The fact that this app mentions, AND EXPLAINS GASTRIC LAVAGE IS ENOUGH, for me to know I can trust this app! You’re getting GREAT info here! This app has improved SUBSTSNTIALLY, since I used it in 2014! VERY VERY GOOD!

I used to love this app, and frequently referenced it on shift. However, ever since the update, I have lost all of my bookmarks and notes that I have written. Some of the categories I simply cannot find anymore since it was re-organized. Mostly, it is very upsetting to have lost my personalized clinical notes that I have accumulated over the past 2 1/2 years.
