Health Tools

Interactive versions of the assessments used in hospital clinics: the questionnaires anaesthetists, urologists, spine surgeons and endocrinologists actually score, plus the measurements a dietitian or bariatric team works from. Everything is calculated in your browser, so nothing you enter is sent to us or stored anywhere.

These are screening aids, not diagnoses. A score points you toward the right conversation; it never replaces one. If a result worries you, send us your case and a Clinic-Y coordinator will arrange a proper review, free of charge.

How clinicians use these

Before an operation abroad, three things decide how smoothly it goes: whether your airway is safe under anaesthetic, whether your metabolic and kidney function are stable, and whether the symptom you travelled for is severe enough to justify the procedure. STOP-BANG answers the first, the eGFR and diabetes tools speak to the second, and IPSS, Oswestry and the Norwood scale put numbers on the third. Bringing these scores to your first consultation shortens the assessment considerably.
