Sepsis and septic shock are among mortality causes following major surgeries. The Charlson co-morbidity index consists of 19 weighted categories related to chronic health which measures the burden of co-morbidity. The goal of this study was to determine the incidence of postoperative sepsis in patients underwent gynecological and gastrointestinal cancer surgeries and predictive role of Charlson...
BACKGROUND Comorbidities may affect survival and choice of treatment among cancer patients. In fact, comorbidities have been identified as significant determinants of response to therapy in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, and lung cancer. The Charlson comorbidity index and adult comorbidity evaluation-27 are lists of comorbidities with a weight a...
BACKGROUND The Charlson comorbidity index is widely used in ICD-9 administrative data, however, there is no translation for Read/OXMIS coded data despite increasing use of the General Practice Research Database (GPRD). Our main objective was to translate the Charlson index for use with Read/OXMIS coded data such as the GPRD and test its association with mortality. We also aimed to provide a ver...
Cancer survival correlates not only with the features of primary malignancy but also with the degree of underlying comorbidities. Of the multiple methods used for evaluating the impact of comorbidities on survival, the Charlson and Elixhauser methods are most common. This study compared these 2 comorbidity measures for predicting survival in oral cancer patients. Using the Taiwan National Healt...
TRANSTHORACIC VERSUS TRANSHIATAL ESOPHAGECTOMY: COMPARATIVE STUDY REGARDING SURGICAL APPROACH IN ESOPHAGEAL CANCER (Abstract): BACKGROUND: Surgical resection can offer the best curative treatment for oesophageal cancer but is associated with high postoperative morbidity rates. Most common surgical approaches are transthoracic (TT) and transhiatal (TH) techniques. Transhiatal approach has the ad...
BACKGROUND Comparing outcomes between hospitals requires consideration of patient factors that could account for any observed differences. Adjusting for comorbid conditions is common when studying outcomes following cancer surgery, and a commonly used measure is the Charlson comorbidity index. Other measures of patient health include the ECOG performance status and the ASA physical status score...
Methods Prospective, descriptive study in a multi-disciplinary ICU, university referral hospital from June 2013 to May 2014. Demographic data, severity of illness based on sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), degree of independence (Barthel index) and comorbidities (Charlson Index) were documented. Age was categorized into subgroups, assigning a score of 1-6 upstream ( < 40; 40-60; 61-70...
To investigate the recently described Lee mortality index as predictor of mortality after radical cystectomy. A total of 735 patients who underwent radical cystectomy for bladder cancer between 1993 and 2010 were studied. Median patient age was 67 years and the median follow-up was 7.8 years (censored patients). The Lee mortality index was assigned based on data derived from patient history, pr...
Subjective health is likely to confound the association between will-to-live and survival SIR—We enjoyed reading the inspiring study on will-to-live and survival in older home-dwelling people [1]. The association between will-to-live and survival in these patients looks striking. However, and although the association remained statistically significant after multivariate adjustments , will-to-li...
