Perspective on a risk score for cardiac transplantation.
1 presents a sophisticated statistical analysis of multiple pretransplantation factors that influence postoperative survival in 711 regular and 111 alternate list cardiac recipients transplanted between 1999 and 2010. They found that increasing donor age is associated with increasing recipient mortality. They previously looked at isch-emic time 2 and found an age-related tolerance to ischemia w...
متن کاملSimple new risk score model for adult cardiac extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: simple cardiac ECMO score.
BACKGROUND Although the use of cardiac extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is increasing in adult patients, the field lacks understanding of associated risk factors. While standard intensive care unit risk scores such as SAPS II (simplified acute physiology score II), SOFA (sequential organ failure assessment), and APACHE II (acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II), or disease...
متن کاملPretransplant Risk Score for New-Onset Diabetes After Kidney Transplantation
OBJECTIVE New-onset diabetes after kidney transplantation (NODAT) has adverse clinical and economic implications. A risk score for NODAT could help identify research subjects for intervention studies. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study using pretransplant clinical and laboratory measurements to construct a risk score for NODAT. NODAT was define...
متن کاملRisk assessment for pregnancy with cardiac disease-a global perspective.
Cardiac disease is emerging as the most important indirect cause if maternal death globally.1 Cardiac conditions can be pre-existing (e.g. rheumatic or congenital heart disease) and unmasked by increased volume load in pregnancy, or can be caused by pregnancy [e.g. hypertensive disorders or peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM)].2,3 Physicians are therefore increasingly faced with providing adequate...
متن کاملEAARN score, a predictive score for mortality in patients receiving cardiac resynchronization therapy based on pre-implantation risk factors
AIMS The beneficial effects of CRT in patients with advanced heart failure, wide QRS, and low LVEF have been clearly established. Nevertheless, mortality remains high in some patients. The aims of our study were to identify the predictors of mortality in patients treated with CRT and to design a risk score for mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS A cohort of 608 consecutive patients treated with CR...
