What it computes

Estimate sodium (cation) deficit from weight, sex-specific TBW, and measured serum Na versus a chosen target.

When to use

When an agent needs Adrogué–Madias deficit arithmetic and must not invent TBW or a replacement amount.

When not to use

• Not a treatment order and not a sodium infusion protocol. The result is an estimate of cation deficit versus a target sodium, not a dosing or correction-rate order.
• Does not model ongoing losses, SIADH, or the safe rate of correction. Sex-only TBW fractions (0.6 male, 0.5 female); no extra elderly adjustment.

Formula

TBW_L = 0.6 * weight_kg (male) or 0.5 * weight_kg (female); sodium_deficit_mmol = TBW_L * (desired_na_mmol_l - sodium_mmol_l)

Worked example

Try

Opens the live endpoint. Unpaid browser requests show the paywall; agents should send Accept: application/json.

/api/calc/sodium_deficit?weight_kg=70&sex=male&sodium_mmol_l=120&desired_na_mmol_l=140

Full URL: https://api.magentlab.com/api/calc/sodium_deficit?weight_kg=70&sex=male&sodium_mmol_l=120&desired_na_mmol_l=140

x402 V2 curl

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/sodium_deficit?weight_kg=70&sex=male&sodium_mmol_l=120&desired_na_mmol_l=140"

Cursor mcp.json

Intended config for @magent/mcp. This is not npm @x402/fetch (a payment fetch wrapper).

Parameters

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/sodium_deficit 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": [
    {
      "desired_na_mmol_l": "140",
      "sex": "male",
      "sodium_mmol_l": "120",
      "weight_kg": "70"
    },
    {
      "desired_na_mmol_l": "140",
      "sex": "male",
      "sodium_mmol_l": "120",
      "weight_kg": "70"
    }
  ]
}

Open bulk paywall →

Opens a two-item fixture on the API host. Unpaid browsers get the same MetaMask paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with those 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.
