# Revised Trauma Score (RTS) Calculator

> Revised Trauma Score (RTS) Calculator is a paid API for AI agents from api.magentlab.com, paid per call via x402, $0.005/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Computes the Revised Trauma Score (Champion 1989) from GCS, systolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate — returning coded values, T-RTS sum, and weighted RTS.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability revised-trauma-score-rts-calculator-ec211eb7
```

Example prompt: Calculate the Revised Trauma Score for a patient with a GCS of 13, systolic blood pressure of 110 mm Hg, and respiratory rate of 18 breaths per minute — I need both the T-RTS and the weighted RTS.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a deterministic, citation-exact implementation of Champion 1989 Revised Trauma Score — not the original 1981 Trauma Score, not ISS, and not an AI-estimated triage order. Ideal for trauma registry documentation, research pipelines, or clinical decision support tooling where reproducibility and citation fidelity matter.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required parameter (gcs, systolic_mm_hg, or respiratory_rate) returns a 4xx error
- GCS outside 3–15 range may return a validation error or unexpected coded value
- Systolic BP outside 0–300 or respiratory rate outside 0–80 may cause out-of-range errors
- Payment not included or insufficient (x402) results in a 402 Payment Required response

## How this service works

Revised Trauma Score (Champion 1989): coded GCS, SBP, and respiratory rate (0-4 each), T-RTS as their sum (0-12), and weighted RTS = 0.9368·GCS + 0.7326·SBP + 0.2908·RR. Deterministic published arithmetic with citation. Not a triage order; not ISS; not the 1981 Trauma Score.

## Output

Returns the coded value (0–4) for each of GCS, systolic BP, and respiratory rate according to Champion 1989 published bands; the T-RTS (their sum, 0–12); and the weighted RTS (0.9368 × coded GCS + 0.7326 × coded SBP + 0.2908 × coded RR). All arithmetic is deterministic and citation-grounded.
