# Neuropathic Pain Scale (Galer) Neuropathic Pain Scale (Galer) Status: LIVE Price: $0.005 USDC `GET /api/calc/nps` HTML: https://magentlab.com/docs/nps Markdown: https://magentlab.com/docs/nps.md Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation. ## What it computes Sum ten caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS integers (0-10) printed as Intense, Sharp, Hot, Dull, Cold, Sensitive, Itchy, Unpleasant, Deep, and Surface, and return that total (max 100). ## When to use When an agent already has Galer 1997 0-10 integers for those ten printed qualities and needs their sum, not a neuropathy diagnosis, interview, or later composite cutoff. ## When not to use - Not a medical device and not a diagnosis of neuropathy or a treatment order. - Each of the ten items is a caller-assigned integer 0-10 from Galer 1997 Table 1 (Intense, Sharp, Hot, Dull, Cold, Sensitive, Itchy, Unpleasant, Deep, Surface). magent does not interview the patient. - Galer 1997 printed item-level 0-10 scores and did not print a diagnostic cutoff for a summed total. magent returns the sum of those ten items (max 100) without a neuropathy-yes/no threshold and does not apply later NPS4, NPS6, NPS8, or NPS10 composites. - The categorical time-quality item on that instrument is not a 0-10 score and is not an input. ## Formula ``` NPS = intensity + sharpness + heat + dullness + cold + sensitive + itchy + unpleasantness + deep_pain + surface_pain; each caller-assigned 0-10; max 100; Galer 1997 Table 1 Intense, Sharp, Hot, Dull, Cold, Sensitive, Itchy, Unpleasant, Deep, Surface; no total-score cutoff ``` ## Citation [Development and preliminary validation of a pain measure specific to neuropathic pain: the Neuropathic Pain Scale](https://doi.org/10.1212/WNL.48.2.332) Galer BS, Jensen MP Neurology. 1997;48:332-338 DOI: [10.1212/WNL.48.2.332](https://doi.org/10.1212/WNL.48.2.332) ## Worked example ### All items 0 Given: `cold=0, deep_pain=0, dullness=0, heat=0, intensity=0, itchy=0, sensitive=0, sharpness=0, surface_pain=0, unpleasantness=0` 1. intensity, sharpness, heat, dullness, cold, sensitive, itchy, unpleasantness, deep_pain, and surface_pain are 0 as assigned by the caller 2. Score = 0 (max 100). Galer 1997 published no total-score diagnostic cutoff. ### Mixed printed items Given: `cold=0, deep_pain=6, dullness=1, heat=2, intensity=4, itchy=0, sensitive=0, sharpness=3, surface_pain=2, unpleasantness=5` 1. intensity 4 + sharpness 3 + heat 2 + dullness 1 + cold 0 + sensitive 0 + itchy 0 + unpleasantness 5 + deep_pain 6 + surface_pain 2 2. Score = 23 (max 100). No total-score diagnostic cutoff. ## Also searched as - Neuropathic Pain Scale - Galer NPS - Galer Jensen NPS - NPS Galer 1997 - neuropathic pain qualities - Neuropathic Pain Scale Galer ## Parameters - `intensity` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS intensity (integer 0-10; Table 1 Intense). magent does not interview the patient. - `sharpness` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS sharpness (integer 0-10; Table 1 Sharp). magent does not interview the patient. - `heat` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS heat (integer 0-10; Table 1 Hot). magent does not interview the patient. - `dullness` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS dullness (integer 0-10; Table 1 Dull). magent does not interview the patient. - `cold` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS cold (integer 0-10; Table 1 Cold). magent does not interview the patient. - `sensitive` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS sensitive (integer 0-10; Table 1 Sensitive). magent does not interview the patient. - `itchy` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS itchy (integer 0-10; Table 1 Itchy). magent does not interview the patient. - `unpleasantness` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS overall unpleasantness (integer 0-10; Table 1 Unpleasant). magent does not interview the patient. - `deep_pain` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS intensity of deep pain (integer 0-10; Table 1 Deep). magent does not interview the patient. - `surface_pain` (integer, required): Caller-assigned Galer 1997 NPS intensity of surface pain (integer 0-10; Table 1 Surface). magent does not interview the patient. ## 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. Method: `POST /api/calc/nps` Max items: 25 Price: unit_amount + extra_item_amount * (n - 1) (unit 5000 atomic, extra 2000 atomic) Status: 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.

Returned before settlement; you are not charged. - HTTP 400 `invalid_items`: POST body must be a JSON object with only an items array Returned before settlement; you are not charged. - HTTP 400 `invalid_item_count`: items must be an array of 1 to 25 objects Returned before settlement; you are not charged. - HTTP 400 `invalid_item`: each items entry must be a JSON object Returned before settlement; you are not charged. Shared HTTP 402 and 503: https://magentlab.com/docs/payments ## Related tools - [PAINAD](https://magentlab.com/docs/painad) — Sum five caller-assigned Warden 2003 PAINAD integers (0-2) and return the published total (max 10). ## 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. - GET the tool with Accept: application/json (do not send Accept: text/html unless you want the human paywall). - HTTP 402 means you have not paid. Decode the base64 PAYMENT-REQUIRED header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote. - Sign accepts[0] (exact, EIP-3009) with validBefore = now + maxTimeoutSeconds (600 seconds), or accepts[1] (batch-settlement deposit/voucher) on product GET. Ping and POST {items} stay exact. Magent retries transient facilitator 429/5xx before answering. - Retry the same URL with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE (base64 JSON of accepted and payload). Magent attaches canonical extensions.bazaar on CDP verify/settle; echoing 402 bazaar is optional. - Success is HTTP 200 JSON plus PAYMENT-RESPONSE. exact settles before the tool. batch-settlement verifies (and deposit-settles) before the tool and commits the charge after HTTP 2xx. HTTP 503: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Mint a new exact nonce only after a new HTTP 402. - offered `exact` on eip155:8453: Fixed-price USDC on Base. The buyer authorizes the advertised amount (EIP-3009). magent settles before the tool runs (paymentFlow upfront). extra.assetTransferMethod=eip3009 extra.paymentFlow=upfront. - offered `batch-settlement` on eip155:8453: Payment-channel vouchers claimed later in batches. Exact stays accepts[0]. Same-path POST {items} is still exact. extra.assetTransferMethod=eip3009 extra.paymentFlow=authorization. - not offered `upto`: Not offered. Usage-based: buyer authorizes a ceiling, seller settles the actual amount after work. Reserved for a future metered tool. Not for current calculators or code search. Same-path POST {items} is still scheme exact: one EIP-3009 authorization for GET unit plus $0.002 per extra item. That is not x402 batch-settlement (payment channels / vouchers). Shared HTTP 402 and 503 table: https://magentlab.com/docs/payments Stdio MCP (one process per host): https://magentlab.com/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.
