Usefulness of Simplified Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index Score for Identification of Patients With Low-Risk Pulmonary Embolism and Active Cancer From the COMMAND VTE Registry

摘要

BACKGROUND: The simplified Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (sPESI) score is a practical score for identification of patients with low-risk pulmonary embolism (PE), although it has not been applied in patients with active cancer. The current study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of the sPESI score in patients with PE and active cancer.
