Key result
In patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery, 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were 3% and 5.5%, respectively, with higher mortality significantly associated with older age and ASA scores.
Why the study?
Patients undergoing emergency surgery face higher mortality and complication risks than elective cases, requiring rapid perioperative risk assessment, especially in those with high comorbidity.
What factors affect 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery?
Population
1065 patients aged 18 years and older undergoing emergency abdominal surgery
Design
Retrospective cross-sectional study
Follow-up
1 year

What factors affect 30-day and 1-year mortality in patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery?
Emergency abdominal surgery carries a 30-day mortality of 3% and 1-year mortality of 5.5%, with significantly higher risks associated with advanced age (>70 years), higher ASA scores, and perioperative complications.
Necmiye Ay (2023) conducted a cross-sectional in Emergency abdominal surgery (n=1,065). Emergency abdominal surgery was evaluated on Mortality rates in the first 30 days and 1 year. In patients undergoing emergency abdominal surgery, 30-day and 1-year mortality rates were 3% and 5.5%, respectively, with higher mortality significantly associated with older age and ASA scores.
