Validation of the Khorana Venous Thromboembolism Risk Score in Japanese Cancer Patients

Validation of the Khorana Venous Thromboembolism Risk Score in Japanese Cancer Patients

Background: Although the Khorana venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk score (KRS) is well recognized as a simple VTE risk assessment method in patients with cancer, whether it is suitable for Asian populations is unclear. Objectives: This study validated KRS for the prediction of VTE and investigated t...
