Vet Infusions

This application is intended to help medical professionals in the Veterinary industry to check their work in creating CRIs for patients.

There are three categories of CRIs that are addressed in this app:Standard Infusions, Propofol infusion and insulin infusion. The standard infusions category covers twenty-seven of the most typically used drugs needed for most continuous rate infusions (CRIs). The propofol infusion section calculates propofol CRIs used in treatment of seizuring patients and in cases where propofol anesthesia is elected. The insulin infusion section is used to calculate insulin CRIs for treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis.

References for drug names and suggested dosage values are from Plumb’s Veterinary Drug Handbook, by Donald C. Plumb (for standard infusions and propofol CRI). 6th edition.
