health.qrisk-inputs-validate

Check a QRISK3 cardiovascular risk input set against the calculator's published ranges; does not compute risk.

1.0.0 (not the latest) · published 2026-10-03 by charlie · Anterra

Pinned by 29 tests, run in TypeScript, Python and Rust.

Not professional advice. This capability calculates health figures from published rules. It is a software component for developers, not medical advice. Rules change and every rate here has an effective date. Check that the dates cover your case. Verify results against the official sources listed in its README, and have a primary-care clinician review how you use it, before anyone relies on the output. Provided “as is” under its licence, without warranty.

Not a medical device. It is not intended to diagnose, treat or support clinical decisions about any individual. Anyone building it into clinical software is responsible for that software’s regulatory status, and must validate it under their own clinical governance.

What it does

Status: needs review and sign-off by a qualified clinician before it is published. Not a medical device; for decision support only; always follow local clinical guidelines.

Checks that a set of inputs is fit to be given to the QRISK3 cardiovascular risk calculator. **It does NOT compute risk.** QRISK3 itself is a licensed algorithm (ClinRisk / Endeavour Predict); use an accredited implementation for the score. This capability catches the data problems before the call: missing required values, values outside the ranges the calculator accepts, a height without a weight, and people QRISK3 is not valid for.

For example

  • validate_qrisk_inputs(age 64, sex male, ethnicity indian, postcode SW1A 1AA, smoking ex-smoker, diabetes type-2, family history cvd true, chronic kidney disease false, atrial fibrillation false, blood …) → valid true, errors a complete, valid input set
  • validate_qrisk_inputs(age 40, sex female, ethnicity white-or-not-stated, postcode —, smoking non-smoker, diabetes none, family history cvd false, chronic kidney disease false, atrial fibrillation false…) → valid true, errors the minimum: required fields only, every optional one null
  • validate_qrisk_inputs(age 25, sex female, ethnicity white-or-not-stated, postcode —, smoking non-smoker, diabetes none, family history cvd false, chronic kidney disease false, atrial fibrillation false…) → valid true, errors age 25 is the youngest accepted

The function

The same function in TypeScript, Python and Rust, pinned by the same tests. Pick your language; the choice follows you around the registry.

pub fn validate_qrisk_inputs(inputs: &QriskInputs) -> QriskInputsValidation
inputsQriskInputsthe values a QRISK3 calculation would be given; null where not recorded
returnsQriskInputsValidationevery problem found, in field order; valid when there are none

Install

fune build

With that line in your source, in a Rust project (language rust in fune.project), fune build resolves it and its 1 dependency, pins them in fune.lock, downloads only the Rust package of each, and builds the code above into your project’s .fune/build, one readable file per capability with a header linking back here. A crate’s build.rs runs it before every compile. Or pin a range in fune.project and build in one step:

fune add health.qrisk-inputs-validate
Download for Rust health.qrisk-inputs-validate-1.0.0-rust.fune · 50,353 bytes sha256 4e87aa373f80bb8f2fc366b893c6b1f2e3c65bc7a4987597751eb75dff254414

The manifest, vectors and README with only the Rust implementation. Install it without the registry with fune add ./health.qrisk-inputs-validate-1.0.0-rust.fune, or fetch it from a terminal with fune pull health.qrisk-inputs-validate@1.0.0:rust.

The whole function, every language, is one file too: health.qrisk-inputs-validate-1.0.0.fune, 61,521 bytes, sha256 02f4cd96b767c5a006fbded8d7c9fd1047eb8801fb9f7c7f37aab107d9f218c1. It installs into a project of any language.

Customise it in your app

The seams this capability offers. Put a marker directly above a function of your own and fune build wires it into the built code; the package on the registry is not changed, the built file’s header lists it under CUSTOMISED, and fune hooks lists every hook in the project. How hooks work.

before — your function gets the arguments and returns them, changed or not, or throws to refuse the call.

// fune: before health.qrisk-inputs-validate

after — your function gets the result and the arguments, and returns the final result.

// fune: after health.qrisk-inputs-validate

replace — inside this capability’s code only, calls to a dependency go to your function, with the same signature. Other capabilities that use it are unaffected; write in * to replace it everywhere.

// fune: replace validation.uk-postcode in health.qrisk-inputs-validate

step — your function runs at a numbered point inside the function’s body, receives the in-scope values it names as parameters, and may return replacements. List the points with fune show health.qrisk-inputs-validate --steps.

// fune: step health.qrisk-inputs-validate after <n|label>

Tests

A version published now needs at least 8 tests for every function, and one that expects the error for each function that throws; the registry refuses it otherwise. fune verify --all runs each case in TypeScript, Python and Rust, and a project runs them again with fune verify. This page lists the cases; it does not run them. The exact JSON is vectors.json.

a height with a fraction is refused: the calculator takes whole centimetres age 40, sex female, ethnicity white-or-not-stated, postcode —, smoking non-smoker, diabetes none, family history cvd false, chronic kidney disease false, atrial fibrillation false… → error: heightCm must be a whole number or null

More from the author

Every problem is reported, not just the first, in the order of the `QriskInputs` fields and then `existingCvd` and `onStatins`, each with the field name, a reason code and a message in the calculator's own wording where it has one. The result is `valid` only when there are none.

## The published input definitions

From the QRISK3 calculator form at https://qrisk.org and its client-side validation script https://qrisk.org/form.v003.js:

| Field | Required | Accepted | |---|---|---| | age | yes | whole years, 25 to 84 | | sex | yes | `female`, `male` | | ethnicity | yes | `white-or-not-stated`, `indian`, `pakistani`, `bangladeshi`, `chinese`, `other-asian`, `black-caribbean`, `black-african`, `other` | | postcode | no ("leave blank if unknown") | a valid UK postcode (checked with validation.uk-postcode) | | smoking | yes | `non-smoker`, `ex-smoker`, `light` (under 10 a day), `moderate` (10 to 19), `heavy` (20 or more) | | diabetes | yes | `none`, `type-1`, `type-2` | | cholesterolHdlRatio | no | 1.0 to 11.0 | | systolicBp | no | whole mmHg, 70 to 210 | | systolicBpSd | no | 0.0 to 40.0 (SD of at least two recent systolic readings) | | heightCm, weightKg | no, but both or neither | whole cm 140 to 210; whole kg 40 to 180 |

The eleven yes/no conditions (family history, CKD 3-5, AF, treated hypertension, migraine, rheumatoid arthritis, SLE, severe mental illness, atypical antipsychotics, regular steroid tablets, erectile dysfunction) are booleans and cannot be invalid.

The calculator states that it "is only valid if you do not already have a diagnosis of coronary heart disease (including angina or heart attack) or stroke/transient ischaemic attack, and not on statins", so `existingCvd` or `onStatins` being true is reported as `not-applicable`.

The codes for the categorical fields are this capability's own lower-case spellings of the calculator's options; the fields are plain strings, not enums, because the point is to check raw recorded values.

## Edge cases and decisions

- **Height and weight are whole numbers** in the published form ("enter an integer"). Round a recorded 172.5 cm before calling; a fractional height is refused with an error (it is a type error, thrown in every language, not a reported clinical problem), as is a fractional age or systolic pressure. A whole number sent as 170.0 is accepted. - **A lone height or weight** is reported against the missing one, with the calculator's "only entered one of height and weight" message. - **A blank postcode** (empty or spaces) is treated as unknown, as on the form. - **Units are not converted.** A height of 2 (metres) is out of range, not 200 cm. A total cholesterol typed into the ratio field cannot be told apart from a ratio if it is between 1 and 11: that is for the caller. - **Erectile dysfunction** is, as far as we know, a term of the male QRISK3 equation only (BMJ 2017; the paper's tables were not re-read for this package); the calculator's form does not reject it for women and neither does this. - The ranges are the calculator's input limits, not clinical normal ranges.
