| MACpalm (v1.0 October 2003) |
 |
MACpalm is a palm implementation of the nomograms published in "Age-related iso-MAC charts for Isoflurane, sevoflurane and desflurane in man" by Nickalls and Mapleson, in BJA 91(2) 170-4 (2003).
Given the patient's age, end-tidal nitrous concentration and chosen volatile agent, it allows calculation of the required end-tidal concentration of volatile agent to achieve a particular MAC, allowing for the fall in MAC that occurs with increasing age. It also allows the reverse, that is calculation of MAC given the ET volatile concentration.
MACPalm is freeware!
