App Profile: Pediatric Blood Pressure AAP

This app was developed and programmed by Gerson Rodríguez, a pediatric specialist. It is based on the following guidelines:
*Clinical Practice Guideline for Screening and Management of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents Pediatrics. 2017 Sep; 140(3): e20171904.
*Coulthard MG. Single blood pressure chart for children up to 13 years to improve the recognition of hypertension based on existing normative data. Arch Dis Child. 2020 Aug;105(8): 778-783.

Main Features:
It calculates blood pressure percentiles at all stages of childhood, from neonates to adolescents, taking into account factors such as sex, height, and age of the patient.

The results are presented in an intuitive way with color coding for each blood pressure percentile, including:
* Hypotension (Red)
* Normal Blood Pressure (Green)
* Elevated Blood Pressure (Orange)
* Stage I Hypertension (Orange)
* Stage II Hypertension (Red)

Additionally, it provides specific management recommendations for each condition and generates age-specific charts with clear thresholds to assist in making quick and accurate diagnoses when assessing blood pressure in the pediatric population.

This app is versatile, compatible with iPads and mobile devices, making it easy to use in any clinical setting.
