New iOS version
Today our new iOS app version 5.0 is released. It is the first step in our move towards unifying the interface of android and iOS. The most significant change will be the sidebar interface. We have made favorites much more prominent in the app so that quick access to frequent pages are easy during a clinical shift.
Weight-based emergency dosing at your fingertips!
Check out WikEM’s new Broselow-type weight-based dosing feature under “Critical care quick reference” in the app (or, on the web at http://www.wikem.org/wiki/Critical_care_quick_reference).
Now you’ll always have equipment sizes and medication doses immediately available to you during codes or other emergencies!

Residency Support Thanks
WikEM has always had close ties to EM residency training programs. Harbor-UCLA has always been our greatest supporter and we thank all the residents this year who contribute a lot of great content and edits.
Our newest residency supporter has been UT Southwestern EM residency in Dallas. Their residents have written many high quality pages.
We also thank all the attendings who support residents engaging in actively learning by writing on the wiki.
Thank you all for creating freely available EM core content this year!
