ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying two scoring systems, EUROSCORE-II and POSPOM, to see how well they can predict the risk of death and complications after cardiac surgery. Cardiac surgery can be complex, especially for patients who may already have other health issues, so understanding a patient's condition before surgery is very important. The research is being conducted at Istanbul University-Cerrahpasa, Institute of Cardiology, and will involve patients who are 18 years or older and are undergoing specific types of heart surgeries, like coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or valve surgery.

If you or a family member are considering participating, you should know that the study is currently recruiting participants. Those involved will be monitored for any complications that might arise after surgery, such as bleeding, infections, or other serious issues. This trial aims to provide valuable information on how well these scoring systems work in predicting outcomes, which can help improve care for future cardiac surgery patients.
