A simplified scoring system for the prediction of pancreatoduodenectomy's complications: An observational study.

ABSTRACT: To assess the efficiency of several previous scoring systems in the prediction of postoperative complications of pancreatoduodenectomy (PCPD) and to explore a new simplified scoring system for PCPD prediction.All 183 consecutive patients scheduled for PD from 2010 to 2017 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were collected retrospectively. The area under the curve (AUC) for the prediction of PCPD was calculated for POSSUM, E-PASS, APACHE-II, and APACHE-III, which were used to test the efficiency of PCPD prediction. The independent risk factors included in the new scoring system were determined by univariate analysis and a logistic regression model. Next, the prediction efficiency was validated.The results of the univariate analysis showed that such variables as
