Utility of GERAADA Score for Predicting Long-term Survival Following Surgical Repair of Aortic Dissection.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

We aimed to assess the long-term survival following surgical repair because of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) and the correlation with the preoperative GERAADA (German Registry for Acute Type A Aortic Dissection)-score value.

Methods

We enrolled patients who underwent emergent aortic surgery because of ATAAD from 2010 to 2022 from 9 hospitals. Follow-up information was obtained by matching the clinical patient data with a national administrative database. Discrimination and calibration of GERAADA were tested at 1, 2, 5, and 10 years. The relationship between long-term outcome and score was also tested through time-to-event methods.

Results

A total of 1110 patients were analysed: Median age was 67 years [IQR 57-75], and 30.8% of subjects were female.
