palmEM AI: EM Quick Reference

Downloaded (from my past purchases) after long to use it again. To my surprise, it asked for subscription at every stage after asking me to sign up first. Even if I try to restore purchases, it is still shows the same thing over and over again. This needs to be fixed. Update: Sent them an email and they fixed access. Updating review to 4 stars. Still keeping one star as this migration should have been automatic and there might still be affected users.

Absolutely worth the money! As a Family Med doc in clinic, this is my one-stop shop for the occasional ED-type patient that somehow schedules an acute appt with me instead of going to an ED. It allows me to perform quick interventions while coordinating transfer. I’ve used it three times in the past month alone as a super quick bedside reference for calculating BSA for a burn patient, splinting a metacarpal fracture, and remembering the rules for clearing a C-spine collar. The info is very well organized and is limited to the pearls that we need to remember quickly in that moment. Shout out to Bret P. for recommending it.

It's useful but for me it is confusing. It seems more like a general overview rather than going in depth for each subject. There are categories, subcategories and details. For example: ABC's: Adult Quick Med List: Lidocane: mg/kg IV. Maybe it's because I'm not a doctor or nurse but I don't know what all the 'details' such as the Pulseless/Stable/May repeat VT/VF and such means. Seems like it would be a good resource for those in the medical field, however.
