Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Acute Stanford type A aortic dissection is one of the most severe cardiovascular diseases with high in-hospital mortality. OBJECTIVE: To establish predictors of in-hospital mortality in the treatment of patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection under conditions of artificial circulation and to determine their threshold values. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Study design: retrospective, cohort, single-center. Inclusion criteria: surgical intervention with cardiopulmonary bypass, confirmed diagnosis of acute Stanford type A aortic dissection, age > 18 years. The study included 51 patients: 42 men and 9 women aged from 35 to 77 years, median 59 years [47; 65]. All patients (n = 51) were treated in 2022 and were divided into 2 groups depending on the outcome: group 1 (n = 27) included those who died in the intensive care unit within 30 days, group 2 (n = 24) included survived and discharged patients. The endpoint of trial was 30-day in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: Postoperative Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score > 7, Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II score > 19, and Vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) > 10, cardiopulmonary bypass time > 177 minutes, and total hypothermic circulatory arrest time > 30 minutes were associated with an increased risk of 30-day in-hospital mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Statistically significant predictors of hospital mortality in the treatment of patients with acute Stanford type A aortic dissection under cardiopulmonary bypass are the SOFA index, the APACHE II index and the VIS index after the end of surgery, as well as the time of cardiopulmonary bypass and the time of total hypothermic circulatory arrest.
