Featured Doctor PWA examples The Royal London Hospital
Vishi’s medical specialisation is in neuroscience and brain injury and trauma.
PWA for The Royal London Hospital to update
PWA for procedural guidelines for his trauma surgery department via first responders mobile phones.
His first PWA was commissioned around trauma surgery procedural guideline
Then COVID-19 struck.
Vishi has re-purposed his Maltix PWA to convey the latest, up-to-date procedural guidelines and checklists for COVID-99 first responders.
Helping support them in real time as they battle the virus.
WPA APPS from Maltix examples
COVID-19 crisis, we have a lot of things to memorise in a very short period of time.
I wanted to give people something that they can have on their phones and easily access.
Paperless.
When you’re dealing with a live situation, you never seem to have that paper on hand.
Everyone has their phone on them
One of the key issues for this virus is the personal protective equipment.
We have to wear them in a particular order, we have to remove them in a particular order.
Guidelines for how to deal with someone that is very sick.
We don’t contaminate ourselves.
All this came in such a short period of time.
Too much information to memorise and to be able to use without reference.
This PWA makes sure that the doctors and nurses working in COVID wards and in ICUs have these guidelines at hand.
They can consult them at any time on their phone
It has guidelines around a series of important topics for COVID response, and checklists to complete.
Some PWA examples
A checklist:
Room entry
If we have to put a breathing tube in, to put a patient on a ventilator.
It’s a very specialised procedure and it can be dangerous.
A lot of doctors who are not trained in intensive care medicine are going to be needed to help.
And it’s extremely important that we have these guidelines available for them to reference at any time.

PWA from Maltix
So I thought.
This can be a good platform to propagate that information.
I access through the secure back office to continually update.
I’m trying to make sure I get all of the key procedural guidelines in there.”
Vishi’s app is getting more and more users in his hospital.
From the ICU, to the Infection control group, to the nurses.
And Maltix wants to help other healthcare workers across the globe to create similar PWA .
Which can aid in real-time transfer of information around COVID-19 response protocols and on the ground training.
If you are working in healthcare and fighting this virus.
yeah bookmaking this wasn’t a risky decision great post! .
i love this super post
