About TPN and Tube Feeding - Nutricalc for RDs
Designed by the experienced RDs at Stanford Hospital and Santa Clara Valley Medical Center to bring all nutrition support needs into the palm of your hand. Easily saves 10+ minutes per patient -- seriously, an RD's best friend.
Based on daily routines across all types of patients, we jammed EVERYTHING we need into just 3 simple screens. We've thoroughly tested the app in our own daily routines over the past year, and can't imagine not having this app anymore.
We've double-checked calculations many times and automated everything including tube feeding formulas where possible, so you don't have to.
Screen 1: Quick Nutrition Needs --
Quickly determine BMI, IBW, kcal needs (both MSJ and Penn State, for on or off ventilation), and protein needs. Easily account for stress factor and protein multipliers.
Screen 2: Instant Tube Feeds --
Determine total volume, kcal, gm protein, %kcal protein, gm CHO, %kcal CHO, and mL free H2O in literally seconds.
Screen 3: Parental Nutrition (TPN) calculator --
Input rate and duration, and either grams or percentage dextrose/amino acids/lipids to determine total volume, kcal, gm protein, gm CHO, GIR, and gm fat/kg. Works for both 2-in-1 and 3-in-1 methods.
We made this app to fulfill our own biggest painpoints, but after realizing how indispensable it's become to us, we hope it's helpful for others now too.

Reviews for TPN and Tube Feeding - Nutricalc for RDs
David B, RD
Best phone app for a RD
There is no other app like this, at least for mobile. This is also well-made and easy to use. It saved me countless hours of time throughout my career and continues to do so. The main benefit is you can use this on the go or during rounds etc. without the need to go to a computer or website to use a similar app that isn't as well made or easy to use. The only downside is it doesn't provide every aspect of a tube feeding like vitamin or mineral content. It also is only on iOS so any interns with android won't be able to get it. Regardless, this app is worth it and you should get it especially if you're a clinical dietitian.
