The Ottawa Score Performs Poorly to Identify Cancer Patients at High Risk of Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism: Insights from the TROPIQUE Study and Updated Meta-Analysis [PDF]
The Ottawa score (OS) for predicting the risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in cancer patients with VTE may help to guide anticoagulant treatment decisions that will optimize benefit-risk ratios. However, data on its reliability are conflicting.

Prognosis in patients with cancer‐associated venous thromboembolism: Comparison of the RIETE‐VTE and modified Ottawa score [PDF]
The RIETE-VTE score was derived to risk-stratify patients with cancer-associated venous thromboembolism (CAT).To externally validate the RIETE-VTE score and to compare its prognostic performance with the modified Ottawa score.We studied 178 elderly patients with CAT in a prospective multicenter cohort and assessed 30-day all-cause mortality, 90-day ...

The Ottawa score for prediction of recurrent venous thromboembolism in cancer patients treated with tinzaparin: an individual patient data meta-analysis. [PDF]
Risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) recurrence remains high in patients with cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT), despite therapeutic anticoagulation. Identifying patients at risk of treatment failure is still a challenge.We aimed to assess the performance of the Ottawa score in predicting VTE recurrence in a large homogeneous population of patients ...

Abstract Background/Introduction Patients with cancer-associated venous thromboembolisms (VTEs) have a markedly higher risk of recurrence as well as bleeding, compared to those without, leading to difficulty in achieving a good risk-to-benefit balance with anticoagulation therapy. Thus, the assessment

ABCD2, ABCD2-I, and OTTAWA scores for stroke risk assessment: a direct retrospective comparison
AbstractTransient ischemic attack (TIA) is a neurologic emergency characterized by cerebral ischemia eliciting a temporary focal neurological deficit. Many clinical prediction scores have been proposed to assess the risk of stroke after TIA; however, studies on their clinical validity and comparisons among them are scarce.
