About

NephroCalc

Features
Read full description

Built by a nephrology fellow navigating the daily grind of rounds, consults, and ICU calls. During training, I found myself constantly reaching for calculators to work through electrolyte corrections, acid-base disorders, and GFR estimates. This app is my answer to that: a single, streamlined tool with the formulas I actually use, organized the way I think about them. Whether you're calculating free water deficit at 2 AM or double-checking an anion gap on rounds, KidneyCalc aims to be the fastest path from question to answer. It's designed by someone doing the work, for others doing the work.
