Vasoactive Inotropic Score (VIS) as Biomarker of Short-Term Outcomes in Adolescents after Cardiothoracic Surgery

Abstract: Our aim was to evaluate the Vasoactive Inotropic Score (VIS) as a prognostic marker in adolescents following surgery for congenital heart disease. This single-center retrospective chart review included patients 10-18 years of age, who underwent cardiac surgery from 2009 to 2014. Hourly VIS was calculated for the initial 48 postoperative hours using standard formulae and incorporating doses of six pressors. The composite adverse outcome was defined as any one of death, resuscitation or mechanical support, arrhy… Show more

“…According to cutoff> 4.75, the area under the ROC for the max VIS was 0.76, while the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 67%, 74%, 36% and 91%, respectively. It has been proposed that this simple score can be used as a prognostic indicator (18). In our previous study in which the relationship between VIS score and mortality in patients with severe head trauma followed in adult intensive care unit was 72.7%, 74.1%, 68.1% and 78.2% for the cutoff value of mean VIS ≥7.5, respectively (19).…”

“…The median ages of the patients were 68 (54.2-79) years, and 239 (61%) were male. Median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) values were 24.5 (18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27) and 11 (9)(10)(11)(12), respectively. While the duration of ICU stay was 10(4-22) days, the rates of patients with invasive mechanical ventilation, blood and blood products transfusion and acute kidney injury were 96.9% (380 patients), 58.9% (231 patients) and 26.3% (103 patients), respectively.…”

“…Therefore, the patients in the study were high-risk. VIS score was initially used in newborns and infants after cardiac surgery but in recent years has gradually been used in adults and adolescents (25) during the perioperative period of cardiac surgery to evaluate degree of critical illness. Relative to the complexity of APACHE II, the calculation method of VIS score is simpler and quicker (26).…”
