7 iPhone Apps That Can Save Lives

http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/emer-2.jpg

What can't iPhone applications do? There are apps for almost every interest and every need. But while apps for politics or saving money are great, you can live without them. However, the same cannot be said for the seven apps highlighted in this article. These apps do everything from check your vitals to getting you important first aid information during an emergency. Anything can happen, so it's always best to be prepared. iPhones are particularly suited for this task, especially if you install some of these apps:


1. Airstrip OB




AirStrip OB is an iPhone app developed specifically for doctors in obstetrics, or doctors dealing with pregnancy and childbirth. It sends detailed information on a patient's vitals so that they know the condition of their patient on the go. Push notifications means that doctors can get alerts if an event such as a cardiac arrest occurs.

2. CPR & Choking




While Airstrip OB may only be useful for doctors, CPR & Choking is useful to everyone. This free app, built as a public service by the University of Washington and King County EMS, houses an array of video demonstrations that help you know what to do if someone you know is undergoing a medical emergency or cardiac episode.

3. Close Call




Very simple. Very effective. Close Call is a free app takes your iPhone wallpaper and layers it with emergency contact information in case the worst happens.

4. Pocket First Aid & CPR Guide




Similar to CPR & Choking, this app informs you of procedures for saving a person's life, but this $3.99 application is definitely more extensive. It not only has videos to teach you how to provide first aid, but Pocket First Aid lets you create detailed medical profiles and contains up-to-date information from the American Heart Association.

5. iBP Blood Pressure




High blood pressure can kill you, plain and simple. Record a history of your blood pressure history with this $0.99 app. If you're a diabetes sufferer, also check out Diabetes Log.

6. Emergency Radio




An earthquake takes out the power. You get stuck in traffic afer hearing an explosion. Your building is evacuated and you don't know why. We can think of a million reasons to have an emergency radio handy. For $0.99, you can have the emergency frequencies of almost all the major police and emergency departments in the U.S., as well as air traffic control.
