The Impact of EuroSCORE II Risk Factors on Prediction of Long-Term Mortality

Abstract: The EuroSCORE II cannot be considered a direct estimator of long-term risk of death, as its performance fades for mortality at follow-up longer than 30 days. Nonetheless, it is nonlinearly associated with long-term mortality, and most of its variables are risk factors for long-term mortality. Hence, they can be used in a different algorithm to stratify the risk of long-term mortality after surgery.

“…Barili et al reported that mortality incidence was significantly higher in women which were 17.3% compared to 9.8% in men, with a p <0.008. Based on standard deviation, both deceased and living patients had a fairly wide sample variation based on standard deviation, therefore, EuroSCORE II is not always appropriate in assessing mortality risk (14). Table 2 shows that the mean EuroSCORE II for deceased patients was 22.36% with a standard deviation of ± 26.97% while living patients were 6.78% with a standard deviation of ± 6.4%.…”

“…An important finding in our study is the lack of predictive power of the currently used EuroSCORE II risk model with respect to physical recovery. Specifically designed and calibrated for the prediction of short-term mortality, the predictive power of the EuroSCORE II risk model is known to diminish with respect to 1 and 5 year mortality [ 12 , 13 ]. Notwithstanding the fact that other risk models claim better performance for long-term mortality, the relationship between such risk scores and HRQoL-related endpoints remains largely unexplored [ 14 , 15 ].…”

“…The identification of new risk factors for peri- and post-operative mortality is a core issue for guaranteeing high-quality results in risk-scoring systems. Several studies have reported a progressive worsening of the ESII model performances when applied to follow-up longer than 30 days [24]. In particular for isolated CABG surgeries, a poor calibration of ESII, in both the highest and lowest risk-patient groups, was reported [25].…”
