OB Wheels

Does the world need another OB-wheel-due-date-calculator app? You bet! OB Wheels combines three things that clinicians need to derive all the dates necessary in pregnancy care, and no other app has this combination.

It contains a calendar calculator to determine EDD (EDC) from LMP or from a sonogram report. The calendar calculator also provides gestational age (EGA) as of any date for a given EDD or LMP. Because the calculator works off the real calendar, it is accurate for leap years too.

Then for all of you who miss your cardboard OB wheel, the app contains one which you can rotate, pinch and zoom, and generally play with just like a regular cardboard wheel. It's a little tricky to learn how to plant two fingers and rotate them rather than pinch-and-zoom to get rotation versus resizing. But the wheel works and it is accurate, especially so because you can zoom in to be sure where the little date hash lines lie.

Finally, the app notes the most recent committee opinion scheme from ACOG on how one might reconcile due dates from LMP and sonograms to arrive at a single final EDD. To my knowledge, the scheme is authority-based and no better or worse than other schemes, but my practice and my learners need a single clear scheme, so this app includes one for easy reference.

Adakah dunia memerlukan satu lagi aplikasi OB roda kerana-tarikh-kalkulator? Anda buat taruhan! OB Wheels menggabungkan tiga perkara yang doktor perlu untuk memperolehi semua tarikh diperlukan dalam penjagaan kehamilan, dan tiada aplikasi lain mempunyai gabungan ini.

Ia mengandungi kalkulator kalendar untuk menentukan EDD (EDC) dari LMP atau dari laporan sonogram. Kalkulator kalendar juga menyediakan usia kandungan (EGA) pada mana-mana tarikh untuk EDD yang diberikan atau LMP. Kerana kalkulator bekerja di luar kalendar sebenar, ia adalah tepat untuk tahun lompat juga.

Kemudian untuk anda semua yang terlepas roda kadbod OB anda, aplikasi yang mengandungi salah satu yang anda boleh berputar, secubit dan zoom, dan secara amnya bermain dengan hanya seperti roda kadbod biasa. Ia sedikit sukar untuk belajar bagaimana untuk menanam dua jari dan berputar mereka daripada secubit-dan-zoom untuk mendapatkan putaran berbanding saiz semula. Tetapi kerja-kerja roda dan ia adalah tepat, lebih-lebih lagi kerana anda boleh mengezum masuk untuk memastikan di mana sedikit garisan tarikh hash berbohong.

Akhirnya, aplikasi itu menyatakan skim pendapat jawatankuasa yang paling baru-baru ini dari ACOG kepada bagaimana seseorang mungkin mendamaikan tarikh matang dari LMP dan sonograms untuk tiba di EDD akhir tunggal. Setahu saya, skim ini adalah berdasarkan kuasa dan tidak lebih baik atau lebih buruk daripada skim lain, tetapi amalan saya dan pelajar saya memerlukan skim jelas tunggal, jadi aplikasi ini termasuk satu untuk rujukan.

Sebagai pendidik dan doktor diri saya sendiri, saya berterima kasih untuk maklum balas. E-mel saya melalui e-mel kenalan di laman web saya.
