ASRA Coags App Reviews

Nice simple app. The ASRA coag guidelines have always been deeply unmemorable and with this application I don't even have to pretend to keep them in my head. Nice to have on hand.

Worthless. This app fails on many levels. The point of having something like this is to look up the duration of action of medications. It doesn't do this. For example, I want to know how long after a dose of bivalirudin I can place an epidural. So I click on the "neuraxial" button under bivalirudin, and it tells me "not recommended." That's it, no other info. As an anesthesiologist, I already know this information. What I want to know is how long the medication lasts, what the pertinent risks are, and when it is safe to do a procedure after its administration. This app tells you none of that. It is also missing several newer anticoagulants, some of which have been out for well over a year. Even the interface is annoying since every time you open the app an ad pops up. Don't waste your money on this garbage.

Something gone wrong with last update?. Was working pretty well, but now can’t seem to search by procedure for interventional pain stuff.

Great app but missing some anticoagulants. I think it's a simple to use, well put together app, but it is missing some newer anticoagulants, I know there is no good data for many of these but it would still be nice to have some information such as half life, etc of these newer drugs.

Excellent!. Prior to this app, your best option was to pour through the guidelines and make a quick reference table. That, or find one already done by another department. This app is an easy-to-use, always-with-me reference.

Easiest app to use.. This app does exactly what it's built to do. Great resource. In my top ten medical apps

Physician. Awesome app! We need more apps like this in the field of medicine.

Awesome. This a great app! Something as critical as avoiding neuraxial anesthesia in patients on anticoagulation is self evident. With new anticoagulants coming out so frequently this app is a huge timesaver.

Just what we need in the OR. Great reference for non-anesthesia personnel to guide treatment. Great for learners as well.

App developer needs to remove version number from App name. iOS now puts all app names in the custom autocorrect dictionary on iPhone. When you install this ASRA Coags app, it appears as “Coags 2.1” in your app menu. As a result, any time you type the number “21” in any app, iOS will try to autocorrect it to “2.1” because it thinks you are trying to type the name of this app. Try it… you’ll see I’m correct. Deleting the Coags app is the only way to get iOS to stop changing the number “21” to 2.1 in autocorrect. I’ve contacted the app developer previously. They are stubborn and refuse to remove the version number from the app name in iOS despite this problem. The version number is irrelevant anyway since iOS has automatically updated apps since version 6 or 7 of iOS. I delete the app and reinstall it about once a month to get info from it, then immediately delete it again.

Better than the first version. I work in a very busy interventional pain practice. I work with many different nurses of widely varying skill I was hopeful that the new guidelines would be something that the nurses could use to help me streamline practices. They do not. This updated app Is quite clunky to use however it’s a whole lot better than going back to the original multi page guidelines.

Superb app. Well worth the price. Concise, authoritative, and easy to use.

Great app!. The ASRA consensus guidelines are something that I often have to reference, but it is a pain going to the website or searching some other way. This makes it very easy and immediately accessible. Great for anyone doing blocks - Anesthesiologists, ER docs, residents, or CRNAs. We need other apps like this!

Poor Quality. Although it is a paid app, it still opens with an advertisement that cannot be skipped. Also has a bug that requests to follow your activity that will not allow a selection, thus freezing the app.

Great App. Easy to use and has all the rules to live by when you put needles in people for a living. Invaluable.

What happened to my access?. Tried to access my paid ASRA app today, and now need to pay to access again? Why should I pay for the app twice?

Subscription SCAM. Was a paid app that has changed to subscription without notice. Will be requesting a refund.

Subscription scam. This was a paid app that has changed to subscription model out of the blue. I want a refund

I paid for this app and now denied access. I paid for this app about 3 months ago. I am now being asked to sign up annually and pay more money for a rubbish, clunky app. This occurred without any information relayed to myself. I only found this out when I required the relevant coagulation information immediately in a clinical scenario. Those behind this application are dishonest scammers that cannot be relied upon. Do not waste your money, time, or trust in the institution responsible for this application at risk of being abandoned in scenarios where such information is critical to patient care. I wish these pathetic greedy dishonest scammers the worst and wonder how they live with themselves at night. Shame on you all

Payment scam. Previously paid for the app. Suddenly the app is asking for subscriptions and disabled previous access. Don’t recall receiving any notice about it. Would’ve preferred at least there is a transition before such a dishonest business practice and a rather disappointing act of monetizing healthcare information. I wonder if the organization is experiencing financial difficulty and using this practice as the last resort to stay away from bankruptcy. Or perhaps the anaesthesiologist on the board of directors have been replaced by Wall Street practitioners.

Double payment. Asking to pay a subscription after already paying for the app - predatory practice. Will be cancelling.

Previously paid, now locked out. So they’ve now changed it so you have to pay ASRA directly. Great, except I’ve previously paid before they implemented the subscription model. Oh, and VISA’s algorithm won’t approve this in Canada, so we’re just out of luck

disgusting. This should be illegal. I paid for this app and now they force a mandatory account and subscription. Way to ruin a once decent app. I’ll avoid your website and meetings as well.

ASRA will not get another penny from me. Embarrassing money grab after paying a “one-time” fee, only to be converted to a subscription model and then utilizing funds to legally intimidate other physicians who offer free alternatives for guidelines that are freely available. Shameless grifting.

ASRA suddenly charging. I purchased this app years ago and now they are charging for it. That wasn’t the original contract!

New guidelines, needs update. The new 2025 ASRA guidelines on anticoagulation were released on January 2025. The App needs to be updated.

Crooks. After purchasing the app, they want you to pay a yearly subscription. I could not believe that without any notice I could not assess the information after I had purchase the application

Paid for app now need to pay more. I already paid for this app. And now they want more? Cmon

Changed to subscription. Paied for the App initially. Now changed to an annual 6.99 subsciption fee. Not worth It

Scam. I paid for this app, and now they have removed all access unless you subscribe, which costs more than the previous full paid cost!

Need to pay an annually fee. I paid for this app a few years ago and now I need to pay annually…

ASRA coag rocks!. Awesome bedside/ timeout app for the patient on anticoagulation

Highly disappointing. I payed to download the app only to now require a subscription to access the same content. Information essential for patient safety now being put behind a paywall. Very disappointed and will be deleting this app.

Disappointed. Had paid for this app only to now find it unusable and requiring a yearly subscription.

Subscription Required. Pretty shameful to have an app designed for patient safety require a paid subscription, especially when the article is free…

First pay to use the app, now have to pay every year as well?. Previously paid for this app, now being prompted that it requires a yearly subscription. Completely inappropriate to make individuals who bought the app now also pay yearly for access. Do not go anywhere near this.

Predatory. Should not have to pay for publicly available info

Subscription and Account Required Now. For many years this has been a go to resource. They’ve made it require an account and subscription now…

update required. The newest guidelines need to be incorporated into the app. The requirement for login to use is annoying and unnecessary, please remove this. When I need to use the app I want it to be simple and easy to access without a login like it used to be. The login requirement will decrease my use of this app. ASRA you can do better.

1 star is too many. Paid full price for this and now they have the nerve to charge me a yearly subscription?!? I will never use this again and warn every other healthcare professional not to use this either. Just use Google instead, especially nowadays. Awful business practices/ethics. Hope somebody rips you off and creates a better knockoff. Your user interface is trash which is fine when it's a single fee. For a subscription you must be joking.

Patients first?. Having paid for the app, ARSA now want an additional subscription fee. Plus, I have received no communication about this. Certainly not an indication of “patients first.”

Greedy!. I paid for these apps already. Now creators want annual subscription - nope. I will find this info elsewhere.

Now costs money. Really disappointed that the update has now included a yearly subscription cost

ASRA is greedy. Paid for this app years ago only to find that ASRA has recently become increasingly greedy and now charges a yearly subscription for it! Can I get a refund for the app I purchased and can no longer use?

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Poor Quality. Although it is a paid app, it still opens with an advertisement that cannot be skipped. Also has a bug that requests to follow your activity that will not allow a selection, thus freezing the app.

NOW IT’S A SUBSCRIPTION. paid for the app back then. Now they force you to play for subscription. Will delete

Easiest app to use.. This app does exactly what it's built to do. Great resource. In my top ten medical apps

Now a paid subscription.. What was an amazing app used by tons of trainees and attending anesthesiologists is no longer free. Truly disappointing.

Now charging a subscription. Paid for the app when I was a resident. Now it’s forcing me to sign up for a subscription

Just what we need in the OR. Great reference for non-anesthesia personnel to guide treatment. Great for learners as well.

Nice simple app. The ASRA coag guidelines have always been deeply unmemorable and with this application I don't even have to pretend to keep them in my head. Nice to have on hand.

Great App. Easy to use and has all the rules to live by when you put needles in people for a living. Invaluable.

What a crock. Long term user, they now want 6.99 per year? What a joke.

Great app but missing some anticoagulants. I think it's a simple to use, well put together app, but it is missing some newer anticoagulants, I know there is no good data for many of these but it would still be nice to have some information such as half life, etc of these newer drugs.

Superb app. Well worth the price. Concise, authoritative, and easy to use.

Greedy. Totally unacceptable greedy. Do not support this organization.

Subscription fee. I just paid for this app 4 months ago. Now they’re requiring an annual subscription fee. First off, if I JUST paid 4 months ago then that should count as my annual fee for this year. I’m not paying $12 (4.99 for initial fee + 6.99 annual fee) for this app.

Ripoff. Paid for this app years ago. Now I have to pay yearly. Cash grab
