TPN and Tube Feeding - Nutricalc for RDs App Reviews

This app makes calculating energy needs, tube feeds, and TPNs a breeze! I love being able to quickly compare TF formulas. The time I save with this app allows me to spend more face-to-face time with my patients.

Really straightforward and useful for tube feeds and tpn.

This app is seriously a clinical dietitians best friend! Features include MSJ/Penn State calculations, TF, and TPN calculator. I've tried several other apps that claim similar functions, but I love that this app has all 3 in one. Also, I LOVE that you can adjust the TF duration and hourly rate and calculate macronutrients this way. I transition a lot of pts from continuous to cyclic and this saves me SO much time! The TPN function is fantastic too! Honestly, this saves me prob 5-7 mins/pt. I can

This app is the most user-friendly for clinical dietitians that I've used. I wish I had found it sooner! It calculates MSJ (or Penn State) and kcal/kg simultaneously, which is helpful when I calculate nutrition requirements in multiple ways to compare the numbers. The EN and TPN calculations also save significant time while charting.

Just downloaded and played around with this, but I can already tell I'll be using this app every day for all my patients. I'll be telling everyone in my RD group about this!

I have used this app for about a month and I am so pleased with the ease and accuracy of the calculators, the built-in formulary and the time it has saved me because it is right at my fingertips. In fact, I am in the process of reviewing this app in for a newsletter article. In an absolute perfect world, the only additional calculators I would add, it would be to include a IV dextrose and Propofol calculator. No complaints here! Fantastic job!

Great, user-friendly format. Usually fairly accurate, but can be off on protein and fluid for TF calculations (such as Nutren 1.5). With just a few changes in formula accuracy, I could use it with more confidence for my TF calculations. Thanks for developing this!

Absolutely love this app. Please update the tube feeding choices to be more inclusive of the newer options.

Love this app! So easy to use and helpful for fast calculations of est energy/PRO needs and TFs. Highly recommend

Good app, but many Nestle formulas have changed slightly and the app has not been updated accordingly. Also, only way to contact developer is on Facebook, for which I do not have an account.

Super helpful when you’re seeing a ton of patients and need some quick math. Needs katefarms added!!!

I use this app almost everyday. Super helpful, especially for making recs on the fly. Would love to see an update to this app though!

User interface seems small and cramped on iPhone 6. When I’ve double checked the Penn State equation, I can’t ever get close to the same value the app does. I presume it’s using the Mifflin equation but the numbers never match up for me.
