Predictive value of venous thromboembolism (VTE)‐BLEED to predict major bleeding and other adverse events in a practice‐based cohort of patients with VTE: results of the XALIA study

Venous thromboembolism (VTE)-BLEED, a decision tool for predicting major bleeding during chronic anticoagulation for VTE has not yet been validated in practice-based conditions. We calculated the prognostic indices of VTE-BLEED for major bleeding after day 30 and day 90, as well as for recurrent VTE and all-cause mortality, in 4457 patients enrolled in the international, prospective XALIA study. The median at-risk time was 190 days …
