Symptom Checker — Select a primary complaint and the app works through a focused clinical question sequence built for that presentation. Conditions scored using weighted feature profiles across 27 clinical pathways. Hard confirmation rules fire immediately for critical diagnoses the moment their defining features are present. Covers altitude illness, tropical disease, trauma, environmental and medical emergencies. Always shows the full differential so alternatives stay visible.
Vital Signs — NEWS2 scoring from heart rate, respiratory rate, SpO2, blood pressure, temperature, and ACVPU. Log readings to a patient record to track changes over time.
Medications — 41 medications with pre-administration safety checklists, field dosing, drug interactions, and contraindications. Favourite any medication for rapid access. Missing something? Suggest a Medication in-app for a future update. All dosing to be verified against current guidelines before administration.
Smart Kit List — Build a medically intelligent kit list for your expedition. Select your terrain — high altitude, tropical, cold, desert, trauma, maritime, remote, or woodland — and the app recommends what to bring based on the conditions you're most likely to face. Every item is mapped to the conditions it treats. See exactly which of the 127 conditions your kit covers, flag critical gaps, and catch dependency problems before you leave. Five clinical depth profiles from emergency basics to full expedition kit. Export as PDF.
Patient Records — Full AMPLE history, vital signs logs, triage priority, treatment notes, and ATMIST handover. Multi-encounter timelines build automatically across the expedition. Full evacuation records with ETHANE scene reports, evacuation planning, timestamped comms logs, and structured handover with ATMIST pre-loaded. Protected by Face ID — patient data locks when the app goes to the background.
Team Pre-Screening — Record every team member's medical details before departure. Convert to a full patient record instantly during an incident.
Home Screen — Quick actions for the most-used features, live kit coverage and patient status tiles, recently viewed conditions and medications, and active patient indicator.

Nouveautés (v1.6)
Clinical content reviewed led by our CMO
Over 65 conditions have been updated following a full clinical audit. Key changes include:
Resuscitation — BLS and AED protocols rewritten to full step-by-step detail. Anaphylaxis, stroke, meningitis, and sepsis management all updated with explicit drug dosing, source-directed antibiotic guidance, and current UK guideline references.
Trauma — Stop the Bleed, chest trauma, femoral fracture, and lethal triad protocols updated with current ATLS guidance. Lethal triad now recognised and confirmed by the symptom checker.
Environmental — Hypothermia and frostbite updated with the hypothermic burrito technique. Soft tissue injuries, ankle, and knee protocols updated to PEACE and LOVE (replacing POLICE). Burns management expanded with Parkland formula guidance.
Tropical — Malaria protocol updated with pregnancy regimens and Malarone same-trip warnings. Snakebite PIB now applies to all bites regardless of species. Typhoid antibiotic guidance updated for fluoroquinolone resistance.
Medications
10 targeted medication updates. Paracetamol and co-codamol now carry cross-warnings to prevent accidental double-dosing. Doxycycline loading dose added. Nitrofurantoin shortened to 3 days per NICE NG109. Malarone updated to UKHSA 2024 guidance.
Symptom Checker
Significant engine improvements. The checker now stops earlier when a presentation is clear, asks questions in the order that best separates the leading candidates, and surfaces serious conditions that haven't yet been ruled out even when they rank lower. Negative answers now actively reduce scores.
Choking now sits under Difficulty Breathing. A new Eye pathway separates Eye Trauma from CRAO in two questions. 23 new discriminating questions added across head injury, spinal injury, hypothermia, DKA, angina vs MI, quinsy, and more.
Suggest a Condition
The Conditions tab now has a Suggest a Condition option at the bottom, matching the existing Suggest a Medication.
