When to use
When to use: clinic follow-up risk stratification in PAH when FC, vitals, 6MWD, NP, and renal status are available.
How it works
Sum FC/SBP/HR/6MWD/BNP|NTproBNP/eGFR points + 6; ≤5 low, 6–7 intermediate, ≥8 high.
Key points
- +6 correction.
- Six noninvasive vars.
- Next: REVEAL 2.0 / right-heart cath.

Worked calculation
The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.
| WHO/NYHA functional class | II (0) |
|---|---|
| Systolic BP | ≥110 mmHg (0) |
| Heart rate | ≤96 bpm (0) |
| 6-minute walk distance | 320–<440 m (−1) |
| Natriuretic peptide | BNP (pg/mL) |
| BNP band | 50–<200 (0) |
| NT-proBNP band | 300–<1100 (0) |
| eGFR <60 or renal insufficiency | No (0) |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Does REVEAL Lite 2 (PAH Risk) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
- Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
- How is REVEAL Lite 2 (PAH Risk) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
- Inputs: WHO/NYHA functional class II (0), Systolic BP ≥110 mmHg (0), Heart rate ≤96 bpm (0), 6-minute walk distance 320–<440 m (−1), Natriuretic peptide BNP (pg/mL), BNP band 50–<200 (0), NT-proBNP band 300–<1100 (0), eGFR <60 or renal insufficiency No (0) → Result: REVEAL Lite 2 5（Component sum: -1, Correction: +6, Cue: ≤5 — low risk (1-year mortality teaching band)） Inputs: WHO/NYHA functional class I (−1), Systolic BP ≥110 mmHg (0), Heart rate ≤96 bpm (0), 6-minute walk distance ≥440 m (−2), Natriuretic peptide BNP (pg/mL), BNP band <50 (−2), NT-proBNP band <300 (−2), eGFR <60 or renal insufficiency No (0) → Result: REVEAL Lite 2 1（Component sum: -5, Correction: +6, Cue: ≤5 — low risk (1-year mortality teaching band)）
