Now in Progress: Beta Testing for Free, New Software.The Rapid Access Facts Tool (RAFT) Beta Test is open to everyone that would like to participate. We are eager to obtain all the feedback we can so we encourage you to share this software with your colleagues. RAFT will be continuously updated with new tools and content based on user demand to make it a powerful and comprehensive free application for all health care practitioners. From the common to the esoteric, RAFT has been designed to deliver all health care practitioners difficult-to-remember, but essential medical information at the palm of your hand. This free application, currently in Beta Test, was designed and edited by a board-certified surgeon specializing in trauma surgery and critical care. RAFT is in every way the lifesaver of medical applications. It contains lab values, an audio Spanish reference, ACLS protocols, formula calculators, treatment of poisons, and other information needed in real time to make a difference in patient care.
