Is the Parsonnet's score a good predictive score of mortality in adult cardiac surgery: assessment by a French multicentre study.

1997

Objecti6e: Parsonnet proposed a preoperative score (‘‘initial Parsonnet’s score’’, which predicts the hospital mortality of adult cardiac surgery. This score was then modified by including several risk factors used in the ‘SUMMIT’ system (‘‘modified Parsonnet’s score’’, 44 variables). We wanted to assess the predictive value of these two scores in a French surgical population. Methods: From December 1992 to April 1993, in France, we organised a prospective multicentre study on adult cardiac surgery mortality and morbidity. Data on 6649 patients were included. We analysed statistically the predictive value of each risk factor and of the two scores on mortality and morbidity at one month. Res…

Endovascular treatment as first choice in chronic intestinal ischemia.

2002

The purpose of this study was to define the place of endovascular treatment in chronic intestinal ischemia (CII). We report here a series of 19 consecutive patients treated with percutaneous angioplasty of the intestinal arteries. We excluded patients with acute ischemia, from the study. From January 1, 1989 to December 31, 2001, 19 patients with symptomatic CII were treated by endovascular techniques. This study group included 11 men and 8 women with a mean age of 59 years (range 30 to 90 years). The clinical presentation included postprandial pain in 16 patients, weight loss in 14 patients, with a mean weight loss of 7.4 kg (range 0 to 30 kg); and gastroparesis in 2 patients. Stenoses wer…
