Shock Stages in Cardiac Surgical Patients: Implications for Post-Cardiotomy Shock and Mortality.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Risk prognostication is essential to identify patients at risk of higher mortality following cardiac surgery.

Objectives

The Society for Cardiac Angiography and Intervention (SCAI) shock construct was adapted to cardiac surgical patients to create the CS-SCAI staging and it was applied at various time points and correlated with survival.

Methods

Retrospective analysis of Society of Thoracic Surgeons adult cardiac surgery database from January 2015 to December 2019. The focus was 30-day survival and multivariate logistic analysis was used to examine factors. CS-SCAI E indicates extracorporeal life support or biventricular devices, CS-SCAI D patients receive vasoactive(s) and a single device whereas CS-SCAI C patients have either one device or a vasoactive bu
