Key result
E-CABG bleeding Grade ≥ I strongly predicts 30-day mortality after open peripheral arterial surgery.
Why the study?
Documentation of perioperative bleeding is crucial for monitoring efficacy, safety, and patient outcomes, but the E-CABG bleeding classification needed validation in open peripheral arterial surgery.
Does the E-CABG bleeding classification predict adverse short-term postoperative outcomes in adult patients undergoing elective open peripheral arterial surgery?
Cohort (n=778)
Yes
Does the E-CABG bleeding classification predict adverse short-term postoperative outcomes in adult patients undergoing elective open peripheral arterial surgery?
Effect estimate: AUC 0.81 (95% CI 0.63-0.96)
p-value: p=<0.001
The E-CABG bleeding classification effectively stratifies perioperative bleeding severity and predicts adverse short-term outcomes in patients undergoing open peripheral arterial surgery.

May support bleeding risk stratification after peripheral arterial surgery; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
Steunenberg et al. (2025) conducted a cohort in Open peripheral arterial surgery (OPAS) (n=778). E-CABG bleeding severity classification vs. No bleeding complication was evaluated on Incidence of complications categorized per E-CABG grade (AUC 0.81, 95% CI 0.63-0.96, p=<0.001). An E-CABG bleeding classification of Grade ≥ I strongly predicted 30-day mortality (AUC 0.81; 95% CI 0.63-0.96) and other adverse outcomes in patients undergoing open peripheral arterial surgery.
