Personally, I wouldn't trust an "app" in CVICU. Calling the thoracic surgeon at 3am for something and they ask "where did you come up with that???" Uhhhh ....Call the pharmacist, ask an experienced nurse, or call the surgeon. Use an "app"? Never.
I have to admit; you have a good point. I still like to get information from different sources. For the last 6 years, Ive been working as a transplant/ICU nurse. But CVICU is a whole new world to me and I am quite nervous. I wouldn't depend on an app to manage my patient, but a quick reference of something couldn't hurt.

Hi fellow nurses:
Can you guys recommend any apps that I may find helpful for my new position as an CVICU nurse? I have the drip calculation one, but I want to add a few others that you guys have found to be helpful.
Thanks in Advance
