OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare effectiveness of the 1999 logistic
EuroSCORE (LES) and of the 2012 EuroSCORE II (ESII) in a real-world patient population of …

Background To determine the discriminative accuracy and calibration of EuroSCORE II in
relation to age, sex, and surgical risk in a large nationwide coronary artery bypass grafting …

OBJECTIVES Prognostic models are widely used across medicine and within cardiothoracic
surgery, where predictive tools such as EuroSCORE are commonplace. Such models are a …

Prediction models combine values of multiple predictors to estimate an individual's risk of
having a certain outcome or disease (diagnostic models) or developing a future outcome …

Methods: After obtaining ethics committee clearance, data on EuroSCORE II variables were
collected for all patients> 18 years undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft …

Background The European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) II
has been recently introduced as an update to the previous versions. We sought to evaluate …

Surgical risk models estimate operative outcomes while controlling for heterogeneity in'case
mix'within and between institutions. In cardiac surgery, risk models are used for patient …

ABSTRACT Background In 2011, the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk
(EuroSCORE) II was created as an improvement of the additive/logistic EuroSCORE for the …

Objective To compare and validate the original EuroSCORE risk stratification models with
the renewed EuroSCORE II model in a contemporary cardiac surgical practice. Design A …

Background Quality improvement initiatives in cardiac surgery largely rely on risk prediction
models. Most often, these models include isolated populations and describe isolated end …
