The ACLS and PALS algorythms are on Itunes. They are usefull. How usefull is up to you. I"m both an ACLS and PALS instructor so I can spout the algorythms in my sleep. I have it on my ipod so I can use it as a teaching tool as needed. I can't remember off the top of my head but I don't think they cost more than a couple of bucks.

I just added two more programs to my Ipod Touch.

1. Isheet
2. Inotes

Both programs integrate with google docs. I can put the comuents I"m working on into google docs and can upload and download seamlessly. With the keyboard as it is, I wouldn't want to type a lot, but I can ead and edit, or make short hand notes on what I need to change.

Hmm I should take this over to my own blog or something. Might be easier to keep a running list of the programs on my touch.

Havent' made much in the way of signigicant changes, but I've got tons of room left, for whatever I want. I do wish there was a flash player for it thought. I'm waiting for the iphone 3.0 update here this summer, cut and paste, yeah finally.

What’s on My Ipod?

Here's my current list.

Medical Applications
1. Epocrates – Got to love that pill identifier. I don’t use it for the dosing or anything, just the pill identifier. Def worth it’s price. FREE. 
2. Skyscape – I decided to go with Skyscape. I’ve used it forever on my palm and I like the way it all links t0gether. I’ve only got Davis drug guide & Archimedes running right now. I’m in the process of swapping stuff over.
3. ACLS & Pals algorithms
4. Perfect Wheel. I’m an ER nurse and spend a lot of time in Triage and I can never find the OB Wheel.
5. A couple of PubMed applications. _ I’m a grad student, there is always time to look up an article for future papers.
6. Eponyms
7. DxSaurus

Non Medical
1. Stanza – I like to read and it’s the best of the ebook readers out there rignt now. Still working out the bugs of converting other formats.
2. Loose It. I’m working on loosing weight.
3. Blog writers – still experimenting with the one I like the best. It’s harder to type a lot on the touch than on the palm.
4. Bible Reader with a couple different translations (added ESV Translation)
5. Google Tools
6. You Tube – great place for video’s on medicine as well as entertainment
7. Contacts
8. Calendar
9. Still looking for the ultimate todo /task list
10. quicksheets - can read all MS office documents and actually see my excel spread sheets.
11. Skype - Yes I can make internet phone calls
11. MBox mail - to sync my hotmail accounts
I tried and dropped isilo for now and just transfer all my stuff into stanza


Games
1. Bejewled
2. Blue Sky lite

Podcasts I listen to (I've added a ton more but that's a separate topic)

1. The Nursing Show
2. Emergency Nursing Today
3. Nurse Morning Coach
4. PHTLS
5. Surgery ICU

Just loaded PEPID onto my touch. I'll be playing with it over the next couple of days. It's a free trial and I've got till the 8th to play with it. Lots of info in there. I used an older version on the palm.

Can you please list the link/source of the programs you are using? And if possible, can you summarize each program what it does and examples of conditions you would use a specific program? Thanks, it'll be great information before I actually put time and money into these programs. I was looking at the nursing constellation plus package from skyscape and it has a good number of software included, davis and Archimedes are both included. Would you recommend the subscription for nursing students, or is free software more than enough to pass by school? I don't have an itouch yet, but thinking of getting a 32gb sometime by summer or so. Thanks in advance!

Hmm dont' want much do you?

All the programs are downloaded from itunes. You just do a search on itunes and there they are. Give me a day or two to come up with a complete final list here. Although i may post it to blog instead of here. I'm looking for a better way to post the list so I don't have to retype it every time i make a change.

this is a great thread, i been researching phones for like a week and a half, i was going to go with the storm but this thread, have everything i want. My question is can i get these same things if i get the IPHONE3G? as in epocrates and skycrape features. i just rather have a phone access. ALL i need is a good Medication guide which i think i will use epocrates for, access to the internet to get to sites for diagnostic and treatments, fast speed to access information quickly, and a good daily/weekly planner. PLEASE ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS, i would really appreciate it, thanks.
