Cell Phone CPR 1.0


Category: Medical
Price: $1.99 (iTunes)

Description:

There are thousands of applications for your smartphone,
but this one can help you save someone's life.

Cell Phone CPR is an application designed to assist with the timing and steps of correct CPR. Cell phone CPR will help you maintain the rhythmic requirements of providing correct age specific CPR. This software will prompt you for the proper CPR requirements for infants, for children and for adults. This application will provide you with training reminders when your CPR certification is about to expire and a link to a website for locating CPR courses in your area.

Medical evidence shows that even healthcare providers have difficulty-performing CPR to the suggested guidelines and that CPR skills begin to erode after just months. For less than the cost of a cup of coffee or a single music video, this software could help you save someone's life.

Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death. Several studies have shown that early CPR is critical to improve these low survival rates. International resuscitation guidelines emphasizes the importance of high-quality CPR because correct chest compression rate during CPR is associated with improved blood flow and overall survival rate.

Conforms with the CPR Guidelines of the American Heart Association (AHA), American Red Cross (ARC), European Resuscitation Council (ERC), Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada (HSFC), Resuscitation Council of Asia (RCA), Resuscitation Council of Southern Africa (RCSA), the Australia and New Zealand Council on Resuscitation (ANZCOR), and the InterAmerican Heart Foundation (IAHF).

What Cell Phone CPR is NOT. Cell phone CPR is NOT designed to replace formal training. It does NOT contain CPR training videos, and will NOT certify you in CPR.

One of the most important keys to surviving a cardiac arrest is receiving early proper CPR. Other similar CPR metronomes can cost up to $25.00 and be as bulky as a computer mouse. Cell phone CPR runs directly from your cell phone, something most people have immediately available.

It is recommended for anyone that has ever had a CPR course. No one trained in CPR should be without Cell Phone CPR.

Colour Blindness Test 1.0


Category: Medical
Price: $0.99 (iTunes)

Description:

Do you know what's colour blind?

Colour blind is the name given to people who do not have a 'normal' range of chromatic (color) contrast sensitivity. There are several different kinds of color blindness, and not all are due to genetic variation. The subjective experience of color vision is partially created by the retina measuring differences in the wavelengths of incident light.

Here is a series of tests (which include the Ishihara test) to check if you or your friends around you are colour blind.

** Strongly Advice **

If you develop color vision problems when normally you have been able to see a full range of color, then you definitely should visit your doctor. Sudden or gradual loss of color vision can indicate any number of underlying health problems, such as cataracts.
