What is VERITY?
A UK, multi-centre observational registry of clinical management practices & patient outcomes in the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE).
![Page 4: Evaluating the Performance of a Previously Reported Risk Score to Predict Venous Thromboembolism: A VERITY Registry Study Denise O'Shaughnessy, Peter Rose,](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2a5503460f94b1865f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What is VERITY?
• Launched December 2001 in 39 NHS centre
• Now has ~80 NHS centres in the UK
• Independent Steering Committee

Objective
To evaluate a simple score for estimating risk of VTE using a registry (VERITY) of patients presenting to hospital with suspected VTE.

Risk score for VTE
• The computer program alerted physicians to the increased risk for VTE and more than doubled the rate of prophylaxis (14.5% to 33.5%)
• Overall rate of VTE at 90 days was reduced by 41%

Risk score analysis using VERITY
• Retrospective analysis of risk score in VERITY population aiming to validate this as a decision aid to enable use of thromboprophylaxis.
• Risk score applied to complete population (VTE +ve and VTE –ve patients)
• Examine risk factor profiles in our patients and reveal existing levels of thromboprophylaxis.

Results – risk score & VTE
• An increasing risk score was associated with linear rise in confirmed VTE
• 51% of patients with a risk score ≥4 were diagnosed with VTE
– significantly higher than risk score <4 • 26% vs. 51%; p<0.01
• 71% of patients with a risk score >7 were diagnosed with VTE

Results – risk score & prophylaxis
• Significantly more medical patients with a risk score ≥4 received VTE prophylaxis– Medical patients – 22% (<4) vs. 33% (≥4), p=0.02
• Risk score did not seem to influence prophylaxis provision in surgical patients– Surgical patients – 34% (<4) vs. 32% (≥4)
![Page 28: Evaluating the Performance of a Previously Reported Risk Score to Predict Venous Thromboembolism: A VERITY Registry Study Denise O'Shaughnessy, Peter Rose,](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e2a5503460f94b1865f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Conclusion
• Confirmed utility of risk scoring system in defining those at risk for VTE in VERITY cohort.
• Cases of suspected VTE managed in community rather than hospitalised patient population.
• Retrospective analysis of risk factor profile and thromboprophylaxis behaviour.
• Further refinement of such scoring systems to increase the accuracy of VTE prediction might be valuable.
