About MedikQuantis
MedikQuantis is an open collection of clinical calculators localised to Catalan and Spanish, with plain-language patient explanations on every calculator and the supporting evidence cited for every score. We currently cover cardiology and will add other medical fields progressively.
Who is behind it
A project by Laura Piñero Roig at the University of Barcelona. Open source under the MIT license, maintained as a solo project.
What it is
- An informational tool for clinicians and medical students.
- Faithful implementation of the original scores, with the PubMed citation on every page.
- Catalan and Spanish localisation by native speakers, not machine-translated.
- Patient mode with plain language and questions to ask the doctor.
What it is NOT
- NOT a diagnostic tool or a substitute for medical assessment.
- NOT issuing personalised therapeutic recommendations.
- NOT yet validated in local populations; the scores are the originals from the authors.
- NOT collecting user data; everything is computed in your browser.
Research roadmap
A series of external-validation papers is in development, applying each score to Iberian-population cohorts using public datasets (MIMIC-IV, UK Biobank). When published, each calculator will display a local-validation badge linked to the corresponding paper.
