Great app!!
I have accessed this app for my clinical care plans and during clinicals for info. I love it! Well written and organized. I haven't had to put it on a new device but it still has provided a great resource for clinicals.

Don't Buy
I never write reviews but this app irritated me enough to waste my time and write a review. I purchased this app on an iPhone 6 that quit working. I purchased a new iPhone 6 and restored from a backup made on the other iPhone. This app no longer works because I changed devices. Support said I have to purchase another subscription because I let it run out on another device. I will never buy anything from unbound again.

Not worth the$
Bought this when I was a student in hopes that it would help me specially during clinicals but came to realize it was a waste of money. Spent about 240$ at the time (now around 100) But still not worth it. Don't waste your money.
Even if you buy, it's not a one time purchase because they will require you to renew annually for 100$ !!!
2015-03-13
Expensive
Great resources for students, but out of range for mist due to price.
2014-12-18
Overpriced
Charges renewals when you change your device despite being at the top of the market for anesthesia related apps. Journal article access no different than using Google from what I can tell. Often updates when opened, seriously limiting its usefulness when time is short. Now have removed the most valuable part by replacing the manual of anesthesia practice with the mass general guide, so no more succinct information for cases or conditions. Do not buy.

Crna
This app is not worth the price without The Manual of Anesthesia.
2014-06-15
Not worth steep $169 price tag
I have $20 textbooks that cover more information that this App.
I can google surgical cases that this App doesn’t contain.
I got this app so I could setup for cases as an SRNA
Clearly not a positive for this app

Best program ever for anesthesia
Best program ever for anesthesia

Extremely helpful!
This app has been extremely helpful to me during my clinicals. Especially the Davis drug guide. I plan on using this app as long as it is available.

SNRA
This app is worth the $150 price tag. It's nice to have one source for drugs, procedures and labs. It's a great quick reference for students.
2013-01-02
Great but sometimes missing important info
I would give this app 5 stars if it allowed notes to be added. This way if important info is missing on a certain topic or drug the user can add a bit here and there & truly have an invaluable clinical resource.

GasAttack
NOT WORTH $150. I wouldn't pay $50 for this app. Incomplete information on co-existing diseases. Drug section is mediocre.

Excellent program! Best anesthesia app !
2012-08-25
SRNA
Great app that gives me a great deal of information in one place and lets me look up significant surgical aspects and anesthetic considerations quickly.
2012-06-15
Fantastic App!
Gives me much information in one place.

CRNA
This a great and concise app. Puts many things in one app. Great for SRNAs and Residents
2012-04-23
CRNA
Great app! I recommend it to all of the SRNAs, and most practicing CRNAs that see it want to buy it. It is pricey, as are updates, but if you are a student or new practitioner, it's a great resource to have at your fingertips. The addition of pictures for the procedures section would be great.

Bedside info
I like having information at the bedside when a question comes up. I am still getting use to how it works traveling in & out of each reference. Need to use it more to rate it higher.

This app is the bomb! Pricey but worth every penny!

Excellent but four strata because of high price
2011-09-06
Have to repay full price anually
These guys have always been so greedy. Many other anesthesia text aps don't make you repay the entire cover price for updates every 12 months. It is good info but navigation isnt great and other options are just as good. Look elsewhere.

Practical, easy access , quick reference worth every penny.

Wonderful App!!
I am a SRNA, I find this app great to look up drugs and procedures before a case, especially if I have never done the case before, it is highly recommended!!!
2011-07-21
CRNA
Great App!
2011-07-15
Useful Point of Care App
better than three books in your pocket :-)
2011-06-29
Johnson, SRNA
The consensus is that the app is pricey! I use it daily for the drug guide and looking up specific considerations. The only thing I think would improve it is a more comprehensive procedures list. Sometimes it is hard to find a particular type of case, with general headings of the cases you do. All-in-all, a good reference, though. I have recommended it to several fellow students . . . but only if it doesn't take the money needed to keep the coffee pot full of strong java! :)

CRNA
Absolutely essential stuff. I have used Anesthesia essentials for all most 2 years now both as a student and now as a practicing CRNA. The addition of key word search this year makes the program even easier to use. It's equivalent to a book sack full of anesthesia books all in your pocket.
2011-06-15
Great App
I use this app all the time, both while studying and in the clinical setting. Having lots of useful information at my fingertips eliminates the need to carry around tons of reference books!
2011-02-22
Comprehensive for my needs
Device: iPhone 4 (Verizon)
I'm very pleased with this app. I really only wanted a drug guide on my device, but I realized that having a more compact [than textbook] reference would be more handy and less cumbersome while in my small anesthesia workspace (I'm a newbie CRNA). I've used both Davis and Sota drug guides on my Palm for many years, but when I saw what Anesthesia Central had to offer when compared to Skyscape's Anesthesia Constellation, it fit the bill. No more separate ACLS app, no more separate procedures app, no more separate diagnostic tests app, etc. I've yet to put it through its paces if given an opportunity perioperatively, yet I'm sure as I journey along my career, the information within will become second-nature. Until then, I like what I've seen (read) so far. Information is quick to find and focuses on anesthetic implications (no fluff)!

anesthesia central
Its a great app for my profession. Its everything all i need except for the medline part that you cannot use it to search topics
2010-04-05
Anesthesia Central
Excellent. Best anesthesia reference by far
2010-03-22
Simply Phenomenal
I bought this just a couple days ago. I am a student and am about to start clinical and just knew I needed it to be a step ahead of the game! I have been reviewing it at home and it has every bit of information needed for anesthesia and much much more! Worth every penny! I will tell all my fellow students about this.
2010-02-15
outstanding
what i tell you ?
buy it immediately.
a must have

Anesthesia Central
Exceptional program. I use it daily as a CRNA, and the iphone interface is outstanding. The included Davis drug guide is the best I have found, lightyears ahead of epocrates. I love that all the information is peer reviewed and authored.People need to read the app. description... yes you have to pay, but it is worth every penny.

Don't be fooled...
Don't be fooled by early ratings. Without a subscription, you won't see any content, so people may have expected "something for nothing."
This is quality reference material for anybody practicing in anesthesiology. While I initially subscribed to "Anesthesia Central" for my Treo phone, I was disappointed that an on device app had not been available when I jumped to the iPhone. That is, until now. When I downloaded and signed into the app, a current copy of Anesthesia Central was downloaded. This occurred in spit of the fact that my subscription had expired long ago. This bears repeating... Even if your subscription is expired, you are entitled to have the content on the one device of your choice. Of course, there will be no content updating without a current subscription. In terms of content, it is presented either in portrait or landscape in an easy to read font and you latest position is saved when exiting and relaunching the app.
My only "complaint" is that I would like to see a reduced rate for yearly subscriptions... It seems excessive to have to pay $150 each year just to keep current, especially as there is no scheduled update cycle. And yes, I am aware that web access is included in the subscription. $150 is very reasonable for an initial fee, but continuous yearly subscriptions should be offered at a reduced rate. Are you listening Unbound Medicine?

The Best!!!!!
Yes you have to pay but it's worth. Easy to use...it's about time the iPhone got this. I use it every single day at work.
