VTE risk stratification in patients with Cancer

Risk assessment models are used to stratify cancer patients according to their underlying risk of VTE. The CATS score has been shown to enhance VTE risk stratification as compared to the modified Khorana score by incorporating d-dimer and soluble p-selectin measurements. Our aim was to evaluate the performance of the CATS score with respect to VTE risk stratification.
