Medical Lab Tests App Reviews

Itll be better in french please... 5 stars ni French version!

Yes this is a very good application; I am from brasil and I live in Recife; I really liked it. I hoped that they will be keeping the updates coming and all… This is very important in the clinical setting… I was waiting for something like this to come out for a while now for the iphone. How ever they need to improve on a few things; one of them being that they are not doing the zooming; text is a little small… And also there is no accelerometer working for this app. So when you put it; tilt it sideways; there is not moving of the main screen sideways either… Well all in all I would day I would give it a 3/5… Claudio A.G.Monteiro Filho.

Great, the info is properly referenced, and appears to be accurate( from my background as a nursing student). Excellent organization, easy to access. Good for quick clinical reference.

This is a great application for situations where you need to run an uncommon test - It gives you all of the information about the test and its results as well as providing all the information on the common tests! I hope my residents.take a look at it as well.

Very nice for quick reference. I noticed someone asked about the d-dimer its located under enzymes & proteins instead of coagulation for some reason.

THis app is ok, but saying that it has hundreds of tests its a lie. It actually has 119 tests. I wouldve thought a bit more before paying $6, had I known that it only has this amount of tests. You can improve it though and then Ill give you a better feedback.

Update of this program only occurs rarely and the content is rather on the poor side for what a physician should know. This may be adequate for a nursing student but IMHO is insufficient for medical residents and practicing physicians.

Does not cover all laboratory tests. For instance, Hgb A1c is missing. Very limited for health professionals. Hardly any updates. I definitely do not recommend this application.

Havent found 1 lab test I have searched for

For the guy that mentioned HBA1C is not there I would maybe check again as I found it. Any common test which most health care proffesionals would order are within this app. Many docs would do well to review the material within this app and actually learn it. I doubt the more obscure tests like ca125 may be in here but there are more than enough of your routine tests to look up and some not so routine. Im a lab tech and this app is a fantastic reference to lab values as well as great explanations for the tests themselves. I did notice in the coag section that there is no D Dimer listed, which is another pretty standard test, maybe add that in an upgrade. I see ddimer has been added. Adding the colour of tube to draw for specific tests is a good idea. One caveat though is that not all labs use the same tube types mention so for those nurses using it to know which tube type to collect, follow your labs tube preferences as each instrument may be set up slightly different.

Conventional Canadian units are often missing. Also, the values given are often out of sync with other reference materials (eg. Toronto notes, Hamilton Regional Laboratory Medicine Program reference sheet).

Cette app. Semble vraiment très bien mais en français, elle serait vraiment très très intéressante. Please do it on french that Will be a genius app.

I have found this app to be very helpful in looking up various lab tests and values.

Paid for the app, now theyve gone freemium and want me to pay again to see basic tests like digoxin level, gentamicin level, urinary glucose etc. Not a classy move, and all things considered this app is getting replaced on my phone with one of the many alternatives.

My version is Newest. The explanation of total cholesterol is the same as the explanation of HDL cholesterol. I am disappointed at this issue. Of course, I am inetersted in such application, because it is usuful in my office, And then this issue is important. Please make changes.

This will be very helpful as a student in the clinical setting, good review of information, reference values, etc. and much easier to reference than textbook (lighter too:)). Only four stars because, especially for the price, it needs some procedure and patient care information... fasting / non fasting, collection information such as tube color, other special patient instructions, etc.

I also have noticed that some of the cardiac funtion tests are missing mainly the BNP unless I over looked. But from what I have seen so far it will be a good reference for work and study

Nice interface, and it has a lot of potential. Unfortunately the library is too thin to justify the expense. For $10 I expect a fairly complete set of labs. As an example: to test for HIT (heparin induced thrombocytopenia) the first draw is PF4 (platelet factor 4), a positive result is then followed by SRA (serotonin release assay). Neither of these tests are in here. I wonder how many other tests are missing.

Where are the test tubes, their colors, additives?? I hope u guys can do some updates! Is there anything out there for Phlebotomists??

Im a med student and this is a great, quick reference for relevant lab values. I highly recommend it!
