used for automatic calculation of medication doses, shocks, and approximate equipment sizes. With straightforward displays and quick, user-friendly controls, PALS Copilot supports you and your team so you can focus on delivering the best patient care. Features: Weight based dosing options for patient specific medication dosing or color zones related to standard pediatric length-based tapes Automatically calculate medication doses and volumes for administration Timers with alerts to help track when additional medication doses or shocks are due Customizable drip concentrations to match your organizational standards Customizable notes for every medication or intervention to allow for your own key points and topics to remember Quick pounds to kilograms converter Additional content for RSI and post-ROSC fluids and medicated drips MEDICAL DISCLAIMER: This app is intended for informational purposes only, for use by professionals, and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
