CHA2DS2-VASc

Annual stroke-risk stratification in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.

Result

0

Anticoagulation is generally recommended at 2 or more (men) / 3 or more (women); at 1 (men) / 2 (women) it is considered.

Interpretation
Higher scores mean higher annual stroke risk; guidelines anchor anticoagulation thresholds to it.
Limitations
Applies to nonvalvular AF; bleeding risk is a separate assessment, and the score does not capture every risk modifier.
