CVT Outcome Risk Score
Cerebral-venous-thrombosis risk score: a 0-9 in-hospital poor-outcome predictor from malignancy, coma, deep venous thrombosis, mental-status disturbance, male sex, and intracranial hemorrhage; a total >= 3 predicts mRS > 2.

Example
- Malignancy
- Yes
- Coma / GCS < 9
- Yes
Result: CVT risk 4/9: a total >= 3 predicts a poor outcome (mRS > 2; sensitivity ~96%, specificity ~14%).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- Threshold
- a total of 3 or more predicts a poor outcome (mRS > 2) with sensitivity about 96% and specificity about 14%.
What you enter
- Malignancy (+2)
- Coma / GCS < 9 (+2)
- Deep venous system thrombosis (+2)
- Mental-status disturbance (+1)
- Male sex (+1)
- Intracranial hemorrhage (+1)
How this is calculated
- Components
- Malignancy (+2), Coma/GCS < 9 (+2), Deep venous thrombosis (+2), Mental-status disturbance (+1), Male sex (+1), Intracranial hemorrhage (+1); total 0-9.
