About this app

WikEM, The Global Emergency Medicine Wiki, is a point-of-care reference available on the web or via our dedicated mobile applications. Its emergency medicine knowledge base has thousands of quick problem-specific notes to help you care for patients, which is one of the reasons it has been downloaded by more than 100,000 users and is one of the top 10 most popular emergency medicine websites.

Supported by the nonprofit OpenEM Foundation, WikEM provides a way for medical practitioners to organize online content and cross-reference clinical information at http://www.wikem.org. If you are a medical practitioner, join our contributor community and help edit our content. WikEM is intended for clinicians only and not directly for patients.

WikEM serves a wide range of medical practitioners predominantly among the specialties of emergency medicine, pediatric emergency medicine, critical care, emergency medical services (EMS), and urgent care medicine, as well as primary healthcare fields such as family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatrics. Numerous sources have named WikEM as a key reference for emergency practitioners, ranging from EMTs, paramedics, and other first responders to nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and emergency physicians.

Ratings and reviews

Love it, comprehensive and most importantly update-able. Several dead end pages and a glitch or 2 but the skeleton is there to become a force in emergency medicine. This is the future beyond rosen and tintinalli, continually updated database of em based on ebm with citations. I'd wish access immediately without having to wait several minutes while the databases update if not used in a bit.

One of my essential ED companions. All relevant data in easy format. I appreciate their effort to make this great application available, and free. Update 17-10-2020 I still love this app, the only thing is the update. When I open the app it goes to update, mandatory, no option to cancel it, and it hangs and doesn't finish and doesn't open. I hope they will fix this update problem.

Excellent app! Really good to have such good summaries at your finger tips. I work in the UK so some of the treatments are very American based but the main reason I love this is for the differentials list for any disease. I've been using it for about 4 years and I have happily paid the donation price (although it is free). I recommend it to everyone!
