· Suction catheter size

Arrest Drugs
· Adrenaline (1:10 000) dose in mL
· Normal saline bolus volume

Vitals Reference
· Normal heart rate range
· Systolic blood pressure range
· Respiratory rate range

Weight input supports 3 to 33 kg. Age input uses the APLS formula (age + 4) x 2 as an estimated weight.

PRO FEATURES (one-time unlock)

CPR Metronome
110 bpm pacing with an automatic 2-minute cycle timer and audible alert. Keeps compression rate consistent and flags when it is time to switch compressor or reassess
rhythm.

Resus Log
Real-time timestamped event log for CPR cycles, pulse checks, drugs administered, defibrillation, and ROSC. Export a PDF aide-memoire after the event for debrief or
documentation.
