Abstract
More than three years ago, the Spanish Society of Cardiovascular and Endovascular Surgery started the Spanish Registry of Cardiac Surgery (RECC) in order to offer all cardiac surgery services nationwide a patient-level registry. The objective of this study is to offer a global vision of the data entered into the RECC in the period between february 8, 2021 and february 8, 2024 of the participating centers that have contributed data from at least 40 interventions. The information has been analyzed anonymously at the patient, hospital and province level. To estimate risk-adjusted mortality, the EuroSCORE II preoperative risk estimation scale was used. A total of 10,852 interventions have been included in the RECC, of which 9,236 were major cardiac surgeries. 53.4% (n=4,935) of major procedures were valve surgeries, 25.2% (n=2,324) myocardial revascularization surgeries and 15.0% (n=1,387) aorta procedures. The mean EuroSCORE II of major cardiac surgeries was 5.5% (SD 8.6), the overall mortality was 5.1% and the RAMR of major procedures was 0.92. In 2023, the mean EuroSCORE II was 5.4%, the observed mortality was 6.4% and the RAMR was 1.18. In 2023, the EuroSCORE II underestimated low-risk patients.
