A great way to work through these problems

This is a neat little app that does more than just "spit out" numbers, but actually walks the user through the process of figuring out acid/base disorders. Armed with and ABG and electrolyte panel, any clinician can figure out the disorders their patient has and generate a good differential as to the cause(s). Simple to use, straightforward, and uses a proven approach (both the Haber method and Winter's formula). Well done!
Love this app...

And I never write reviews, but as an internist, I think this app is soundly designed and helpful to learn the method of ABG analysis. Wonderful use of the Haber et al paper.

One of the best ABG evaluation apps! Goes through the step by step process in teaching how to eval ABG. Great for students/residents
Great calculator and an education tool

Yes it might be easier just to input the numbers and get the answers. Yet this app asks to think and do your own calculations in a multistep analysis. You can skip those and get the answer. It even gives you deferential diagnosis for the problems you face. I found that most people who give ABG apps low ratings tend not to understand the complexity of some ABG problems. This app starts by determining the primary problem. Then determines the preexisting respiratory and then metabolic conditions. Excellent and it is how you should do the math in your brain.
Excellent & thorough!

This is a great app to finding basic underlying problems for ABG's! I enjoy it. I am a new Respiratory Therapy student (I won't be able to use my phone or this app on clinicals) but I like that I can check my theories. Nice work. I get my studies from Egan's so my anion gaps are different then the apps.
Simple, Effective, Awesome!

There are so many different methods to interpret ABGs it can seem overwhelming when you are first learning. This app teaches a very simple yet effective method for working through the analysis. It will allow you to diagnose even the most complicated triple acid base disorders quickly. The best part is that it explains each step along the way so you can really learn to do the analysis on your own without help from the app. Very well done, highly recommend!
