Supports Caprini VTE risk stratification in otolaryngology; leaves open prospective validation before practice change.
The Caprini risk assessment model effectively risk-stratifies otolaryngology patients for 30-day VTE events and allows otolaryngologists to identify patient subgroups who have a higher risk of VTE in the absence of chemoprophylaxis.
