What’s New

Version 9.4

NEW
• Toggle individual Personal List chart visibilities in Case & Patient Lists
- Use Chart menu to toggle them on/off
- You can also use the context menu on each chart to hide them

• Ability to view 'All Cases' for a category via context menu when drilling down via the Dashboard
- Previously you could only see Cases for the selected time range

FIXES
• A bug where a certain combination of biometric data would cause a crash when viewing a Case

• Operations & Surgeons Chart items may be overlaid if they had the same name but a different Speciality - FIXED

• Hopefully fixed a weird, rare, and hard to track down bug where saving an ID Label would save it to the Case, but not the Patient
- This would have the effect of removing it should you edit and then save that Patient attached to the Case
- Let me know if this is still happening to you.

• Another obscure bug that I've hopefully fixed is a crash on initial loading of the Dashboard screen
- This was mostly an issue on macOS

Case tracker, almost perfect

The best case tracker that I've found out there. It's affordable, synchronizes well across my devices and has a lot of customization available. There are a few little annoyances, but because I can't tell if they're just user error instead of actual design issues, I won't bother mentioning them. If you're looking for an inexpensive and user friendly case logging app, this seems to fit the bill.

Developer Response ,

Thank you for the great review, I appreciate it... however, please get in touch with the little annoyances because the only way I know what annoys my users *specifically* is if they let me know!

You can email me directly in the app via Settings -> Help & Support -> Email Support

We can see if what annoys you is a bug or just something I've not implemented very well!

Cheers, Paul

Finally something that works!

After years of fruitless searching, someone has finally developed a worthwhile app for tracking anesthesia cases. The setup is simple and the use is intuitive. Export a slick case report for credentialing? No problem! This app has saved me hours of formulating the data for tracking case averages. I give it my highest recommendation!

Developer Response ,

Thank you so much for the wonderful review, I really appreciate it. Let me know if I can do anything to improve things 🤓 Kind regards, Paul

Robert Revels (CRNA) ,

Absolutely the best app for case logs!

I’ve been using your app for the past 5 years now and highly recommend it to my Nurse Anesthetist colleagues.

To only question I have is downloading case logs from a selected time period. Can you tell me how I can download just the last year of case logs instead of the past 5 years of case?

Developer Response ,

Hi Robert! Thank you very much for the lovely review, I really appreciate it!

The easiest way to download a specific day, week, month or year of cases is to select that range on the Dashboard, then either view the Cases by tapping on that line in the section below the Case Cards OR simply tap the export/share button. It will export all those cases for you in one file.

You can also create a Search on the All Data screen to specify a precise date range, as well as add other search terms to filter your cases.

Get in touch by email if you need further help and I’ll reply as soon as I can. Kind regards, Paul.
