Code Ready Pro - Pediatric β€” the pediatric and neonatal code companion for trained emergency clinicians. When a child is crashing, you don't have time to page through a manual. Code Ready Pro - Pediatric puts the AHA PALS algorithms, the AAP/AHA Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP), the ENA ENPC trauma primary survey, and the high-yield pediatric emergencies into fast, guided, citation-tracked walkthroughs β€” fully offline, on the device already in your pocket. LIVE CODE RUNNER A manual timing aid for pediatric cardiac arrest: code clock, 2-minute CPR cycle timer with rhythm-check alerts, epinephrine due/overdue reminders, shock and dose counters, and a timestamped event log for your debrief. Shockable and non-shockable pathways side by side, with the H's & T's one tap away. GUIDED ALGORITHMS Step-by-step walkthroughs for bradycardia, tachycardia (SVT vs VT), post-ROSC care, neonatal resuscitation (the Golden Minute, MR. SOPA, 3:1 compressions), pediatric trauma (A-B-C-D-E), anaphylaxis, status asthmaticus, status epilepticus, DKA, and croup β€” each step labeled, sourced, and written for recall under pressure. PUBLISHED DOSING TABLES A consolidated dosing reference of published per-kilogram rules with adult-maximum caps, plus weight-band tables that lay out the published values for every Broselow color zone β€” exactly like a printed length-based tape or code card, with the per-kg rule and source shown on every row. The app accepts no patient data and computes nothing: every value is static published reference material to verify against your length tape, pharmacy, and protocol. BUILT FOR THE BEDSIDE 100% offline β€” no account, no network, nothing tracked Every dose, step, and alert cites its source: AHA PALS, AAP/AHA NRP, ENA ENPC, ILCOR No patient data stored, ever Interface localized in 9 languages (clinical content stays in English to match the source guidelines) FOR LICENSED PROFESSIONALS ONLY Code Ready Pro - Pediatric is an educational quick-reference, not a medical device. It provides no diagnosis, no individualized treatment advice, and no dose calculation, and it never replaces your certification, code-team leader, Medical Command, or pharmacy verification. A professional-use disclaimer must be accepted on first launch. From the maker of Code Ready Pro, and Anesthesia Ready.
