CD Acquisitions, LLC

Certa Dose (operated by CD Acquisitions, LLC) is a medical safety company focused on eliminating dosing errors, particularly in emergency and pediatric settings. The company develops innovative dosing solutions centered on visual verification and cognitive offloading to prevent medication administration errors. Their core mission addresses a critical patient safety gap: studies indicate that 70% of dosing errors occur during drug administration and are missed by electronic ordering systems, with pediatric patients facing 3x higher error risk than adults. The company's primary product offering is the Certa Dose app—a digital solution that enables healthcare providers to visualize the correct medication volume, select appropriate syringes, and document dosing procedures. The app supports weight-based dosing calculations for patients of varying ages and sizes, allowing clinicians to enter actual patient weight or estimate it using length or age parameters when exact measurements are unavailable. The platform employs color-coded confirmation systems and visual verification protocols to enhance accuracy and communication clarity among care teams. Physical product offerings include the PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) Syringe Holder Kit, designed specifically for pediatric emergency codes, and an Epinephrine Convenience Kit for anaphylaxis management across the neonatal-to-adult dosing spectrum. The company also manufactures a pediatric measuring tape for weight estimation during emergencies. These products are positioned as essential tools for emergency departments, pediatric units, and critical care environments where dosing accuracy directly impacts patient survival.
