Unbound Medicine ‘Central’ Packages coming to the iPhone

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Unbound Medicine has recently released their first ever ‘bundle-package’ app for the iPhone and iPod Touch, The Nursing Central.

Have a look here, you can click on the full screen button for better view:

You can see that there are so many features and resources packaged in one outstanding iPhone App. This is the first ‘Central’ packages to be released in App Store.

One of the most important features noticed is the wireless update where tapping on the right upper reciprocal update arrows takes us into the most recent database update of the app. These updates are not a joke, they are real and for example they just recently updated Tabers into their latest 21st edition as it was showing before the previous 20th edition and also just recently they added the Handbook of Nursing Diagnosis for institutional subscribers and as an optional add-on to individual subscribers.

The stuffing of this app is astonishing as you can get Davis Drug guide, Medline journals, Davis lab and dxstic tests, Diseases and Disorders, Tabers, and the handbook all for only one subscription price of $160 per year. The added prices of these components goes well above $200 if they are purchased separately.

The Nursing Central just like all other Unbound titles is available as a website. Just visit http://nursing.unboundmedicine.com on your desktop or mobile. The website version has an extra box of recent PDA medical news and it still includes the previous 20th edition of Tabers.

Another high level of functionality is the cross linking button where you can find related entries to your keyword in the other portions of the package. For example as shown above in the video, when reading about Acromagaly in Diseases and Disorders you can cross linked with related info found in the Davis drug guide and lab references, this undoubtedly useful at the beside and integrates the content into a single completer all-in-one application.

This is a great gift from Unbound Medicine and we can’t wait to see Pediatrics Central on our iPhone and iPod Touch devices!
