ANZACS-QI Risk Scores

ANZACS-QI data was used to develop this calculator which is intended to assist clinicians and their patients in deciding on subsequent dual antiplatelet therapy duration.

The ANZACS-QI calculator is designed to be used on the day of hospital discharge to estimate the risk of ischaemic and major bleeding occurring between 28 days and one year post-discharge for those who are event free by 28 days.
