Latest reviews of MedLab Tutor app for iPhone and iPad
This is the coolest free app Ive ever seen! Ive completed my first year of the Med Lab program in Ontario and its so fun to test what Ive learned on mock patient results to practice seeing which results are out of range and what is possibly causing the results obtained. When I go back for second year Ill be telling my class to install this app.
Excellent reference tool for normal lab values and what common lab tests mean. I also like the quiz portion of the app to test my knowledge. Overall, this is great for me as I am a nursing student, and I would recommend it for other nursing students.
Please add more CMP interpretations! Thanks! Overall lovely app!
Hi, I love this app. Glad you added the blood gases to it, as well. I tried to email you (cant find a link to submit notes to!). The pO2 and HCO3 links are reversed. When you click on one you get the other. Something for the next update. Great job, just hard to get in touch with IT.
Its free information/review that any health care professional should download. Thanks!
