KidNorm app for iPhone and iPad
Developer: Phoenix MedCreations
First release : 21 Dec 2009
App size: 5.8 Mb
Designed for medical professionals (as well as for parents and grandparents) as one of the most complete references for pediatric care, this application covers many topic areas including developmental milestones, dental development, pediatric laboratory values, vaccination, and pediatric vital signs and equipment sizes. It is the only app which covers developmental milestones including growth and sleep pattern from 1 month of age to 18 years old as well as primary and secondary teeth development. In addition to pediatric vital signs, it also covers medical equipment, such as suction tube and intubation blade size for all pediatric ages. This app is used as reference by both medical schools and various medical institutions.
The application is designed to answer the following questions:
What age does the first tooth appear?
What are the developmental milestones for a 6 month or 16 year old?
What is the normal heart rate for 2 months?
Do you need to know the normal hemoglobin value for 1 month old or 12 month old?
Do you need to know the normal sleep pattern of any age child?
Well this application has it all. As an added bonus, all CDC vaccination schedules are included (pediatric ages, catch-up schedules, and adults). The vaccination schedules are in various formats to meet all your needs.
For parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and any caregiver of children, this application can help you answer the most important question – “Is my child/grandchild developing normally?” No matter how good and smart your doctors and pediatricians are, they will never know your child as well as you. This application will allow you to pick up nuances or abnormalities that your doctor might not be aware of it. By bringing anything you feel that is “wrong” to your doctor, you can help your doctor diagnose and properly treat many childhood problems. One of the most important key to any medical problem is early detection.
A must-have application for all – from students (medical students and nursing students), practicing physicians and nurses and anyone taking the USLME to parents and grandparents and any caregiver dealing with kids.
Latest reviews of KidNorm app for iPhone and iPad
This is a very basic app with very poorly interfaced data- its all just a page with typed info- not searchable, and certainly not specific enough for viral signs to address differences in gender, height, and age. Not with the money and recommend you pass on this.
Bought this today, great idea for an app but crashes every time I try to open it. Using iOS 7 and iPhone 5s so it may need an update but entire waste of money to me!!
Ok information but bad presentation. Looks like isilo. Only text - no growth chart. Shame on the people that want money for this!
The screen shot and description would imply a interactive program for growth norms .. This is just a rather generi list of devlopmental norms that you can find in any basic reference - with a nice picture on loading. Are any medical professionals reviewing these items before they are placed on the store? How but making something pediatrcians can really use.
Just finished my 3rd year of residency. This is the best app reference on my iPhone! Please provide more graphs in addition to tables. Tables are great and I have not found any difference from the references so far. Great resource to have in hand. Despite some negative reviews from high expectations people, its worth every penny. The app cost me less then I would spent on paper printing all the materials. More references in next versions please. I personally would like to see more materials from AAP Red Book and dermatology. Recommend to parents as pocket reference instead of piles of books. Wish list for next version: over the counter drug store baby medicine list. Good job on small fonts and convenient method to bookmark any page! Allows me to find my tables within seconds.
