Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.

What it computes

Sum the four Nunez 2009 ABC (assessment of blood consumption) arrival factors and return score_ge_2 at the published ≥2 cutoff.

When to use

When an agent needs the published Nunez 2009 ABC point total and the ≥2 cutoff flag and must not invent an MTP activation or transfusion order.

When not to use

  • Not a medical device and not a massive-transfusion protocol (MTP) or transfusion order. magent does not decide whether to activate MTP.
  • ABC ≥2 was 75% sensitive and 86% specific for massive transfusion in Nunez 2009; score_ge_2 is that published classification cutoff, not an order.
  • Penetrating mechanism and positive FAST are caller-assigned. magent does not interpret FAST images or assign injury mechanism.
  • This is Nunez 2009 ABC only. It is not TASH, not ABC/2 ICH volume, and not a blood-product volume estimate.

Formula

ABC = penetrating + sbp_le_90 + hr_ge_120 + positive_fast; each 1; max 4; score_ge_2 iff score >= 2

  1. score = 0
  2. score_ge_2 = false

Penetrating mechanism and positive FAST

Given: heart_rate_bpm=80penetrating=truepositive_fast=truesystolic_mm_hg=120

Call

Expect HTTP 402 until you retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Incomplete query params return HTTP 400 before any quote or charge.

curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" "https://api.magentlab.com/api/calc/abc_score?penetrating=false&systolic_mm_hg=120&heart_rate_bpm=80&positive_fast=false"

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
penetrating boolean required Penetrating injury mechanism as assigned by the caller (Nunez 2009). true or false. magent does not assign mechanism.
systolic_mm_hg integer required Arrival systolic blood pressure in mm Hg (integer 0-300). ≤90 scores 1.
heart_rate_bpm integer required Arrival heart rate in beats per minute (integer 30-220). ≥120 scores 1.
positive_fast boolean required Positive FAST as assigned by the caller (Nunez 2009). true or false. magent does not interpret FAST images.

Bulk (POST)

POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.

POST /api/calc/abc_score Max 25 unit_amount + extra_item_amount * (n - 1) extra $0.002 PREVIEW

  • 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
  • POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
  • The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
  • HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
  • Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
  • x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

Payment

Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64 PAYMENT-REQUIRED header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake and shared payment errors: Payments. Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.

Guarantees

  • HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged.
  • exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
  • HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
  • Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
  • Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
