Interpretation of Results

The HEMORR₂HAGES Score is a clinical grading system used to predict the risk of bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation. It integrates bleeding risk factors from existing grading systems into a modified grading system.

The specific meanings of the abbreviations are as follows:

  • Hepatic or renal disease (H):
    Hepatic disease: cirrhosis, AST or APT elevated more than twice, or albumin < 3.6 g/dL
    Renal insufficiency: creatinine clearance < 30 ml/min
  • Etanol abuse (E)
  • Malignancy (M)
  • Older (O): Age ≥ 75 years
  • Reduced platelet count or function (R):
    Platelets < 75,000, regular use of antiplatelet drugs (e.g., daily aspirin) or NSAIDs; or cachexia
  • Re-Bleeding (R)
  • Hypertension (H): Uncontrolled hypertension
  • Anemia (A)
  • Genetic factors (G)
  • Excessive fall risk (E)
  • Stroke (S)
