A dosing calculator for patient-controlled analgesia pumps. It helps inpatient teams set the infusion, demand dose, and lockout consistently instead of redoing the arithmetic by hand each time.

PCA orders involve a handful of interlocking numbers (basal rate, demand dose, lockout interval, hourly limit), and they're easy to get wrong when you're busy. The tool does the math and shows sensible ranges for the common agents.

It has agent-specific flows, calculates the basal, demand dose, lockout, and both the 1-hour and 4-hour limits, starts from conservative defaults with guidance inline, and works on a phone for on-call use.
