More about: Wells Score (DVT) (Wells score (DVT), points)

What it calculates

The “Wells Score (DVT) (Wells score (DVT), points)” calculator computes Wells score (DVT), points from 10 parameters: active cancer (treatment within 6 months or palliative) (1 = yes), paralysis, paresis or recent leg cast (1 = yes), bedridden >3 days or major surgery within 12 weeks (1 = yes), localized tenderness along deep veins (1 = yes), entire leg swollen (1 = yes), calf swelling >3 cm vs the other leg (1 = yes), pitting edema in the symptomatic leg (1 = yes), collateral superficial veins (non-varicose) (1 = yes), previous dvt (1 = yes), alternative diagnosis at least as likely (1 = yes).

A professional calculation for specialists.

Example calculation

With parameters Active cancer (treatment within 6 months or palliative) (1 = yes) = 1, Paralysis, paresis or recent leg cast (1 = yes) = 0, Bedridden >3 days or major surgery within 12 weeks (1 = yes) = 0, Localized tenderness along deep veins (1 = yes) = 0, Entire leg swollen (1 = yes) = 1, Calf swelling >3 cm vs the other leg (1 = yes) = 1, Pitting edema in the symptomatic leg (1 = yes) = 0, Collateral superficial veins (non-varicose) (1 = yes) = 0, Previous DVT (1 = yes) = 0, Alternative diagnosis at least as likely (1 = yes) = 0 the result is 3 (If DVT is unlikely — use D-dimer to rule out).

How to use

1. Enter active cancer (treatment within 6 months or palliative) (1 = yes), paralysis, paresis or recent leg cast (1 = yes), bedridden >3 days or major surgery within 12 weeks (1 = yes), localized tenderness along deep veins (1 = yes), entire leg swollen (1 = yes), calf swelling >3 cm vs the other leg (1 = yes), pitting edema in the symptomatic leg (1 = yes), collateral superficial veins (non-varicose) (1 = yes), previous dvt (1 = yes) and alternative diagnosis at least as likely (1 = yes) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
