🫀 EVendo Score (Esophageal Varices)
UseWhen to use: adults with cirrhosis needing first screening EGD risk stratification.
Strata≤3.90 may support deferred EGD with monitoring; >3.90 prioritize endoscopy.
LimitsWhen not to use: overt bleed or prior variceal hemorrhage. · Pitfall: BUN entered as urea mmol/L. · Compare with Baveno VI when LSM available.

Cutoff 3.90.
When to use
When to use: adults with cirrhosis needing first screening EGD risk stratification.
How it works
A=(8.5×INR)+(AST/35); B=(Plt/150)+(BUN/20)+(Hb/15); score=A/B (+1 if ascites).
Key points
- Cutoff 3.90.
- Six inputs.
- Next: EGD vs monitor.

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.
| INR | 1.3 |
|---|---|
| AST | 50 U/L |
| Platelets | 120 ×10³/µL |
| BUN | 18 mg/dL |
| Hemoglobin | 12 g/dL |
| Ascites | Absent (0) |

- A/B：4.99
- Cue：>3.90 — prioritize screening upper endoscopy for varices

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Does EVendo Score (Esophageal Varices) 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 EVendo Score (Esophageal Varices) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
- Inputs: INR 1.3, AST 50 U/L, Platelets 120 ×10³/µL, BUN 18 mg/dL, Hemoglobin 12 g/dL, Ascites Absent (0) → Result: EVendo 4.99（A/B: 4.99, Cue: >3.90 — prioritize screening upper endoscopy for varices） Inputs: INR 1.3, AST 50 U/L, Platelets 120 ×10³/µL, BUN 18 mg/dL, Hemoglobin 12 g/dL, Ascites Present (+1 after A/B) → Result: EVendo 5.99（A/B: 4.99, Cue: >3.90 — prioritize screening upper endoscopy for varices）
