Emergency NICU Drugs is a weight-based drug preparation and dosing tool for common neonatal intensive care emergency and infusion medications, spanning inotropes, vasoactive agents, sedatives, analgesics, diuretics, vasodilators, and prostaglandins. After the baby's weight is entered, it computes live drug and diluent volumes, final concentration, and an infusion-rate ladder for both STAT bolus drugs and continuous infusions. The tool offers a Smart View with step-by-step preparation instructions and a Table View for at-a-glance reference, plus a running-infusions tracker and a quick-access resuscitation drug sheet. It is presented as a preparation guide only — the app's own banner states every dose, concentration, and preparation should be verified with a senior clinician or pharmacist before administration.
It calculates weight-based preparation volumes and infusion rates once you enter the baby's weight, but the app's own disclaimer states it is a guide only and every dose, concentration, and preparation must be verified with a senior clinician or pharmacist before administration.
The tool covers inotropes, vasoactive agents, sedatives, analgesics, diuretics, vasodilators, and prostaglandins used in NICU emergencies and continuous infusions.
It lets clinicians increase the drug concentration in the syringe (½x to 4x), which the app's own tooltip describes as useful when fluid restriction is needed.
Yes — a dedicated STAT BOLUS module and a quick-access resuscitation sheet sit alongside the continuous-infusion calculator.
Yes, the tool includes a "Current Infusions" panel for logging and viewing a patient's active infusions.
