OmniDose
®
A Modern Solution to Emergent Medication Dosing
Our Mission
Decreasing medication errors and improving patient outcomes
OmniDose is committed to changing the way medication is given in pediatric emergencies. With a patented three vial capacity with vials corresponding to Broselow tape colors, life saving medications can be given without fear of inaccurate dosing. OmniDose provides a quicker way to administer medications to critcally ill patients and therefore increases odds of patient survival.
OmniDose in Practice
A critically ill child comes into your care. Immediately upon initial assessment, you notice the child has no spontaneous breaths and a weak pulse. As PALS protocol is being initiated, your next task is to prepare and administer life-saving medications.
What is the quickest way to do this?
Without OmniDose:
The patient is first measured using a color-coded, weight-based tape to quickly determine an estimated weight for medication dosing. A provider then verifies the patient’s weight and either calculates the appropriate dose for each medication, finds the appropriate dose written on the colored tape, or utilizes an associated mobile app index. The medications must then be retrieved, drawn up, and independently double-checked for the correct dosage and concentration before being administered individually.
With OmniDose:
The patient is first measured using a color-coded, weight-based tape to quickly determine an estimated weight for medication dosing. Three pre-dosed medication vials that correspond to the identified tape color are then placed into the OmniDose syringe. You place the first desired medication vial into the active position, attach to the patient's point of access or attach IM needle and press down plunger as with any standard syringe, to administer medication. Utilize a stopcock to flush between medications without removing the syringe if utilizing an IV or IO and twist the OmniDose so the next medication is now in the acitve position*.
*This process is able to be repeated three times corresponding to the OmniDose's patented three vial capacity
