Good news! I have been hard at work on developing Mediquations for the iPad ever since receiving my iPad on Saturday.

I have submitted Version 23 to the app store for approval.  This version is a “universal” application, meaning it’s an iPhone/iPod Touch app and an iPad app in one package.

In other words, if you’ve ever purchased Mediquations before, the iPad version of Mediquations is a free download away.

I would really like to know how you plan on using the iPad in the healthcare setting.  Leave a comment.

The following changes are in Version 22:

  • Fixed a units bug that would only appear when ‘override variables’ were set.
  • Adjusted body weight in the BMI calculator to now display in the selected units.

There is a problem with units in the new version of Mediquations, Version 21. I have uploaded a new version that corrects this issue.

This bug only appears if you have any “override global units” set in the Mediquations Settings app. If you do not have any “override global units”, this bug does not affect you.

Here’s a fix in the meantime. For variables with units that you set to “override”, toggle the units buttons, and the correct values will be displayed.

For example, if you have your global units set to US, but you override the weight units to “kg (SI)”, when you select a weight variable, tap “lbs” in the keyboard, then tap “kg” in the keyboard.

Hope this helps. Sorry for the trouble. A new version will hopefully be out on the iPhone app store by the end of the week.
