Methodology · worked example, guidelines & full notes
DOAC-specific weights.
When to use
When to use: adults with AF on (or starting) a DOAC when counseling bleed risk.
How it works
Age + kidney + underweight + stroke + DM + HTN + antiplatelet + NSAID + bleed(+3) + liver(+2).
Key points
- DOAC-specific weights.
- Five bands.
- Next: mitigate modifiable risks.

Worked calculation
The values below come from this tool's own example placeholders and are computed server-side with the formula shown on this page, so the arithmetic can be checked quickly. It demonstrates how to substitute values only — it is not clinical advice and not a real case.

| Diabetes | No (0) |
| Hypertension | No (0) |
| Antiplatelet use | Aspirin (+2) |
| NSAID use | No (0) |
| Bleeding history | No (0) |
| Liver disease | No (0) |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Does DOAC Score (AF Bleeding on DOAC) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
- Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
- How is DOAC Score (AF Bleeding on DOAC) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
- Inputs: Age band 70–74 (+3), CrCl / eGFR (mL/min) 30–59 (+1), Underweight (BMI <18.5) No (0), Prior stroke / TIA / embolism No (0), Diabetes No (0), Hypertension No (0), Antiplatelet use Aspirin (+2), NSAID use No (0)… → Result: DOAC Score 6 pts（Risk band: Moderate (6–7)） Inputs: Age band <65 (0), CrCl / eGFR (mL/min) ≥60 (0), Underweight (BMI <18.5) No (0), Prior stroke / TIA / embolism No (0), Diabetes No (0), Hypertension No (0), Antiplatelet use None (0), NSAID use No (0)… → Result: DOAC Score 0 pts（Risk band: Very low (0–3)）
