***on Call survival guide***

****************
"If you have ever needed a quick reference to learn on the fly or been stumped by a late night call while cross-covering and you are willing to spend a few dollars to avoid that feeling, you should consider this app."

iphonemedicalappreview.com -- independent review. See support website for a direct link to the full review.

****************

"... Cutting to the chase, after all of my "on call" game experience if there is one thing that could have helped me more than anything it would have and now it is having this Application in the palm of my hand! I insist any one who works "on call" buy and use this FIVE STAR application, you'll never regret it for a second"

Emergency.doc, Canadian reviewer

****************
****************

FOR WHO?
residents (especially junior residents), interns and medical students

INTRO
In med school, we learn a lot about diseases and the basis for their management. However, we are traditionally less exposed to apparently easy problems like pain, nausea or hypokalemia. Those issues can be distressful to a patient and need to be assessed. Quite often, those issues are brought to the attention of the nursing staff in the evening. At that time, the treating team is away and you're on call, running all over the hospital.

MD on Call gives you tips on how to quickly assess and manage (acutely) common issues so you can go on assessing the next patient, or to your room to get some well deserved sleep.

****************

MD on call is divided into 5 sections:

◆Issues◆ 17 frequent on call situations

Agitation / Violence
Bleeding
Chest Pain
Constipation
Death (Pronouncing)
Decreased LOC
Dyspnea
Fever
Hypertension
Hypotension
Insomnia
Nausea / Vomiting
Pain
Palliation
Pneumonia
Seizure
Tachycardia

◆Labs◆ Common electrolytes abnormalities

Hypo Ca, K, Mg, Na, PO4, glycemia
Hyper Ca, K, Na, glycemia

All (Issues and Labs) presented in a concise and simple manner. Common medical abbreviations and acronyms are being used to lighten the text.
Every situation, or vignette, contains 5 sections:

-The Call: Questions to ask yourself or the nurse calling you to help you with your differential diagnosis.

-Overview: An overview of the subject with some interesting, meaningful facts

-Etiology: Possible etiologies

-Evaluation: Suggested investigations

-Management: Evidence-based when possible

-Overall: A recap and some suggestions

◆ECG◆ Normal and abnormal ECG values

◆Hardware◆ How to handle tubes and lines problems when on call

◆Search◆ Search using acronyms or keywords; English or French

****************

I plan on expanding the different situations presented in this App. Feedback is more than welcome : visit the website for more details
