## Description

Fast, glove-friendly NEWS2 scoring for the field. Tap the vitals, get score and risk level instantly — fully offline, no data collected. Built for paramedics & EMTs.

NEWS2 Calc puts the National Early Warning Score 2 at your fingertips — built for paramedics, EMTs and other prehospital providers who need a reliable score in seconds, not minutes.

Tap through the seven NEWS2 parameters on large, glove-friendly buttons and get the total score, risk category and recommended response instantly. No typing, no menus, no signal required.

FEATURES

• Tap-to-score bands for all seven NEWS2 parameters: respiration rate, oxygen saturation, supplemental oxygen, systolic blood pressure, pulse, consciousness (ACVPU) and temperature
• Full support for SpO₂ Scale 1 and Scale 2 (hypercapnic respiratory failure), including correct air/oxygen scoring
• Instant risk stratification — total score, risk category and response guidance update with every tap
• Single-parameter red flag: any vital scoring 3 points is factored into the risk category, per the official guideline
• Score summary card: when scoring is complete, view a timestamped card showing the score and all entered parameters, one tap to save it directly to your photo library — useful for handover documentation or your own records
• Color-coded score bands mirror the paper NEWS2 chart, so the layout feels familiar from day one
• Dark mode by default, made for night shifts — switch to light mode with one tap
• Works completely offline — in the ambulance, in the basement, in the middle of nowhere

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

No accounts, no ads, no analytics. The app collects nothing, stores nothing and transmits nothing — patient data never leaves the moment.

IMPORTANT

NEWS2 Calc is a calculation aid. It does not replace clinical judgement, local protocols or medical direction, and a low score does not rule out serious illness. NEWS2 is validated for adults aged 16 and over; it is not validated for children or during pregnancy. SpO₂ Scale 2 must only be used for patients with confirmed hypercapnic respiratory failure on the direction of a competent clinician.
