Built for 3 AM.
Every topic opens the same way, so your tired brain always knows where to look.
- 3 AM · Do this now — the first actions, in order. Start here.
- The model — one picture in your head that makes the topic click.
- Mind map — the whole topic on one screen.
- Decision path, tables & doses — when you need detail.
- The 1% trick — a bedside test or rule most people never use.
- Traps — the mistakes that hurt patients.
- If you remember three things — the summary to keep.
Who it's for
Doctors, nurses and clinical officers who cover emergency, HDU and ICU — especially when you are the most senior person in the building and the patient is getting worse. Written for real wards, including resource-limited ones: tropical emergencies, poisoning and obstetric crises sit next to ECMO and ROTEM.
Adult doses unless stated. It supports, and never replaces, clinical judgement, local protocols and senior help.
