What it computes

Compute the San Francisco Syncope Rule (CHESS) criterion count and rule-positive flag from published cutoffs.

When to use

When an agent needs the published CHESS arithmetic and must not invent a disposition from a syncope narrative.

When not to use

  • Not a disposition protocol. Rule-positive means any CHESS criterion, not a diagnosis.
  • Derivation cohort was emergency-department syncope. magent applies the published hematocrit <30% and SBP <90 mm Hg cutoffs; it does not interpret an ECG.

Formula

CHESS = chf + hematocrit_lt_30 + abnormal_ecg + shortness_of_breath + systolic_bp_lt_90; rule-positive if score ≥ 1; max 5

Worked example

All CHESS criteria negative

Given: abnormal_ecg=falsechf=falsehematocrit_percent=40shortness_of_breath=falsesystolic_bp_mm_hg=120

  1. CHF absent; hematocrit 40% (≥30); ECG not abnormal; no dyspnea; SBP 120 (≥90)
  2. Score = 0; rule-positive false

Expect HTTP 402 and a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header until you retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Incomplete query params return HTTP 400 before any quote or charge. HTTP 503 after a signature: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE — that is not a new 402.

curl -i -H "Accept: application/json" "https://api.magentlab.com/api/calc/sf_syncope?chf=false&hematocrit_percent=40&abnormal_ecg=false&shortness_of_breath=false&systolic_bp_mm_hg=120"

Parameters

Name Type Required Description
chf boolean required History of congestive heart failure (C). true or false.
hematocrit_percent number required Hematocrit in percent (10-70). Scores 1 when <30; 30 is negative.
abnormal_ecg boolean required Abnormal ECG (E). true or false. Caller-assigned; magent does not read tracings.
shortness_of_breath boolean required Shortness of breath (S). true or false.
systolic_bp_mm_hg number required Systolic BP in mm Hg (50-250). Scores 1 when <90; 90 is negative.

Bulk (POST)

POST the same path with a JSON items array. Price is n times the GET unit. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.

POST /api/calc/sf_syncope Max 25 unit_amount * n PREVIEW

  • 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
  • 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.

Example request (fixture)

  "items": [

Payment

Required query parameters must be present and valid. 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.

Guarantees

  • Invalid query parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged.
  • Settlement finishes before the tool executes (paymentFlow upfront). 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.
