What it calculates

The “MAGGIC Risk (HF)” calculator computes MAGGIC score from 13 parameters: age (years), lv ejection fraction (%), systolic bp (mmHg), body mass index (kg/m²), creatinine (µmol/L), nyha class (1–4), male sex (1 = yes), current smoker (1 = yes), diabetes mellitus (1 = yes), copd (1 = yes), heart failure diagnosed ≥18 months ago (1 = yes), not on beta-blocker (1 = yes), not on ace inhibitor/arb (1 = yes).

Used by professionals and patients to assess health metrics, dosages, and risks.

Example calculation

With parameters Age = 65 years, LV ejection fraction = 35 %, Systolic BP = 120 mmHg, Body mass index = 27 kg/m², Creatinine = 100 µmol/L, NYHA class (1–4) = 2, Male sex (1 = yes) = 1, Current smoker (1 = yes) = 0, Diabetes mellitus (1 = yes) = 0, COPD (1 = yes) = 0, Heart failure diagnosed ≥18 months ago (1 = yes) = 0, Not on beta-blocker (1 = yes) = 0, Not on ACE inhibitor/ARB (1 = yes) = 0 the result is 15 (For chronic heart failure (any ejection fraction)).

How to use

  1. Enter age, lv ejection fraction, systolic bp, body mass index, creatinine, nyha class (1–4), male sex (1 = yes), current smoker (1 = yes), diabetes mellitus (1 = yes), copd (1 = yes), heart failure diagnosed ≥18 months ago (1 = yes), not on beta-blocker (1 = yes) and not on ace inhibitor/arb (1 = yes) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
  2. MAGGIC score is calculated automatically as you type.

FAQ

How is BMI calculated?
BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)². Example: 70 kg / (1.75 m)² = 22.9. The WHO normal range is 18.5–24.9; below that is underweight, 25–29.9 is overweight, and 30+ is obese.
Is BMI accurate for everyone?
No. BMI does not distinguish muscle from fat, so athletes may show a high BMI with low body fat. It is also less reliable for teenagers, pregnant people, older adults, and very tall or short individuals.
What are the BMI categories?
Underweight: below 18.5. Normal: 18.5–24.9. Overweight: 25–29.9. Obese class I: 30–34.9; class II: 35–39.9; class III: 40+.
What is a better measure than BMI?
Body fat percentage, waist-to-height ratio (aim for under 0.5), and waist circumference give a clearer picture of health than BMI alone.
