Reviews:
Great interface - and more than 'cardio' calculator  By: FM/ERDoc - 12-Jan-2009 Version: 1.2 The calculator uses QxMD's 'Question Flow' interface which makes this calculator easier to use than the competitors I have tried. The 'Question Flow' interface minimizes finger tapping and speeds data entry. The app is free, so download it and give it a try. This calculator doesn't have as many formulae/equations as some competitors but it has all the ones I commonly use. Many of the Information pages accompanying the formulae have live links to the articles where the formula originated. Very handy if you're not sure of the validity of the formula in your particular clinical situation. On the downside, there isn't a configurable 'custom' or 'favourites' list - at least in this revision. By the way, the name is a bit misleading - there are more formulae than just 'cardiac' ones. It is a great general medical calculator. I think this calculator is a winner. I look forward to future revisions and improvements

Very slick  By: Kevin O.C. - 16-Dec-2008 Version: 1.0 I just downloaded this and so far it definitely seems like one of the top medical calculator I've used on the iPhone. Data entry is very simple and speedy. Layout is clean. Lots of information for questions and answer. 5 stars for sure!

OMG!!!  By: Northsideallday - Feb 11, 2009 Version: 1.2 Love it
Nice but not for the layman  By: Moosefly - Dec 20, 2008 Version: 1.1 Coming from a doctor's family, I can see this would be very practical for medical practitioners, but those with limited medical backgrounds will not find this very useful.
Simple to use, great free app  By: SITM NS - 13-Jan-2009 Version: 1.2 Easy to use, stable, good interface. Useful content, like the fact that it has both CCS angina class as well as NYHA Functional Class. Couple of spelling mistakes (eg. "excersise") but otherwise excellent.
