REVEAL registry PAH risk score calculator

Group 1, subgroup Associated with CTD: +1 Associated with portal hypertension: +2 Heritable: +2
Demographics and comorbidities Renal insufficiency: +1 Males, age >60 years: +2
WHO functional class Class 1: -2 Class III: +1 Class IV: +2
Vital signs Systolic BP <110 mmHg: +1 Heart rate <92 bpm: +1
