How to use Helix Anesthesia
Short walkthroughs, narrated by the CRNA who built the app. Most are under a minute. If you are looking for clinical reading rather than the app itself, the clinical answers are over here.
What Helix Anesthesia is 1:31
A tour of the app from the clinician who built it — what is in it, who it is for, and how it is organized for the OR rather than for a textbook.
Signing in 0:43
There is no password to create or remember. Enter your email, and either tap the link that arrives or type the eight-digit code. You stay signed in afterwards.
Answers you can check 0:31
Ask Helix searches the app’s own reference library first and cites the passage it used. Tapping a citation opens the exact screen it quotes, so you can check the claim rather than trust it.
Local anesthetic toxicity 0:42
Finding the LAST page under pressure: the recognition criteria, the lipid emulsion dosing worked against the patient’s weight, and what changes about the resuscitation.
Malignant hyperthermia 0:47
The crisis checklist as it works in the moment — dantrolene dosing, the sequence of tasks, and the parts people forget once the room is busy.
The weight plausibility check 0:40
What happens when an entered weight does not fit the patient described. The calculators warn before they compute, and record what was shown and what you chose.
Reporting a problem 0:39
How to flag anything that looks wrong, from a typo to a dose you disagree with. It reaches the clinician who maintains the content, not a ticket queue.
