Description
Summary:Highlights•Two classifications to assess major bleeding severity have been used in clinical trials. •Data on their interrater agreement and validity are lacking. •In this post-hoc analysis, the interrater agreement of the major bleeding severity scales was moderate to substantial. •Data incompleteness and subjective terminology may have led to discordant results. •Future studies should aim to improve methods to assess major bleeding severity.
