Peds PALS Dosage Scanner is the only app that measures the child and provides the weight, defibrillation levels, and equipment sizes - even if the weight of the child is unknown. The childs weight is usually not known in emergencies, and an unconscious or pulseless child cant be weighed.
You can stop guessing the childs weight during emergencies.
Peds PALS Scanner automatically gives you the defibrillation level and equipment sizes. The PALS algorithms are included to guide each step in the resuscitation.

When the child’s eight is unknown, the American Heart Association recommends that healthcare providers use a measuring device with precalculated doses. In a Journal of Emergency Medicine study, he weight range using the a tape was determined correctly by all participants, with 95% correctly reporting the correct dose of epinephrine (Vike, 2001).
Peds Dose Tape Calculator uses the latest height and weight measurements from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
