“…Olmos et al 1 published a new score (Risk-E score), developed to predict the risk of postoperative mortality in patients with active infective endocarditis (IE). Risk-E is the first IE score that incorporates thrombocytopenia and septic shock as independent preoperative factors of mortality.…”

“…7 Embora haja escores de risco disponíveis para uso na prática clínica diária, ainda há muita incerteza sobre qual deles escolher. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o EuroSCORE logístico, 8 o EuroSCORE II 9 e escores específicos para a EI, STS-IE, 2 PALSUSE, 10 AEPEI, 11 EndoSCORE 7 e RISK-E, 12 como preditores de mortalidade hospitalar em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia cardíaca em razão de EI ativa, em um hospital universitário terciário da região sul do Brasil.…”

“…3% dos casos nesta coorte, diferentemente das coortes de validação dos escores específicos para EI, nas quais a taxa de detecção foi de 81,0-86,6% [10][11][12]. De modo semelhante, o Staphylococcus aureus, que causa uma infecção agressiva e, 4% dos casos, ao passo que, nas coortes de validação, esse percentual variou de 17,5 a 19,9% 11,12. Esses dois fatores provavelmente explicam, ao menos em parte, a baixa precisão dos escores específicos para EI na nossa coorte.…”

“…Carmen Olmos et al 6 aimed to develop a simple bedside prediction score, the RISK-E score, to assist clinicians and the endocarditis team in the difficult decision-making process for cardiac surgery during the acute phase of IE. The RISK-E score, simple and readily available, may be a valuable tool for decision-making, in line with scores that are currently advocated for the risk assessment in surgery for other cardiac diseases, to assist the selection of investigations for the diagnosis of suspected pulmonary embolism, or the prescription of anticoagulant for atrial arrhythmias.…”
