Abstract
Background: Risk stratification tools like EuroSCORE II are critical for preoperative assessment in cardiac surgery, but their applicability in Indian patients undergoing valvular heart surgery remains unclear.
Objective: To analyze the relationship between EuroSCORE II risk categories and actual observed versus predicted mortality outcomes in Indian patients undergoing valvular heart surgery.
Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted on 56 patients undergoing elective or urgent valvular heart surgery at Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Srinagar, India. Patients were categorized into four EuroSCORE II risk groups. Observed mortality was compared with predicted mortality in each group.
Results: Mortality was underestimated by EuroSCORE II in moderate and high-risk categories. Predicted vs. observed mortality: Very Low (0.68% vs. 0%), Low (1.61% vs. 5.6%), Moderate (4.55% vs. 8.3%), High (8.96% vs. 23.1%).
Conclusion: EuroSCORE II underestimates mortality risk in Indian patients. Regional recalibration or a new predictive model is needed.
