I will put in info for any given person, it’ll list all these tests in the A&B recommendation lists, which are “highly recommended”. Then I’ll scroll down to the D recommendation list, which is like “not recommended”. It’s the same exact list. No matter what variables I put in, and it’ll be different lists, but the highly & the not recommended lists are always identical. And the “I” list is the same about half the time. Idk what’s going on. It’s a joke.

This is a well functioning app that puts evidenced based recommendations literally in the hands of clinicians that they can use as they see patients throughout the day. I am so glad that the creators have put in the effort to make this app work so well.

Really great app, easy to use, color coded well, organized well. Simply put in patient details (age sex, height weight, etc) and get ALL the preventative recommendations!
