Evidence-Based Physical Diagnosis helps you choose the diagnostic approaches that have been proven most effective! Dr. Steven McGee puts the most current evidence at your fingertips, equipping you to easily select the best test for diagnosing a given condition and understand the diagnostic significance and accuracy of your findings. A remarkably easy-to-reference organization makes it simple to find the answers you need. Key features: • An evidence-based calculator that helps you determine probability ratios based on the evidence criteria. • Quickly review the history, pathogenesis, examination technique, and interpretation of physical findings for all areas of the body thanks to a very reader-friendly outline format, including more than 90 "EBM boxes" and accompanying "EBM ruler" illustrations. • Get expert advice from Dr. Steven McGee, an internationally respected authority in physical examination and assessment, pain management, and education in general internal medicine. • See exactly which studies document the significance of various findings thanks to thousands of up-to-date references. • Apply the latest knowledge on hot topics such as the value of physical examination in taking care of the ICU patient, accurately diagnosing the etiology of systolic murmurs, diagnosing osteoarthritis and acute vertigo in the dizzy patient, diagnosing hemorrhagic stroke, and diagnosing pleural effusions. • Implement the most current evidence-based approaches for evaluating stance and gait, Schamroth's sign (for clubbing), dementia, prediction of falls, hepatopulmonary syndrome, atrial fibrillation, relative bradycardia, tourniquet test (for dengue infections), acute stroke, and pleural effusion. • Assess the pretest probability of disease, given particular signs or symptoms, with new at-a-glance tables. • Make effective decisions thanks to updated content throughout, including new EBM boxes covering over 250 recent studies on physical diagnosis-ensuring that all diagnostic information (i.e., sensitivity, specificity, and likelihood ratios) is up to date. This app is very intuitive and easy to navigate, allowing you to browse the contents or search for topics. The powerful search tool gives you word suggestions that appear in the text as you type, so it is lightning fast and helps with spelling those long medical terms. The search tool also keeps a recent history of past search terms so you can go back to a previous search result very easily. You have the ability to create notes and bookmarks separately for text, images and tables to enhance your learning. You can also change the text size for easier reading. There is also an interactive EBM Calculator that allows you to calculate posttest probability based on pretest probability and likelihood ratio. After the app has been downloaded, no internet connection is needed to retrieve the content of the app. All of the text and images are available to you on your device anytime, anywhere, and lightning fast. This app is also automatically optimized for whatever size device you are currently using, either phone or tablet.

HemodynamicAID

Features
Read full description

The HemodynamicAID App is a free educational mobile application developed to teach medical professionals how to understand and apply the fundamental principles of coronary hemodynamics, including waveform interpretation, hyperemic and non-hyperemic pressure indices, the index of microvascular resistance (IMR), and their clinical applications in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. Developed at The Mount Sinai Hospital Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, HemodynamicAID provides structured modules, interactive quizzes, and real case examples designed to help techs, fellows, and early-career physicians who wish to strengthen their understanding of coronary physiology.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: HemodynamicAID at Free against Evidence's $54.99. Evidence's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
