REVEAL Lite 2 (PAH risk)

REVEAL Lite 2 (Benza 2021): a simplified pulmonary-arterial-hypertension risk score (1-14) predicting 1-year mortality from six routinely collected variables.

Example

eGFR
72
WHO functional class
Class III (+1)
Systolic BP
104
Heart rate
88
6-minute walk distance
300
BNP / NT-proBNP band
BNP >= 800 / NT-proBNP >= 1100 pg/mL (+2)

Result: REVEAL Lite 2 total 10 (1-14): high risk (1-year mortality 25.1%).

The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.

What the result means

Bands
low 1-5 (2.9% 1-year mortality), intermediate 6-7 (7.1%), high >= 8 (25.1%).

What you enter

  • eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m^2)
  • WHO functional class
  • Systolic BP (mm Hg)
  • Heart rate (beats/min)
  • 6-minute walk distance (m)
  • BNP / NT-proBNP band
How this is calculated
Variables
from a base of 6: renal insufficiency, WHO functional class, systolic BP, heart rate, 6-minute walk distance, and a BNP/NT-proBNP band, summed to 1-14.
