Objective[edit | edit source]

The Revised Geneva Score is a Clinical Prediction Rule for pulmonary embolism (PE). Its objective is to determine patients who are low-risk to rule out pulmonary embolism with a d-dimer serum test and for intermediate and high-risk patients to undergo additional imaging studies such as CT angiography and ultrasound.

Intended Population[edit | edit source]

It is used for individuals at risk for pulmonary embolism.
