James Broselow MD and Robert Luten MD have dedicated their lives to helping doctors and nurses make the correct decisions quickly. Artemis is their latest innovation to improve care, increase treatment efficiency, and save lives.

A History of Innovation

In the early 1980s, James Broselow was an emergency room doctor who saw how difficult it was to treat children in the ER. He decided there had to be a better way, and the Broselow Tape was born. This simple but effective color-coded tool determines body weight from body length and provides proper dosing and airway information for children.

Medical personnel everywhere now use the Broselow Tape to provide essential critical care to children applying the correct airway, raising blood pressure, and giving life-saving medications safely and without costly errors or delays. The Broselow Tape even made a cameo appearance on ER (see video below).

Robert Luten has performed pioneering work in the field of pediatric emergency medicine, helping to create the specialty of pediatric emergency medicine in 1993. A professor at the University of Florida, Luten has spearheaded the development of curriculum and training materials for pediatric emergency care. His particular expertise is in pediatric emergency drug dosing and emergency airway management.

Broselow & Luten: Acute Pediatric Dream Team

Broselow and Luten joined forces, using Broselow Tape concepts paired with Lutens extensive knowledge of acute pediatric care. They spent many years working on the underlying standard and content - incorporating feedback from a spectrum of doctors, nurses and pharmacists. Partnered with the nonprofit Pediatric Pharmacy Advocacy Group (PPAG), they created the Artemis Initiative, the underlying standard for Artemis and the suite of software systems from Artemis. The goal of the initiative is to develop a simple, safe and effective international standard for acute pediatric administration of drugs.

Artemis: The Next Chapter

Now Drs. Broselow and Luten have founded Artemis to bring these solutions to every emergency practitioners computer, iPad, or mobile device. With Artemis's Artemis software, providers of acute pediatric care can access comprehensive pediatric treatment information faster and more accurately than ever.

Men on a Mission

Broselow and Luten have a clear mission: to provide needed critical information to those administering acute pediatric care. To achieve that, they aim to get Artemis into as many hospitals as possible. Their ultimate goal: to improve care, save lives and make it easier for emergency medical staff to do their job. So far, the results are promising (see top video above for one success story).
