Association Between Post-operative Anemia and Mortality After Valvular Heart Surgery

October 16, 2024 updated by: Yonsei University

Association Between Remote Post-operative Anemia and Mortality in Patients Undergoing Valvular Heart Surgery

The investigators aimed to evaluate whether postoperative anemia can predict 1-year mortality after valvular heart surgery independent of preoperative anemia. Patients who underwent valvular heart surgery were divided into four groups according to whether or not they had preoperative and postoperative anemia. Postoperative one-year mortality, as well as overall mortality and a composite of death and heart failure requiring hospitalization, was investigated according to the groups, adjusted by confounders.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
postoperative 1-year mortality
Time Frame: One year after valvular heart surgery
The investigators assessed all-cause mortality during one year after valvular heart surgery and evaluated its association with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.
One year after valvular heart surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
overall mortality
Time Frame: postopeartive one-year
The investigators assessed overall mortality during the follow-up period and a composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization during the postoperative one-year and evaluated their associations with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.
postopeartive one-year
composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization
Time Frame: postopeartive one-year
The investigators assessed overall mortality during the follow-up period and a composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization during the postoperative one-year and evaluated their associations with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.
