Made for frontline responders in obstetric and emergency settings.
I really enjoyed this app. It is very user-friendly and provides concise but comprehensive information that will be useful in OB-related emergencies. I liked the risk factors and prevention steps, especially for those newer to L&D or in non-L&D settings. The mention of documentation points, team debriefs, and patient/family explanation is a great addition. Sometimes those steps get missed amidst the chaos, but they are important.
