Wells score Calculator
This handy calculator computes the pre-test probability of pulmonary embolism using Wells criteria. Check all boxes that apply to your patient:
Interpretation Shown below is the pretest probability of PE according to Wells criteria.[1][2][3]
- Score >6.0: High probability (Rate of PE: ~66.7%)
- Score 2.0 to 6.0: Moderate probability (Rate of PE: ~20.5%)
- Score <2.0: Low probability (Rate of PE: ~3.6%)
