Pros and cons of Shock Echo app for iPhone and iPad
Shock Echo app good for
Great APP !! Very straightforward.
Useful information, lots of videos, simple layout and easy to use. A must for all physicians using point of care ultrasound to assess acute patients.
Very logical, practical, patient-oriented algorithm. Good work. Highly recommended.
Critical care focused ultrasound decision scheme at its best for any physician, whether ER, Intensivist or Anesthesiologist in need of a comprehensive and rational clinical decision making tool. The best focused ultrasound course yet and finally available as a nice cool app.
Great App.
I had a case just yesterday where the app was a great help in comparing my US with the videos on the Shock Echo app.
I recommend it to anyone learnin or using POCUS.
Complete, yet concise and to the point
I really like the interface and the fact that the information is esay to obtain.
Fast execution even on my 3GS.
A great app that reflects just what the course is: excellent! It really can make a difference to your patient by making your more focused on your evaluation of shock and by integration the use of ultrasound, to get faster diagnosis.
5 thumbs up… (if i had that many!)
