Description
EMERGENCY DRUG DOSES AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
The Doctor’s Bag is a free app designed to support health professionals during emergency situations.
This app supports a health professional’s clinical knowledge in an emergency. It acts as an emergency backup, providing reassurance that the correct dose is administered. It can also be used as an educational tool in non-emergency settings, as the information is kept up to date.
The Doctor’s Bag module provides recommended doses for drugs in the PBS Prescriber Bag, including adrenaline doses for anaphylaxis and calculators for weight-based dosing in children.
The Anaphylaxis Management module is based on the popular Anaphylaxis: emergency management for health professionals wall chart published by Australian Prescriber. Please note that the “Call 000” function in Step 3 of this module will not work on iPad or iPod.
The Doctor’s Bag app is provided by Australian Prescriber, a trusted and reliable source of information for prescribing health professionals.
What’s New
Version 2.3
This version updates the Anaphylaxis Management component, reflecting the latest advice on positioning of patients, and use of different-sized autoinjectors.
Ratings and Reviews
COVID UPDATE
Will this App get updated to include the Covid anti-virals (Lagevrio & Paxlovid)? Now provided on PBS emergency drugs.
Should it also include newer drugs that would be considered appropriate to have available even though the PBS does not include them?
A really well designed app
This app is really well thought out and deserves more love! I keep it in my back pocket cor emergencies because I know I’ll be able to genuinely rely on it. Thanks to the devs for focusing on such a quick UX. I hope this project is maintained.
