This calculator estimates the chance of heart failure hospitalization or death within 90 days of discharge. It runs on four inputs and is meant to be quick enough to use on rounds.
Readmissions after an acute heart failure stay are stubborn, and a lot rides on the discharge decision. A fast risk estimate helps with the call on disposition, how closely to follow up, and whether someone needs more optimization before they leave.
It asks for four things: NT-proBNP, systolic blood pressure, left atrial volume index, and lung ultrasound B-lines. From those it places the patient on a 0 to 4 risk scale with plain-language guidance. You can expand any parameter to see what it means, which is handy for teaching, and copy a short summary straight into your note. The layout is built for a phone.
