Standards and references

The standards the rule engine stands on.

The source of every score, formula and code in one place. Physicians can check where a formula comes from, and IT teams can check the data model.

Principles

Eight rules both products follow.

We list each standard we work against and where we stand on it. Where something is not finished yet, we say so.

Reproducible decisions

No generative model in the decision path. The same input and rule version always give the same output.

Mechanism
Versioned rule engine
Automated tests

Tamper-evident audit trail

Every assessment and decision is written to an append-only log. Each entry carries the digest of the previous one.

Human oversight

The system produces findings and risk signals. A qualified clinician or specialist makes the final decision.

Mechanism
Human-in-the-loop queue

Clinical measurement protocols

Clinical parameters are calculated with the correct method and unit. A score is never presented as a measurement.

Reference pages

Scores, formulas and data models.

Each page gives the formula or data model, the thresholds, the codes used and the original source.

This page is for information only and is not for clinical decisions. Decisions rest on the product information (SmPC/PIL), current guidelines and the physician's judgement. Last updated: 13 October 2026
