Important: Critical Med is an educational study and reference tool. It does not provide diagnosis, treatment directives, or emergency services, and it is not a substitute for professional clinical judgment or facility protocols. ACLS study content supports personal exam preparation only; it is not AHA-accredited and does not grant a certification card.
I’ve had this app for years and use it often. From when I was flying, to my ER and ICU time and now in the cath lab. It’s a straight forward reference that has the info you want and quickly accessible without having to search through the app to find it. Visually it is easy to read and pick out what you need. Absolutely perfect app for emergency and ICU reference. It’s so smooth you can pull it up quickly in real time to if you just want to verify what you’re working on. Thank you so much for making this app and making it the way it should be. Keep up the amazing work.

I’ve been a full-time emt/Paramedic and a busy 911 system since 1995, and this app is one of my most used references in my pocket on duty and off. It always felt like most pocket guides from back in the day were geared more towards nursing and this app has everything an EMT/paramedic can use and reference as well as great nursing references and EMS type references. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone involved and emergency medical services whether you are with the ambulance company, fire department, emergency room, etc... you won’t be disappointed for the purchase.

I just got this. I wish I had access to this when I was working, retired RN( active license) still like many, love to keep current. Having done so much in a long career ( like my wife) I was a Nurse before men were in the field. This has pharmacy information ( was at UConn in pharmacy school) before I dropped my 1-A, with a low draft number. Medic, changed after to Nursing with my wife. This has a wealth of information. OB-GYN( first male RN) early, decelerations) Point is I’ve never seen so much in one spot except PDR, or Taber’s.

I’ve been using the app forever and it gets better all the time. I recommend it to everyone and wish it was shown to me many years ago! Started using it the heaviest when I first started working as a flight paramedic. Saved my bacon more than once.Single elements of Critical are done better than apps that revolve around just 1 of the dozens of things it can be used for. Keep making it great! Thanks for all you do.
THE BIGGEST UPDATE YET. BUILT ON THE REDESIGN — MORE TO USE ON SHIFT
The new Critical Med is live. This update adds the tools and polish we wanted next: a live vent monitor to practice on, a real night mode, and a tighter UI.
WHAT'S NEW
• Ventilator Studio — practice waveforms on a live monitor. Watch how stiff, obstructive, and combined lungs change the same breath. Home → Airway & Vent, or Ventilator Management → Practice
• Dark Mode — night-shift readable canvases, cards, and type
• Cleaner teaching pages and cards, with less chrome between you and the number
• Bug fixes — tap targets, sheets, and a pile of UI nits
EVERYTHING YOU RELY ON, STILL 100% OFFLINE
No account, no sign-in — every feature works without a signal, plus a fresh clinical brief each morning.
Thank you to everyone who sent feedback. This one's for you. If something looks off or you have ideas, we'd love to hear from you.
