Highlights
  • GIR calculator (single or multiple drips)
  • Electrolyte calculator (single or multiple drips)
  • FENa calculator
  • Accurate calculations for neonates
  • Developed by a neonatal-perinatal fellow

NICU Fluids is a fast, clean set of calculators for clinicians managing intravenous fluids in neonates and children. Three tools, one tap apart. Electrolytes Enter the patient's weight, then add each drip with its dextrose, rate, NaCl, NaAcetate, and K. Results update as you type: GIR in mg/kg/min, total fluids in mL/kg/day, and sodium, chloride, acetate, and potassium in mEq/kg/day. Turn on calcium and magnesium for two more columns with gluconate and sulfate equivalents. Presets follow whichever field you're in, so NS, ½NS, ¼NS, and the acetate strengths are one tap away. Start with a single drip and add up to six. GIR A dedicated glucose infusion rate screen for when that's all you need. Up to eight drips, dextrose presets, and a solver that takes a target GIR and concentration and gives you the mL/hr, with the option to account for drips already running. FENa Enter serum and urine sodium and creatinine to get fractional excretion of sodium, with a plain-language interpretation. Switch between neonate and child/adult thresholds, since term neonates run higher at baseline, and see a reminder about diuretics and preterm variability. Also included -Results rounded to two decimal places, shown in blue so nothing reads as an abnormal flag -Light and dark themes, eight accent colors, fourteen font choices, and adjustable text size -No account, no ads, no data collection. Everything stays on your device. Formulas GIR (mg/kg/min) = Σ (% dextrose × mL/hr) ÷ (6 × weight in kg) Total fluids (mL/kg/day) = Σ mL/hr × 24 ÷ weight in kg Electrolyte (mEq/kg/day) = mEq/L × mL/hr × 24 ÷ 1000 ÷ weight in kg FENa (%) = (UNa × PCr) ÷ (PNa × UCr) × 100 NICU Fluids is a calculation aid for licensed healthcare professionals and does not replace clinical judgment, institutional protocols, or verification of orders.

The application organizes the clinical approach and allows users to: Perform the initial assessment using epidemiological criteria, clinical manifestations, associated conditions, warning signs, and criteria for severe dengue. Consult differential diagnoses of tropical diseases. Classify patients into groups A, B1, B2, or C. Consult general and individualized management plans. Guide fluid therapy according to the clinical group and the patient’s conditions. Record administered fluids, urine output, interventions, vasoactive agents, and blood products. Monitor clinical evolution. Access a clinical image gallery and regulatory documents. Create, search, import, and share clinical records. Includes multiple languages: Spanish, English, Italian, French, and Portuguese. DengueApp includes differentiated content for pediatric and adult patients and facilitates the structured identification of conditions that may modify monitoring or management.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: NICU Fluids at Free against DengueApp Pro's $2.99. NICU Fluids also leads on ratings volume (7 vs 1). DengueApp Pro's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
