Certa Dose

Certa Dose is a revolutionary system for safely dosing medication. Invented by an Emergency Medicine doctor intended to reduce the high rate of critical dosing errors with pediatrics. Certa Dose’s first product is a U.S. FDA- cleared syringe for use with the administration for epinephrine. Each syringe is labeled with easy to recognize color zones that match the widely adopted Standard Pediatric Color Coding System for Weight.  Independent simulated studies suggest that color-coded syringes may significantly reduce critical dosing error1,2. The Epinephrine Convenience Kit for Anaphylaxis is Check & Inject compliant for BLS and indicated for all pediatric patients, including those under 15 kg.
