The original and two new derivative versions of the COMPERA 2.0 risk assessment model: useful tools for guiding balloon pulmonary angioplasty.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The COMPERA 2.0 4-stratum (4-S) risk score has been demonstrated superior over the 3-stratum (3-S) one in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and medically managed patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). We aimed to determine the prognostic value of the original 4-S and 3-S COMPERA 2.0 risk score and two new derivative versions in CTEPH patients who underwent balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA).

Methods

We retrospectively enrolled 175 BPA-treated patients with CTEPH. We assessed the risk stratification before and after each BPA session of CTEPH patients by the original 4-S and 3-S COMPERA 2.0 risk score (by rounding decimal to the nearest integer) and two new proposed derivative versions: the modified version (by rounding dec
