©2013 UpToDate ® Print Email Algorithm for prediction of peri-procedural bleeding risk in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention Risk factors* Integer Intra-aortic balloon pump 5 Age 0 for ≤55 yrs; 3 for every 10 yrs over 55 Female gender 3 Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor 3 Baseline HCT <39 percent for men, <36 percent for women 2 LMWH within 48 hr pre-PCI 2 Risk score Major bleeding (percent) 0 1.0 2-6 1.5 7-9 2.6 ≥10 5.4 eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate; HCT: hematocrit; LMWH: low molecular weight heparin. * The presence of these risk factors leads to assignment of the corresponding integer, which are summated into a score for estimation of risk of peri-procedural bleeding after percutaneous coronary intervention. Adapted from: Nikolsky E, Mehran R, Dangas G, et al. Development and validation of a prognostic risk score for major bleeding in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention via the femoral approach. Eur Heart J 2007; 2008:1936.
