Unlike
any other medical specialty, pediatric medicine
has always required the frequent use of a
calculator. Whether your calculating an
antibiotic dose for a toddler or calculating
percentage of body weight loss during newborn
hospital rounds, pediatric professionals are
always making calculations.
It is important to be as accurate as possible
when making these mathematical calculations
because even committing a small error can make a
big difference in patient outcomes. Our
goal is to provide smart, easy to use, and
accurate pediatric apps that can be useful and
practical in the "day to day" practice of
pediatric medicine.
Pediatric apps is also committed to providing
parents with useful apps that can be used to as
resourceful parenting tools.

experience in all aspects of pediatric care.
He is a leader in pediatrics and a developer of
tools for optimizing pediatric health care
around the world.

Kids Weight
Converter is an
"easy to use" app that
allows the user to convert from pounds /
ounces to either grams or kilograms and
vice versa.
In pediatrics we always covert to
kilogram weight, as most children's medications
are dosed based on their body weight.
Also, this is a useful tool in the
newborn nursery as most EMR fields require
weight input in grams even though we still track
an infant's weight in pounds and ounces.
