Health Calculators
Modern medicine has become more and more objective. The need to process data has increased, especially
quantitative data (numbers). For example the 'Body Mass Index' or the target
Heart Rate. Until recently, all these critical, somewhat difficult calculations
were unaccessible to the public. In fact, only selected physicians and healthcare professionals
were doing them by hand. Health 101 offers a unique alternative for Health Education
and Awareness. The Program not only takes care of the arithmetics, but also, allows
simultaneous computation of several health variables in one panel with one single click.

Cardiovascular Risk Assessment Tool
Health 101 features an innovative 'Cardiac Risk Assessment Tool'.
It evaluates Framingham Point Scores, Major Risk Factors and Metabolic Syndrome based on the National Cholesterol
Education Program (ATP III Guidelines). This comprehensive resource allows users to calculate
the so-called Heart Disease 10-year Risk with ease and reliability
(see sample). It also enables Users
-for the first time- to perform 'What if' analysis of different risk-reduction scenarios.
The tool facilitates organization and management of
custom personal health data.
Full of Capabilities
Health 101 proprietary algorithms perform hundreds of functions
and computations. Some features include:
arithmetical processing
automatic unit conversion
multiple-unit entries
color-coded normal-abnormal outputs
normal values
automatic range-checks
intuitive interface
easy navigation and info access
English/Metric notation
organized and standardized
Based on Clinical Guidelines
Leading Technologies
ScyMed® Health 101 combines object-oriented programming and
the open standards of the Internet. It is a browser-based application,
which means that it runs on the www --world wide web-- browser, specifically,
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5/later.
The program is user-friendly and features intuitive graphical interfaces.
