What is Calculosaurus?
Calculosaurus aims to improve care in women's health through the development and provision of free clinical calculators. Launched in January 2017, Calculosaurus was founded to fill a gap in clinical calculator provision - although there are many clinical calculator providers in other areas of medicine, so far women's health has been somewhat neglected. Despite the paucity of available resources, there are many situations in O&G where clinical calculators are useful, helping to reduce error and simplify arduous calculations.
The founder of Calculosaurus, Sam Mathewlynn, is a trainee registrar in obstetrics and gynaecology in the Oxford Deanery, UK. Calculosaurus is run on a voluntary basis and does not generate any financial profit for those involved.
