A kinetics aid that helps pharmacists calculate vancomycin projected troughs.
Finally a vanc dosing app that shows you what it's doing! Simple and straight forward, the Vanc Dosing Calculator offers pharmacists control over vancomycin kinetics calculations! Use it to calculate the kinetic parameters Ke, Vd, τ , X0, and most importantly, the projected Cmin and Cmax. (And yes! You can play around with the parameters and see how that affects the Cmin and Cmax without having to type those hefty equations on your calculator!). Free demo version includes calculator for initial dosing; full version includes corrections with trough levels. Available on Android (coming soon to iPhone and tablets).
FEATURES
-- All equations are shown -- know EXACTLY where the numbers came from
-- Allows modification of parameters to check the effects on the estimated Cmin and Cmax
-- Full control over CrCl - YOU choose how you want to calculate CrCl
-- Clean and simple interface, no ads
-- Free demo version includes "initial dosing" calculator for initial vanc dose with projected Cmin and Cmax
-- (Full version) Corrections with one trough level with Cmin and Cmax estimations
-- (Full version) Two-point kinetics - corrections with two trough levels with Cmin and Cmax estimations
