VTE-BLEED Bleeding Risk (on anticoagulation)
VTE-BLEED score for major bleeding risk on extended anticoagulation after venous thromboembolism; ≥ 2 points flags elevated risk.

Example
- Anemia
- Yes
- Age ≥ 60
- Yes
Result: VTE-BLEED 3 — elevated bleeding risk (≥ 2).
The tool opens with these values already filled in. Replace them with your own.
What the result means
- Cut-point
- Total ≥ 2 = elevated bleeding risk; weighed against recurrence risk, it does not by itself stop anticoagulation.
What you enter
- Active cancer (2)
- Male with uncontrolled hypertension (1)
- Anemia (1.5)
- History of bleeding (1.5)
- Age ≥ 60 (1.5)
- Renal dysfunction CrCl 30–60 (1.5)
How this is calculated
- Points
- Active cancer 2; male with uncontrolled hypertension 1; anemia, prior bleeding, age ≥ 60, and renal dysfunction 1.5 each.
