EuroSCORE II with SYNTAX score to assess risks of coronary artery bypass grafting outcomes

Abstract

The combination of EuroSCORE II and SYNTAX score was useful in predicting early major complications after CABG. In the long term, EuroSCORE II continued to be associated with late mortality, but SYNTAX score did not.

Is SYNTAX Score Predictive of Atrial Fibrillation after On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery?

“…SYNTAX score predicts short- and long-term adverse events following revascularization 23). Although, SYNTAX score predicts early adverse events in patients undergoing off-pump CABG, there was no significant difference between a higher SYNTAX score and development of POAF 24). Our study design was conducted with on-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery patients due to a lower incidence of AF in patients undergoing off-pump surgery 25)…”

Validation of SYNTAX and clinical SYNTAX scores in predicting atrial fibrillation following on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting

“…Gecmen et al [34] also found that higher SYNTAX scores were related to more frequent PoAF in patients undergoing isolated on-pump CABG. Contrary to this finding, Fukui et al [35] found no significant difference between high and low SYNTAX score groups for the development of PoAF in patients undergoing off-pump CABG. In our study, CSS integrating the angiographic findings with clinical variables such as advanced age, left ventricular dysfunction and renal impairment, which were wellknown risk factors for the occurrence of PoAF after CABG, was superior to the SS in predicting PoAF.…”

Valoración del Euroscore y SAPS III como predictor de mortalidad hospitalaria en el postoperatorio de cirugía cardiaca

“…Por ejemplo, se ha valorado su aplicación en procedimientos de revascularización coronaria percutánea 292 , aunque los resultados son poco claros. Parece que al combinar el Euroscore con el modelo SYNTAX, modelo que sirve para estratificar el riesgo de los pacientes que van a ser sometidos a revascularización percutánea y que se basa en la anatomía de las coronarias, la predicción obtenida mejoraba con respecto a la predicción obtenida solo con el modelo SYNTAX 212,213,293 . También se ha intentado añadir al Euroscore características específicas de los pacientes coronarios, como lesión de TCI o lesión de tres vasos, obteniéndose buenos resultados 214 .…”
