Revised Geneva Score, rGeneva online calculator

Scales for assessing the clinical probability of PE are used in stable patients (without shock, without hypotension) with suspected pulmonary embolism. They allow you to determine the sequence of diagnostic procedures to confirm or exclude the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism.

Interpretation of obtained results (clinical probability of PE)
Probability | Points | Clinical advice |
Low probability | 0–3 points | Perform D-dimer testing: -if D-dimer testing is negative consider stopping workup, -if D-dimer testing is positive consider CT-angiography |
Intermediate probability | 4-10 points | Perform D-dimer testing: -if D-dimer testing is negative consider stopping workup, -if D-dimer testing is positive consider CT-angiography |
High probability | ≥11 points | Consider CT-angiography |
