Pneumotox PDA version

Carl Kluge writes in about a new free medical software for PDAs, Pneumotox

Carl says:

Pneumotox (www.pneumotox.com) is a database about drugs that may damage the respiratory system.
It is widely used by predominantly US users (originally it is a French site!) because it provides accurate and updated information (about 250.000 hits/year) Our PDA version can help taking this information to the bedside. The pulmonologists already using the program are very satisfied about it, as are Drs Camus and Foucher, the owners of the Pneumotox site.
Maybe you want to try it and give me your opinion.
The program can be downloaded as freeware at http://www.medtools.nl/products/pneumotox.html

The website is in the Dutch language (except from this page), but I’m sure you will find your way.
So how to inform our collegues? We have submitted an abstract to the European Respiratory Society conference, which will take place september 2006. That is a long time to go. The French site will make a link but that will not be untill a fully renewed website, which will also take some time (they are also non-commercial like us)
But maybe you want to help us by making a posting on your website about this program, I think it will surely help distributing this information!

Well it certainly looks like another useful tool, Carl. It would be another PDA based tool to assist physicians at the point of care. Thank you for making it free!
