Comparison of brain natriuretic peptide plasma levels versus logistic EuroSCORE in predicting in-hospital and late postoperative mortality in patients undergoing …

The accuracy of the logistic EuroSCORE (logES), a widely used risk prediction algorithm for
cardiac surgery including aortic valve surgery, usually overestimates observed perioperative
mortality. Elevated brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in symptomatic patients with aortic
stenosis (AS) is associated with a poor short-term outcome after aortic valve replacement.
We aimed to compare BNP with the logES for predicting short-and long-term outcome in
symptomatic patients with severe AS undergoing aortic valve replacement. We prospectively …
