During our training years, most of us carried paper notes and clippings of those great advices from senior smart colleagues, now no longer if you have an iPhone or iPod Touch!
Here we have another smart app from Free Radical Software, the “Lytes“. The name is not a misnomer it is a shortened form of electrolytes appropriately reflecting the function of the app which is a shortcut toward the management of diselectrolytemias.
Have a look here;
The Lytes can be purchased directly from app store here, for only $3. These three bucks is a great investment that can make our life much easier in clinical practice.
In many iPhone apps that are being released nowadays you either get a great wow factor or you get some less awesomeness but with serious productivity and relevance to clinical practice. Lytes combines the two.
It provides instant access to the causes, signs, treatment, and references of the disorder, once again, in a great slot machine like single interface with smooth flicking.
These disorders inherently make nuisance in practice as they are difficult to remember and to tackle even though they are seen in a day to day practice, this app has made it much easier for us.
Unlike Acid Plus, when we tilt the device into landscape horizontal mode, nothing happens. We suggest to the makers that a tilt here can produce some management flowcharts with yes or no steps to dx and rx the disorder. Another thing they can do is to link the references quoted at the end to live URLs that open up in Safari.
In a nutshell, this is a must-have clinical companion for every practicing physician.

This app provides very basic information and it’s incoherent with outlines of information only and no real work is there apart from the cool interface.
It may be useful for medical students not for physicians

Hi Martin
Disagree..
This is what this app about, to simplify things while you are in hurry
You don’t the most sophisticated and detailed info which will take minutes and hours while you are rushing to see your hypokalemic patient!
