Preoperative and ICU Scoring Models for Predicting the In-Hospital Mortality of Patients With Ruptured Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.
This study's objective was to compare several preoperative and intensive care unit (ICU) prognostic scoring systems for predicting the in-hospital mortality of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (RAAAs). ⋯ Preoperative and ICU scores can predict the mortality of patients presenting with RAAA. In addition, the discriminatory ability of preoperative scores between survivors and nonsurvivors was larger than that for ICU scores.
