Vienna Prediction Model - Recalibrated

for patients with a first unprovoked venous thromboembolism

Patients with an unprovoked deep vein thrombosis of the leg and/or pulmonary embolism have a high recurrence risk and international expert panels suggest extended-phase oral anticoagulation. Many patients will never experience recurrence but are exposed to a bleeding risk and other burdens of long-term anticoagulation.

The Vienna Prediction Model (VPM) can be used for individual patients with a first unprovoked deep venous thrombosis of the leg or pulmonary embolism who completed the initial anticoagulant treatment of 3-6 months. The VPM identifies patients with a lower risk of recurrence in whom discontinuation of anticoagulation may be considered. The model stratifies these patients further into different low-risk subcategories, which allows a personalized risk assessment. This approach facilitates informed decision-making on the duration of secondary thromboprophylaxis considering a patient's preference especially when the balance between risks and benefits is uncertain.

The Vienna Prediction Model (VPM) has been published in the European Heart Journal [Kyrle et al. Eur Heart J. 2024;45:45-53] and is accessible via a web-link embedded in the publication. This application is intended to facilitate the use of the VPM for healthcare professionals only.
