Pedia tools for pediatric rounds, NICU, PICU, and emergency duty

PediaHelper brings the common pediatric resident workflow into one place: drug dosing, growth assessment, jaundice thresholds, resuscitation calculations, electrolyte tools, neonatal references, textbook search, and PubMed-backed evidence summaries.

High-Use Bedside Tools

Ask Evidence Search pediatric literature and generate cited answers. Ask Nelson Search pediatric textbook content for resident questions. Ask Harriet Lane Medication and dosing-focused pediatric answers. Drug Dosage Library Search structured pediatric medication dosing. Resuscitation Calculator Emergency doses, airway sizes, and infusions. AAP Phototherapy Thresholds Neonatal jaundice threshold review. Growth Assessment WHO z-scores, percentiles, BMI, and BP context. Blood Pressure Calculator Age, sex, and height percentile BP review. ABG Interpreter PICU acid-base support. Neonatal Sepsis NICE Early neonatal infection risk support. Westley Croup Score Croup severity from bedside exam. Pediatric Asthma Score Asthma exacerbation severity scoring. BRUE Low-Risk Criteria AAP lower-risk BRUE checklist. Kawasaki Criteria Complete and incomplete Kawasaki support. Kocher Septic Hip Criteria Septic arthritis risk in irritable hip. Pediatric SIRS/Sepsis SIRS, sepsis, severe sepsis, shock criteria. Phoenix Sepsis Score 2024 SCCM pediatric sepsis and septic shock score.

Built Around Resident Workflow

The page is organized for repeated clinical use rather than browsing. Start with a calculator when you need a number, use Ask Nelson or Ask Harriet Lane for focused textbook-style review, and use Ask Evidence when a clinical question needs literature support.

Ward rounds

Growth, BMI, blood pressure, fluids, drug dosing, and quick literature checks.

NICU calls

Jaundice thresholds, neonatal sepsis, gestational weight, UVC, Ballard, and neonatal BP.

PICU duty

Resuscitation, ABG, sodium correction, potassium replacement, tidal volume, and emergencies.

Source Strategy

PediaHelper pages are designed to pair calculator output with transparent source blocks, internal links to adjacent workflows, and focused answer tools that preserve citations or source context.

American Academy of Pediatrics clinical guidance Used for pediatric guideline-linked pages such as jaundice and blood pressure.
WHO Child Growth Standards Reference family for WHO growth assessment.
PubMed Search source for Ask Evidence literature retrieval.

Pediatric resident tools are calculators, references, and search workflows used during pediatric rounds, emergency calls, NICU duty, PICU duty, prescribing, and exam preparation.

Which PediaHelper tools are most useful on duty?

The most useful duty tools are drug dosage search, pediatric resuscitation, growth assessment, blood pressure percentiles, jaundice thresholds, electrolyte calculators, Ask Nelson, Ask Harriet Lane, and Ask Evidence.

Does PediaHelper replace local hospital policy?

No. PediaHelper is a clinical support workspace. Calculator outputs and answer summaries should be checked against local policy, pharmacy guidance, and senior clinical judgment.
