The YEARS Algorithm for PE helps rule out pulmonary embolism (not externally validated).

Sep 28, 2017 · The YEARS study aims to present a simplified algorithm for evaluation with a two-tiered D-dimer threshold to reduce the numbers of CTPA in all age groups

Mar 20, 2019 · In a prospective study involving pregnant women with suspected pulmonary embolism, we assessed three criteria from the YEARS algorithm (clinical signs of deep-vein thrombosis, …

The current evidence suggests the YEARS algorithm is effective at excluding a diagnosis of PE with a low miss rate and has the potential to significantly decrease the use of CT when PE is being …

The YEARS algorithm emerged as a refined clinical decision tool designed to optimize the diagnostic pathway for suspected PE by combining clinical assessment with D-dimer testing in a more efficient …

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the YEARS algorithm in excluding pulmonary embolism, as well as to compare the utilisation of advanced …

The YEARS algorithm was designed to simplify the diagnostic workup of suspected pulmonary embolism.

May 12, 2022 · The pregnancy-adapted YEARS algorithm can be pictured in Figure 1. This algorithm allows more pregnant individuals to avoid imaging compared to the algorithm using the RGS, likely …

- YEARS criteria (clinical signs of DVT, hemoptysis, PE is most likely diagnosis) - Fixed D-dimer cutoff of < 500 ng/mL and other clinical decision tools (Wells’ criteria) - Safely exclude PE without the need for …
