Clinical Xpert from Thomson Health Care is an all-in-one PDA application that has all the features and sections that we may ever need at the point of care.
The pediatrc PDA dream software is to have a single interface where we can have drug information, drug interactions, news and alerts, calculators & tools, differential diagnosis, disease information, lab and tests info, and CME all combined in a single program.
The Xpert has most of these except for CME and the best part is that it is available for free for PDR and Micromedex subscribers.
Once you are subscribed you can log on to their online account management and choose the sections that you would like to install on your PDA. These sections will be downloaded/updated upon your next synchronization.
Although these services are still deficient when compared to industry standards such as Epocrates Essentials but hopefully the next versions will include much more contents.
The various sections of Clinical Xpert are reviewed in details in pda4peds. Go to Clinical Xpert review page and from there find reviews of these sections.
