Managing Dabigatran vs Opioid Conversion Calculator

The dabigatran App is designed for doctors to help them manage patients on the anticoagulant dabigatran. It will be useful to general practitioners, cardiologists, haematologists, neurologists, anaesthetists, emergency specialists and surgeons. In fact most clinicians will at some time have patients on anticoagulants and would find this App helpful. The Dabigatran App will help you • Select the right treatment for your patient. • Provide safe advice if bleeding occurs including information about Idarucizumab • Recommend when to stop treatment before surgery. • Provide recommendations for managing emergency surgery • Interpret coagulation results. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Features of the Dabigatran App Dose recommendation The Dabigatran App provides the correct dose for each indication with advice about possible dose changes in the presence of renal impairment Drug information Details of the common side-effects, potential drug interactions and basic pharmacology is immediately available. Managing bleeding Bleeding is a potential problem with any anticoagulant and can be complex to manage. The Dabigatran App provides advice about which treatments to use for both minor and major bleeding including when to use idarucizumab (Praxbind) Managing surgery A common question with any anticoagulant is how long should treatment be stopped before surgery? The Dabigatran App calculates a safe interval between stopping treatment and surgery by including renal function and the time since the last dose. It also offers advice for treatment prior to emergency surgery if the surgery cannot be delayed. Interpreting coagulation results Dabigatran prolongs several coagulation tests. The Dabigatran App combines the results of these tests to give an indication of the dabigtran plasma concentration. Referenced information All recommendations are linked to an information page which is appropriately referenced with links to the relevant publications. Website for feedback The Dabigatran App is linked to the Coagulation Conversation website to allow you to ask questions, provide feedback or even start a discussion. We welcome all feedback. ---------------------------------------------------------------- The advice is based on published reviews and guidelines. Extensive efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of the information however information may change for specific countries at short notice.

Opioid Conversion Calculator is built for health professionals who need a clear, efficient way to compare opioid doses and review the clinical context behind a conversion. Built by a pharmacist. CALCULATE AND COMPARE - Calculate total oral morphine equivalent (OME) across multiple opioids and routes: oral, parenteral, rectal, sublingual and transdermal. - See every converted dose at once, after applying a chosen Target OME percentage for incomplete cross-tolerance. - View conservative, rounded-down target and breakthrough dose suggestions. - See where a daily dose sits: the header warms from orange at 50 mg/day (CDC 2022) to red at 120 mg/day (Opioids Aware). Adjust the thresholds or turn the guide off. - Methadone uses its own dose-dependent model, and its results are clearly marked as not a starting dose. - Convert the same opioid between routes, such as oral and parenteral morphine, with the method and sources shown. EVERY RESULT, IN CONTEXT - Each result opens with the converted dose, then products, clinical information, breakthrough dosing and switching timing. - Read practice points alongside formulation-specific pharmacology, with links to the supporting sources. - Check when to start the new opioid when switching between patches, modified-release opioids and CSCI. Switching timing is also in the menu, free for everyone. - View official products and strengths for Australia, the United States, Germany, France and Spain, chosen independently from the app language. TAILOR THE WORKFLOW - Edit conversion factors and choose which opioids appear, with Pro. - Export and import settings when moving between devices, with Pro. - Works offline, including on first launch. - Use the app in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil) or Spanish. PRO ACCESS The calculator stays free: the combined OME and every converted dose need no account or purchase. Pro adds breakthrough dosing, switching timing, products and clinical information to every result, plus custom conversion factors, opioid visibility and settings transfer. Your first detailed results are free to try. Available plans, prices and any introductory offer are shown using the information supplied by the App Store before purchase. Purchases can be restored in the app. CLINICAL USE Equianalgesic conversions are estimates and do not replace clinical judgement. Consider incomplete cross-tolerance, patient factors, formulation, route, local guidance and monitoring when interpreting a result. Review the references and terms of use before using the calculator in clinical practice.
