About PICU Calculator

PICU Calculator - free body weight-based calculator for paediatric intensive care, including drug dosages and equipment sizes.

Instructions for use
Age range: 0-18 years
(You can select the unit for age: years, months, or days) Body weight range: 0-150kg

The information provided is self-explanatory. If you enter the age in days, the app will assume the baby is a neonate or a very small infant and will take this into account in certain calculations, e.g. ETT size.

Additional functions: A body weight estimation tool is available to estimate the patient's body weight based on body length/height or age, according to local growth chart data. Additional reference information on management of paediatric cardiac arrest is available via the additional function buttons on the top-right corner.
