Allergology & Dermatology
6 calculators · SCORAD, EASI, POEM, UAS7, anaphylaxis
Here you will find pediatric online calculators for allergology and dermatology: the severity scores of atopic dermatitis SCORAD, EASI and POEM (Charman 2013), the Urticaria Activity Score UAS7 and the anaphylaxis epinephrine dose calculator according to EAACI 2021 and AWMF 061-025. The scores help to record skin findings and disease activity in a structured way and to document them over time; the dose calculator supports weight-based epinephrine administration in the acute situation, for example when an anaphylactic reaction is suspected. Each calculator states its formula and sources, so that you can trace every result.

Frequently asked questions
How do I calculate the SCORAD in atopic dermatitis?
The SCORAD calculator records extent (A), intensity (B) and subjective symptoms (C) and calculates A/5 + 7B/2 + C with a result of 0–103. Alternatives are EASI (0–72) and the patient questionnaire POEM (0–28).
What epinephrine dose applies in anaphylaxis in childhood?
The anaphylaxis epinephrine dose calculator gives epinephrine i.m. at 0.01 mg/kg (maximum 0.5 mg) and the matching autoinjector strength by weight, based on EAACI 2021 and AWMF 061-025. Both values are shown in the calculator with their source.
How do I assess the activity of chronic urticaria?
The UAS7 scores wheals and itching daily with 0–3 points each over 7 days. The sum ranges from 0–42 and is assigned to activity bands. The calculator serves to document the course and states the source of the activity bands.
