Assessment of the 90-day Mortality Risk Score After VATS Lobectomy

March 17, 2021 updated by: Maria Cattoni, Università degli Studi dell'Insubria

Assessment of the 90-day Mortality Risk Score After Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Lobectomy in the Italian VATS Group Cohort

A five classes (A-E) aggregate risk score predicting 90-day mortality after video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer, including as independent factors male sex (3 points), carbon monoxide lung diffusion capacity <60% (1 point) and operative time >150 minutes (1 point), has been recently published. This study aims to assess the effectiveness and reliability of this risk model in a large, independent cohort of patients, in order to confirm its generalizability.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

From the Italian VATS Group Database, we selected patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer. We calculated the aggregate risk score and the corresponding class of 90-day mortality risk for each patient. The correlation between risk classes and mortality rates was tested by Spearman's rho-test. Model calibration was evaluated by Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test.
