Lifesavers in the emergency room
In the emergency room and intensive care unit, the diverse challenges every day can only be mastered with an enormous amount of knowledge, experience, empathy and passion. Especially when the emergency patients are children or even infants, the support of a reliable aid is worth its weight in gold … and often saves lives.
Uncertainty is amplified when the weight of young patients is unknown. The PedNFL provides at a glance all the important age-appropriate standard values, the appropriate size of equipment, and information on pediatric pharmacotherapy. All the necessary information can be read directly from the ruler, without having to look up information in accompanying booklets or make your own calculations.
The PädNFL is the only tool in the world that has already been proven in two studies to help prevent life-threatening errors in pediatric emergencies:

2. Kaufmann et al. Improving Pediatric Drug Safety in Prehospital Emergency Care-10 Years on. J Patient Saf 2021; 17: e1241-e1246.
