  • Current Status and Progress of Risk Models for Cardiac Valve Surgery

    Heart valve disease is one of the three most common cardiac diseases,and the patients undergoing valve surgery have been increasing every year. Due to the high mortality,increasing number of valve surgeries,and increasing economic burdens on public health, a lot of risk models for valve surgery have been developed by various countries based on their own clinical data all over the world,which aimed to regulate the preoperative risk assessment and decrease the perioperative mortality. Over the last 10 years, a number of excellent risk models for valve surgery have finally been developed including the Society of Thoracic Surgeons(STS), the Society of Thoracic Surgeons’ National Cardiac Database (STS NCD),New York Cardiac Surgery Reporting System(NYCSRS),the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation(EuroSCORE),the Northern New England Cardiovascular Disease Study Group(NNECDSG),the Veterans Affairs Continuous Improvement in Cardiac Surgery Study(VACICSP),Database of the Society of Cardiothoracic Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland(SCTS), and the North West Quality Improvement Programme in Cardiac Interventions(NWQIP). In this article, we reviewed these risk models which had been developed based on the multicenter database from 1999 to 2009, and summarized these risk models in terms of the year of publication, database, valve categories, and significant risk predictors. 
