Abstract

Exploratory Analysis of Preoperative and Postoperative Risk Stratification Tools to Identify Acute Kidney and Myocardial Injury in Patients Undergoing Surgery for Chronic Subdural Haematoma.

Highlights

  • Exploratory analysis of pre and postoperative risk stratification tools to identify acute kidney and myocardial injury in patients undergoing surgery for chronic subdural haematoma

  • The views expressed are those of the author(s) and not necessarily those of the NHS, National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) or the Department of Health and Social Care

  • As a further analysis within this cohort of operated chronic subdural haematomas (cSDH), we explore the potential of using retrospective electronic health record (EHR) data to generate prognostic statistical models for the identification of two end-organ complications (myocardial injury –troponin above the upper limit of normal and acute kidney injury (AKI) –a rise in serum creatinine of

Summary

Introduction

Exploratory analysis of pre and postoperative risk stratification tools to identify acute kidney and myocardial injury in patients undergoing surgery for chronic subdural haematoma. Patients with chronic subdural haematomas (cSDH) are often elderly with significant comorbidity[2]. As part of a multidisciplinary improvement initiative (the ‘Improving Care in Elderly Neurosurgery Initiative’ (ICENI)4) (Project ID:PRN7705) we demonstrated a significant association between postoperative complications and length of stay[2].
