Comparison of logistic EuroSCORE and EuroSCORE II in predicting operative mortality of 1125 total arterial operations [ADULT CARDIAC]
CONCLUSIONS
In 1125 consecutive TAG CABG patients, neither LES nor ESII performed well enough to be used as a consistent risk stratification tool; LES overestimated risk but was highly accurate for the highest of 10 risk groups and ESII consistently underestimated risk in all patients.
