Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI)
PESI is intended for risk stratification (assessing 30-day mortality) in patients diagnosed with PE to determine the severity of their condition.
Clinical parameters
Clinical context
Patients are stratified into five risk classes based on their total score: • Very Low Risk (≤ 65 points) • Low Risk (66-85 points) • Intermediate Risk (86-105 points) • High Risk (106-125 points) • Very High Risk (> 125 points).
