LimitsWhen not to use: to deny indicated PE therapy. · Pitfall: using outpatient Cr cutoffs without unit conversion. · Complements HAS-BLED; populations differ.

Registry-derived weights.
When to use
When to use: acute PE/DVT on anticoagulation when counseling bleed risk or intensity.
How it works
Recent major bleed (2) + Cr >1.2 mg/dL (1.5) + anemia (1.5) + cancer (1) + overt PE (1) + age >75 (1).
Key points
- Registry-derived weights.
- Cutoffs <2 / 2–4 / >4.
- Next: PESI / sPESI / HAS-BLED.

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.
| Recent major bleeding (<15 days in derivation) | No (0) |
|---|---|
| Creatinine > 1.2 mg/dL (>106 µmol/L) | No (0) |
| Anemia (Hb <13 g/dL men / <12 women) | No (0) |
| Cancer | No (0) |
| Clinically overt pulmonary embolism | No (0) |
| Age > 75 y | No (0) |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Does RIETE Score (Bleed on PE/VTE Treatment) 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 RIETE Score (Bleed on PE/VTE Treatment) calculated in practice? Can you show a worked example?
- Inputs: Recent major bleeding (<15 days in derivation) No (0), Creatinine > 1.2 mg/dL (>106 µmol/L) No (0), Anemia (Hb <13 g/dL men / <12 women) No (0), Cancer No (0), Clinically overt pulmonary embolism No (0), Age > 75 y No (0) → Result: RIETE 0 pts(Band: Low major-bleed risk band (~0.1–0.3%), Cutoffs: <2 low · 2–4 intermediate · >4 high) Inputs: Recent major bleeding (<15 days in derivation) Yes (2), Creatinine > 1.2 mg/dL (>106 µmol/L) Yes (1.5), Anemia (Hb <13 g/dL men / <12 women) Yes (1.5), Cancer Yes (1), Clinically overt pulmonary embolism Yes (1), Age > 75 y Yes (1) → Result: RIETE 8 pts(Band: High band (~6–7% in derivation), Cutoffs: <2 low · 2–4 intermediate · >4 high)
