Background: According to published guidelines, gynecologic surgical patients should be stratified into different risk level groups to receive prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism (VTE), but the applicability of available risk assessment models (RAMs) in common gynecologic surgical patients remained to be confirmed. We aimed to validate the use of the Caprini RAM and gynecologic Caprini (G-Caprini) RAM for assessing postoperative VTE risk in gynecologic surgical patients. Methods: The database of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) was used to select patients who underwent gynecologic surgeries for benignant and malignant diseases in five institutions in China between 2011 and 2018. The Caprini RAM version recommended by the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) was adopted. Participants were divided into four risk levels based on the Caprini and G-Caprini scores. For each risk level group, the incidence of VTE was calculated. The correlation between VET incidence and risk levels was assessed by Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (RS) value. Results: As a result, 800 patients in the data base were analyzed with an overall VTE incidence of 5.8%. Caprini RAM showed that the percentage of patients at very low risk, low risk, moderate risk, and high risk were 0%, 4.3%, 44.4%, and 51.4%, respectively, and the VTE incidence was 2.9%, 2.3%, and 9.0%, respectively. RS value between the risk stratification and VTE incidence was 0.500 (P=0.667). G-Caprini RAM showed that the percentage of patients at very low risk, low risk, moderate risk, and high risk were 7.8%, 28.0%, 32.0%, and 32.3%, respectively, and the VTE incidence was 0.0%, 2.9%, 2.3%, and 9.0%, respectively. RS value between the risk stratification and VTE incidence was 1.000 (P<0.01). Conclusions: The G-Caprini RAM was as suitable as the Caprini RAM for VTE risk assessment in gynecologic surgical patients. The gynecologic model has the advantages of ease of use and more accurate identification of low-risk groups.
