App no longer starts
Whenever the app is started, it stays stuck on a loading screen! It is now unusable.

Update ruined it
I usually don't write reviews but I hope the developers see this and fix the app. Pedi star was great; all the info at your fingertips, drugs and equipment. After the update it is now written for medical students, interns, or nurses who aren't used to dealing with sick patients. The meds are listed within algorithms and in giant categories. It's too unwieldly to use in an emergency or on the way to one. It has far too much basic information in the way of the real information. This basic information is not the kind needed when seeing a sick kids. It gets in the way and if that's the info you need, you don't need pedi stat, you need another doctor.

Really?!?!
I find it very frustrating that a medical program written by a doctor has the opportunity to identify yourself as a "physician", "nurse" or even a "dietician" but do not have the option of "nurse practitioner" or "physician assistant". Really?!?!

Wouldn’t recommend
I’m an ER doc. This app is not useful. Each topic is too compartmentalized. Not simple to find things you need.

No reversal doses
The updated app again does not include weight based dose for reversal (glyco and neo) which seems like a large omission for the app.
★★★★★ docDTD 3/16/2010 v0
Nice app, few too many steps
content is good...but it just seems to take too long to find what i need. too many steps...I stopped using it once I downloaded a different pedi app that had the info I needed in a better format.
