Bedside calculators for health workers in Nepal
Six everyday calculations that work offline once the page has loaded. Nothing you type is sent anywhere — every value is computed in your browser.
Asian BMI cut-offs and WHO ORS volumes are used where they differ from global defaults.
BMI & nutrition status
Uses WHO Asian-population cut-offs, which classify risk at lower BMI than global thresholds.
BMI 22.0 kg/m² — Normal (Asian cut-off)
Blood pressure category
Based on office readings in adults; confirm with repeat measurement on a separate visit before diagnosing hypertension.
Normal blood pressure
Paediatric weight-based dose
Single-dose calculation only. Always cross-check the maximum daily dose and the child's renal and hepatic status.
180 mg per dose ≈ 7.5 mL of the syrup entered
ORS planning (WHO plan B)
For some dehydration: 75 mL/kg of low-osmolarity ORS over the first 4 hours, then reassess. Severe dehydration needs IV fluids.
Give about 750 mL ORS over 4 hours
Expected delivery date
Naegele's rule assumes a regular 28-day cycle; adjust for cycle length or dating scan findings.
Enter the first day of the last menstrual period
Glucose unit conversion
Converts plasma glucose between SI (mmol/L) and conventional (mg/dL) units.
5.5 mmol/L = 99 mg/dL
