Background and Purpose—In previous studies, the Totaled Health Risks in Vascular Events (THRIVE) score has shown
  broad utility, allowing prediction of clinical outcome, death, and risk of hemorrhage after tissue-type plasminogen
  activator (tPA) treatment, irrespective of the type of acute stroke therapy applied to the patient.
Methods—We used data from the Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive to further validate the THRIVE score in a large
  cohort of patients receiving tPA or no acute treatment, to confirm the relationship between THRIVE and hemorrhage after
  tPA, and to compare the THRIVE score with several other available outcome prediction scores.
Results—The THRIVE score strongly predicts clinical outcome (odds ratio, 0.55 for good outcome [95% CI, 0.53–0.57];
