Key result
This paper presents a study protocol to establish and validate an early mortality risk scoring system for patients with acute type A aortic dissection undergoing surgery, with no results reported yet.
Why the study?
Stanford type A aortic dissection has high mortality and surgical controversies remain regarding timing, prognosis, and operative methods, warranting an early mortality risk scoring system.
Can an early mortality risk scoring system accurately predict operative risk in patients with acute type A aortic dissection undergoing surgical treatment?
Cohort (n=1,780)
No
Can an early mortality risk scoring system accurately predict operative risk in patients with acute type A aortic dissection undergoing surgical treatment?
This protocol describes the planned development and prospective validation of a risk scoring system to predict early mortality in patients undergoing surgery for acute type A aortic dissection.
Stanford type A aortic dissection is a kind of cardiovascular disease which seriously threatens human life and health. It has the characteristics of rapid onset, rapid progress and high mortality. Surgical treatment is a recognized treatment for type A aortic dissection. There are many disputed places in the actual clinical work about the timing, prognosis and methods of the operation. This study aims to establish an early mortality risk scoring system for acute Stanford A aortic dissection surgery patients. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: The structured data of patients with acute type A aortic dissection were collected. The primary outcome is death during hospitalization. Secondary outcomes will include re-operation and related complications. A risk scoring system of patients with acute type A aortic dissection undergoing surgical treatment will be established. Prospective data will be used to validate the risk stratification ability and accuracy of the model in operative risk prediction.
