Geneva Score Calculator

  • The Geneva score has been revised and simplified from its original version, but it has been shown to have the same diagnostic utility as the original score.[3]

Calculation of the Original Geneva Score for PE

This handy calculator computes the pre-test probability of pulmonary embolism using original Geneva criteria.

Check all boxes that apply to your patient:

Original Geneva Score
Variable Score
History of prior DVT or PE 2
Recent surgery within 4 weeks 3
Heart rate >100 beats per minute 1
Age 60-79 years 1
≥80 years 2
PaCO2 <35 mmHg (<4.8 kPa) 2
35-39 mmHg (4.8-5.19 kPa) 1
PaO2 <49 mmHg (<6.5 kPa) 4
49-59 mmHg (6.5-7.99 kPa) 3
60-71 mmHg (8-9.49 kPa) 2
72-82 mmHg (9.5-10.99 kPa) 1
Chest X-ray Findings Band atelectasis 1
Elevation of hemidiaphragm 1

Interpretation of the Original Geneva Score for PE

Shown below is the interpretation of the Geneva score:[1]

  • Score ≤ 4 points: Low probability of PE (~10%)
  • Score 5 to 8 points: Moderate probability of PE (~38%)
  • Score ≥ 9 points: High probability of PE (~81%)
