ABG Acid-Base eval App Reviews

Very good!

Great!

What a pity

It seems nice, but it doest work with iOS 8. Please fix it!

Very well done!

This app is very useful and clear. Can you update with a version using kPa instead of mmHg?

A great way to work through these problems

This is a neat little app that does more than just "spit out" numbers, but actually walks the user through the process of figuring out acid/base disorders. Armed with and ABG and electrolyte panel, any clinician can figure out the disorders their patient has and generate a good differential as to the cause(s). Simple to use, straightforward, and uses a proven approach (both the Haber method and Winters formula). Well done!

Love this app...

And I never write reviews, but as an internist, I think this app is soundly designed and helpful to learn the method of ABG analysis. Wonderful use of the Haber et al paper.

One of the best ABG evaluation apps! Goes through the step by step process in teaching how to eval ABG. Great for students/residents

Great calculator and an education tool

Yes it might be easier just to input the numbers and get the answers. Yet this app asks to think and do your own calculations in a multistep analysis. You can skip those and get the answer. It even gives you deferential diagnosis for the problems you face. I found that most people who give ABG apps low ratings tend not to understand the complexity of some ABG problems. This app starts by determining the primary problem. Then determines the preexisting respiratory and then metabolic conditions. Excellent and it is how you should do the math in your brain.

Excellent & thorough!

Great step-by-step evaluation of blood gases. Great for teaching residents on the fly! Thank you!

Wonderful app

Quick, user friendly and a very informative app! Strongly recommend it.

Awesome app!

Great step by step way to learn. Thanks!

This is a great app to finding basic underlying problems for ABGs! I enjoy it. I am a new Respiratory Therapy student (I wont be able to use my phone or this app on clinicals) but I like that I can check my theories. Nice work. I get my studies from Egans so my anion gaps are different then the apps.

Excellent

Must try

Simple, Effective, Awesome!

There are so many different methods to interpret ABGs it can seem overwhelming when you are first learning. This app teaches a very simple yet effective method for working through the analysis. It will allow you to diagnose even the most complicated triple acid base disorders quickly. The best part is that it explains each step along the way so you can really learn to do the analysis on your own without help from the app. Very well done, highly recommend!

AWFUL

This precludes the reality that you may have limited info ie pH PO2 PCO2. Would not have even give a star RNDAY

Great!

I love the step-to-step guidance to reach the results. Very intuitive app.

Excellent app

As a practicing RN working towards my Nurse Practitioner certification I find this app extremely useful. Working outside of a hospital over the last few years I found I was a little rusty on my ABG skills. This app is an excellent tool to supplement critical thinking skills.

Excellent App!

Great work, Josh! This app does a very good job explaining each step of the analysis. Great for people like me that are only getting intermittent exposure to this and need a refresher. Keep up the good work!

My most used ABG app

This app walks you through ABG interpretation and provides differential diagnosis. It can handle simple as well as more complex situations.

App A+

Great app for residents! Gives you the step by step. Highly recommend!

Best of all

Been using it on a daily basis. Really helps :)
