Calculate by QxMD and MDCalc Medical Calculator

Introduction

With the advancement in technology, a wide variety of medical calculators are now available on App store.

Today, I would like to recommend two of my favourite free medical calculators that also work offline.



MDCalc Medical Calculator

Summary

A medical calculator app is an essential tool in my daily work.

  • It not only makes memorizing complex formulas a thing of the past but also ensures calculations are faster and more accurate.
  • For example, the CKD-EPI 2021 update is much more complicated than the Cockcroft-Gault equation and a calculator app handles it with ease.
If you know of any other decent, free medical calculator apps, please feel free to leave a comment.
