We built two anesthesia apps that work together as one system.
The Mega App is your clinical and case reference;
Coexisting Diseases & Surgery helps you tailor your anesthetic to the patient’s comorbidities.
The Vargo Anesthesia Mega App –
17 apps rolled into one, built and refined over 15+ years. It’s what you pull up before the OR, and in the classroom:
– 600+ adult case tips plus pediatric case tips
– Cheat sheets for cardiac, critical care, and perioperative
– A full drugs & drips database-TIVA, anticoagulants and reversals, regional considerations, platelet assays
– Regional and OB anesthesia
– Coagulopathies, Blood/TEGs/ROTEM
– CABG from start to finish-drugs, coming off pump, illustrations
– Weight-based peds and adult equipment and meds, plus MH and crisis tools
– Max local anesthetic calculators and critical care calculations
The Vargo Anesthesia Mega App is the largest compilation available in the app stores! These are but a few examples available in the Vargo Anesthesia Mega App!
The Coexisting Diseases & Surgery App –
The Vargo Coexisting Diseases & Surgery App is a clinician-built resource designed to help anesthesia providers tailor anesthetic management to the patient’s underlying comorbidities and surgical considerations.
Built from years of clinical experience, the app focuses on how coexisting diseases directly impact perioperative decision-making.
Organized by major clinical systems, the app allows for rapid access to condition-specific anesthesia considerations—whether preparing for a case or managing complex patients in active clinical settings.
The app is structured by major organ systems and disease categories, providing focused anesthesia guidance across a wide range of conditions:
– Brain/Neuro: Neurologic conditions and their impact on anesthesia management
– Cardiac: Hemodynamic considerations, cardiac pathology, and perioperative risk
– Endocrine: Diabetes, adrenal disorders, thyroid disease, and metabolic implications
– Gastrointestinal: GI disorders affecting anesthesia planning and intraoperative care
– Hematologic Disorders: Coagulopathies, anemia, and blood management considerations
– Liver & Biliary Tract: Hepatic dysfunction and implications for drug metabolism and coagulation
– Pediatrics & OB/GYN: Specialized considerations for pediatric and obstetric populations
– Pulmonary: Respiratory disease management and ventilation strategies
– Renal Diseases: Kidney dysfunction and fluid, electrolyte, and drug considerations
– Congenital Heart Defects: Structural cardiac conditions and tailored anesthesia approaches
The apps are built to provide clear, focused guidance that directly applies to clinical practice:
Organized for rapid navigation by system and condition
Emphasis on how disease states influence anesthetic planning
Practical, case-driven considerations rather than general summaries
This is a tool designed to help providers quickly answer the question:
“How does this patient’s condition change my anesthetic plan?”
These are but a few examples from the Vargo Coexisting Diseases & Surgery App!
The Vargo Coexisting Diseases & Surgery App and Vargo Anesthesia Mega App are developed by experienced anesthesia providers who specialize in managing complex cases across a wide range of disease states.
The content reflects real clinical decision-making and is continuously refined to remain relevant and practical.
Each app is $99 in the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. With the depth, detail, and ongoing additions included throughout both apps, they were designed to provide lasting value for anesthesia professionals and students alike.
All future updates and additions to our apps are included with a one-time purchase. There are no subscriptions or recurring fees.
