Provincial carotid endarterectomy outcomes.
BACKGROUND Outcomes must be measured as a first step toward improving performance. We sought to measure the national and provincial outcomes from carotid endarterectomy (CE) and explain provincial differences. METHODS We analyzed a large Canada-wide administrative hospital discharge database of all patients, except those in Quebec, receiving CE in 1994-1997 and used logistic regression for ri...
متن کاملSex differences in carotid endarterectomy outcomes.
Endarterectomy Outcomes To the Editor: In a resent publication by Kapral and colleagues, it was concluded that the perioperative rates from carotid endarterectomy are similar in male and female patients.1 Respectively for male and female patients, the perioperative mortality rates were 1.8% and 1.2%, the nonfatal stroke rates were 4.2% and 5.0%, and combined death or stroke rates were 5.9% and ...
متن کاملAge and outcomes after carotid stenting and endarterectomy: the carotid revascularization endarterectomy versus stenting trial.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE High stroke event rates among carotid artery stenting (CAS)-treated patients in the Carotid Revascularization Endarterectomy Versus Stenting Trial (CREST) lead-in registry generated an a priori hypothesis that age may modify the relative efficacy of CAS versus carotid endarterectomy (CEA). In the primary CREST report, we previously noted significant effect modification by...
متن کاملSex differences in carotid endarterectomy outcomes: results from the Ontario Carotid Endarterectomy Registry.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The existing literature provides conflicting evidence on surgical risks of carotid endarterectomy in women compared with men. We used data from a large population-based carotid surgery registry to determine whether sex differences exist in the risk of perioperative complications from carotid endarterectomy. METHODS We analyzed data from the Ontario Carotid Endarterectom...
متن کاملRedo carotid endarterectomy versus primary carotid endarterectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Several authorities have recently advocated carotid stenting for recurrent carotid stenosis because of the perception that redo surgery has a higher complication rate than primary carotid endarterectomy (CEA). This study compares the early and late results of reoperations versus primary CEA. METHODS All reoperations for recurrent carotid stenosis performed during a rece...
