Latest reviews of Clinical Scales app for iPhone and iPad
I would give this app 5 star rating if it is not for a couple of small inconveniences. I am a psychiatrist working mainly with children and adolescents but also with selected adult population. For a very long time I was waiting for a decent set of scales that are easy to use and cover a range of conditions. This answered some of the questions. I appreciated The set is good and the servos allowing to email results with detailed answers. Especially I was pleasantly surprised to see adolescent scales there. However, in my practice I would greatly appreciate an ability to see patients progress. For that reason I have to have numerical value of the questionnaires One other annoyance is that I have to log in every time I called up the app. It takes valuable time making me looking at the screen instead of talking to a patient. I am not an expert in the field but I believe that fixing the above issues should be relatively easy.
Very helpful to have a portable version of these autism, depression and other diagnostic scales. Plus you can email yourself the results too
This app is very useful and so easy! Awesome that its free!
One of the best things on my phone. I find its great not only for performing actual tests with patients, but for general pocket reference as well. Pleased to see the bugs from previous versions have been worked out. And the best part is its free!
Nice to have these; wish there were even more!
