To directly compare the Villalta scale and the Venous Clinical Severity Score (VCSS) and determine which of the two measures is better at capturing clinically important post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and PTS severity, as measured against patient-reported quality of life (QoL) scores. We performed a secondary analysis of the Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (ATTRACT) trial study population. We calculated the correlations of the Villalta scores and VCSS scores with QoL scores (Short-Form Health Survey-36 physical component score/mental component score [SF-36 PCS/MCS]; Venous Insufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study-QoL/Symptom questionnaire (VEINES-QoL/Sym) at each study visit (6-month, 12-month, 18-month and 24-month follow-up). The correlation of the random intercept (mean scores) and random slope (rate of change of the scores) between the Villalta, VCSS and VEINES-QoL/Sym scores was assessed using a multivariate longitudinal model. The median correlation between Villalta scores and VCSS score was 0.72. The median of the correlations between Villalta scores and VEINES-QoL and VEINES-Sym scores at all follow-up visits were −0.68 and −0.71, respectively. Between Villalta scores and SF-36 PCS and SF-36 MCS scores, the median of the correlations were −0.51 and −0.31, respectively. For VCSS, the median of the correlations with VEINES-QoL and VEINES-Sym scores at all follow-up visits were −0.39 and −0.41, respectively. Between VCSS and SF-36 PCS and SF-36 MCS scores, the median of the correlations were −0.32 and −0.13, respectively. Correlations between random effects in multivariate longitudinal models had a similar pattern. The impact of covariate adjustment by age, sex and body mass index was minor. Villalta scores and VCSS scores are strongly correlated. The Villalta scale has a substantially higher correlation with venous disease specific and general QoL than the VCSS. Our findings suggest that when a single scale is used to assess clinically-meaningful PTS, the Villalta scale will better capture the impact of PTS on patient reported QoL. A secondary analysis of the Acute Venous Thrombosis: Thrombus Removal with Adjunctive Catheter-Directed Thrombolysis (multicenter randomized controlled) trial demonstrated a stronger correlation between the Villalta Scale and quality of life measures compared to the Venous Clinical Severity Score.
