I am interested in knowing of any web sites that are experimenting with or have implemented web calculators. I seem to recall some discussion on this some time ago but failed to record the web sites.Dear Ron,Our nephrologists harrass us with requests to include these calculations on the our LIS cumulative report but many of these could seemingly be done more easily in the physician's office by the MD himself instead to transferring information (height and weight) from a medical assistant to a specimen processor to a lab technical person who then has to look up other lab data and do the computations. These include such things as total body water, weekly KT/V, peritoneal dialysis calculations, estimated (urine-free) clearances from serum creatinine, etc.
