Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Apply the Smith 2012 unweighted modified Sgarbossa rule from three caller-assigned ECG flags and return whether any criterion is met.
When to use
When an agent already has the three Smith 2012 modified Sgarbossa flags for a tracing with left bundle-branch block and needs whether the unweighted any-of rule is positive. magent does not measure the ECG. Use the original Sgarbossa 1996 5/3/2 points score when that published weighting is required.
When not to use
- Not a medical device.
- Not a diagnosis of myocardial infarction, STEMI equivalent, or reperfusion decision.
- magent does not measure the ECG. Each flag is caller-assigned.
- This is Smith 2012 unweighted modified Sgarbossa (any of three flags). Not the original Sgarbossa 1996 5/3/2 points score.
- Not a 5 mm discordant ST-elevation rule. The third flag is excessive discordant STE with ST/S ratio ≤ −0.25 as assigned by the caller.
Formula
modified_sgarbossa iff concordant_st_elevation_1mm or concordant_st_depression_v1_v3 or excessive_discordant_ste_st_s_ge_0_25 (Smith 2012 unweighted modified Sgarbossa; not Sgarbossa 1996 5/3/2 points; not a 5 mm discordant rule)

Worked example
All three flags false (modified Sgarbossa negative)
Given:
concordant_st_depression_v1_v3=falseconcordant_st_elevation_1mm=falseexcessive_discordant_ste_st_s_ge_0_25=false
- concordant_st_elevation_1mm false
- concordant_st_depression_v1_v3 false
- excessive_discordant_ste_st_s_ge_0_25 false
- modified_sgarbossa_any is false; modified_sgarbossa is false
Concordant ST elevation ≥1 mm only (modified Sgarbossa positive)
Given:
concordant_st_depression_v1_v3=falseconcordant_st_elevation_1mm=trueexcessive_discordant_ste_st_s_ge_0_25=false
- concordant_st_elevation_1mm true meets the first Smith 2012 criterion
- The other two flags are false
- modified_sgarbossa_any is true; modified_sgarbossa is true

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
concordant_st_elevation_1mm |
boolean | required | Concordant ST elevation ≥1 mm in a lead with a positive QRS as assigned by the caller (Smith 2012). true or false. magent does not measure the ECG. |
concordant_st_depression_v1_v3 |
boolean | required | Concordant ST depression ≥1 mm in V1, V2, or V3 as assigned by the caller (Smith 2012). true or false. magent does not measure the ECG. |
excessive_discordant_ste_st_s_ge_0_25 |
boolean | required | ≥1 mm discordant ST elevation with ST/S ratio ≤ −0.25 (STE ≥25% of the preceding S-wave depth) as assigned by the caller (Smith 2012). true or false. magent does not measure the ECG. Not the original Sgarbossa 1996 5 mm discordant rule. |
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.
- 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.

- Sgarbossa — Sum the three Sgarbossa 1996 GUSTO-1 ECG criteria in left bundle-branch block and return whether the total is ≥3.
- HEART score — Compute the HEART score as age points plus caller-assigned history, ECG, risk factors, and troponin (each 0-2).
- HEART Pathway — Apply the Mahler 2015 HEART Pathway and return whether a caller-assigned HEART score plus 0-hour and 3-hour troponin flags meet the published early-discharge rule.
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. HTTP 402 never includes the tool JSON.
- 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.
