*** This App will be your FIRST and ONLY assistant in emergency endotracheal intubations or Umbilical catheterization or other procedures like size selection for Chest tubes / Nasogastric tubes / Foley's catheter / Central venous catheters.
*** It will help you find the most appropriate tube or catheter size (and length) for your pediatric patient in nearly NO TIME.
*** It uses a simple but very effective method to make the selection process based on your patient weight or age really fast.
*** It's NO MORE needed to enter the weight by a keyboard.
*** Just DRAG that little white ring to reach the target weight or age.
*** The app uses strict calculations which were adapted from different trusted resources to make the size selection a VERY ACCURATE
*** You DO NOT HAVE TO MEMORIZE any weight or age based formulas. Firstly, they are not accurate enough. Secondly, who remembers all these formulas ?! was it age/2 or weight+12 !!
