The app's features include easy-to-use drug dose calculations based on ideal, lean, and adjusted body weight, helping to mitigate complexities and potential errors in drug dosing for obese individuals. SOBA, affiliated with the Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland, comprises expert clinicians specializing in anaesthesia for bariatric surgery and obese patients, offering educational resources and guidelines for anaesthetic practices.
