Ratings and Reviews
So much potential....but needs more timely updates
Must include recently updated guidelines to be more useful than a Google search -- at minimum a link to the journal page.
The very first guideline i looked for (NTM) linked to the archived 2007 version although the new guideline was published more than 4 months ago.
Conversely, the search function is VERY helpful since it retrieves references to a search term in multiple guidelines.
Clunky
App is very clunky and not super user-friendly (similar to ACC app). Good resource though..
Inappropriate Description of Glycopeptide Infusion Reaction
When looking through the antimicrobial tab and checking out Vancomycin, dalbavancin, and Oritavancin I was shocked to find that the infusion related reaction that can occur with these agents was titled “Red Man Syndrome” which is absurdly insensitive and inappropriate to the Native American population. I would strongly advice you all to re-word this adverse reaction.
