MIEMSS has developed both an iOS and an Android app designed for use on smartphones and tablets, serving as a replacement for the pocket protocol book.

These apps put the Maryland EMS Protocols in the palm of your hand, allowing you to search, navigate and view all protocols with no internet connection required, as all protocol information is built into the application on install.

► View The Full 2026 Protocol Book on your Android device with interactive table of contents and hyperlinks
► Search and Navigate the 2026 Protocols using expanding/collapsing menus for each protocol section and get to the information you need more quickly
► Calculate Brief Alcohol Withdrawal Scale score using our new calculator and view appropriate BLS/ALS guidance

The apps are compatible with iOS 15 and above, supporting devices as far back as the iPhone 6S (2012); and Android v7.0 Nougat (2016) or newer.

As of the July 2026 app update, search functionality is built directly into the Protocol navigation list. Simply click "Navigate Protocol List" on the home screen and the search bar will be available at the top of the Protocol list. This search field searches the entire text of the Protocol Book, listing out the titles of all pages which contain your search term for direct access.

This is an intentional feature to preserve the user experience. The current version of the Protocols contains a mixture of both portait and landscape content. Locking the screen orientation allows you to rotate your device to view that content just as you would a physical page. If screen rotation was allowed, users would be fighting with their device to view this landscape content intuitively.
