Frequently asked questions and contact.

How much does it cost?
The download is free and includes the scales and calculations that are free to use. The full version (clinical cases, ventilation and capnography simulators, protective ventilation and cardiogenic pulmonary edema simulation) costs US$29.99 as a one-time purchase, with no subscription. App improvements are free, and new content may be offered as an additional purchase without losing what you already have. Prices and content may change; purchases already made are kept. See the terms of use and commercial terms.
Which languages is the app in?
Spanish and English. Tap the globe icon on the home screen to change the language; your choice is saved on the phone. The interface, the scales and the simulation cases are translated.
How does the 3-day trial work?
From the “Full version” screen you can start a free 3-day trial, once per Apple ID. The trial includes 2 simulation cases per area and the capnography lab; the remaining cases and simulators come with the full version. There are no automatic charges: when it ends, the trial content is locked until you decide to buy.
I changed phones. How do I get my purchase back?
Open “Full version” and tap “Restore purchases” using the same Apple ID you bought it with.
Why are some well-known scales missing?
Some instruments require their authors’ permission for commercial use. ClinEscala only includes scales that are free to use or have their authors’ written backing, such as Glasgow, IMS and RASS.
Does the app save my assessments?
No. The data lives in memory while the app is open. To keep it, use Copy or Share and paste it into your records.
Can I use it to decide on a treatment?
Not on its own. It is an educational and support tool: every result must be combined with clinical assessment and confirmed with the treating physician and local protocols.
I found an error in a calculation or a reference
In the app, open About and use ▸ “Suggest an improvement / report an error”, fill in the form and tap “Send to ClinEscala”: your email app (Mail or Gmail) opens with the message ready to send. You can also write to the contact email with the tool, the values entered and the expected result. Do not include patient data.
Are the ventilation curves real?
No. They are simulations from a single-compartment lung model, designed for learning to read curves. They do not represent a patient.
Which iOS version do I need?
iOS 17 or later, on iPhone. On iPad it opens in iPhone mode.
