Description of the application
Guidelines and protocols are important sources of information for medical specialists (in training) and medical students. By properly interpreting these resources, they provide the best care for their patients. Unfortunately, guidelines and protocols are often large, difficult-to-read documents, so finding specific content can be time-consuming. By interpreting the essence of these sources and modeling them in a user-friendly way, their use can relieve the caregiver. This benefits both the patient and the caregiver.
The ‘Orthopaedics’ app is intended for all healthcare providers involved in the care of patients within orthopedics and related specialties, including sports medicine and physiotherapy. This app contains interpretations of guidelines, including interactive flow charts and handy calculators, which can also be saved as a ‘favorite’.
The content of this app is checked monthly and updated when a guideline is revised. The app automatically keeps you informed of these new developments. This keeps you always up-to-date.
