Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
CatchUpSurg helps surgeons, surgical trainees, and other healthcare professionals stay current with recent surgical literature.
The app searches PubMed and Europe PMC every day across a carefully selected collection of leading surgical journals. Choose the topics, study designs, and journals relevant to you, and receive a personal overview of new articles.
With CatchUpSurg, you can:
• Review new surgical publications quickly
• Filter across surgical oncology, gastrointestinal surgery, trauma, vascular surgery, thoracic surgery, pediatric surgery, transplantation, endocrine surgery, and more
• Select study designs including RCTs, cohort studies, systematic reviews, and guidelines
• Open articles with a clear overview of objective, methods, results, clinical relevance, and limitations
• Read in Dutch, English, or Spanish
• Search by title, author, abstract, topic, study design, and journal
• Save relevant articles or remove them from your overview
• Receive notifications when new articles match your preferences
Summaries are based on the information available in the article and do not alter reported figures or outcomes. CatchUpSurg supports literature tracking. It does not replace reading the original publication or clinical decision-making.
