Clinical features and risk factors of postoperative in-hospital mortality following surgical repair of Stanford type A acute aortic dissection

摘要

To investigate the clinical features of patients with Stanford type A acute aortic dissection (AAD) and analyze the risk factors affecting postoperative in-hospital mortality rate. The demographic and clinical data were retrospectively collected and analyzed from 118 AAD patients admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Hangzhou Normal University from June 2016 to April 2019. All patients underwent surgical treatment and were grouped into death and survival groups. The risk factors affecting postoperative in-hospital death were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression analysis. The male to female ratio in the patients was 3.8:1 and the mean age was 50.11?±?9.91 years. The patient’s main comorbidities were hypertension (70.33%) and coronary heart disease (10.17%). The main symptoms included chest pain and back pain (72.89%). The highest incidence of complications was pericardial effusion (48.31%), followed by pleural effusion (22.88%). The mean systolic blood pressure, white blood cell count and D-dimer in the patients were over the ranges of normal people. The incidences of cardiac and renal insufficiency?were 18.64% and 16.95% respectively, and the postoperative in-hospital mortality rate was 12.71%. Univariable analysis showed that age, renal insufficiency, cardiac insufficiency, D-dimer level, cardiopulmonary bypass time, operation time, blood transfusion volume and postoperative hemostasis were significant factors leading to the death (P 65, renal insufficiency, cardiopulmonary bypass time?≥?250?min and postoperative hemostasis were independent risk factors for the death (P 65 years, renal insufficiency, cardiopulmonary bypass time?≥?250?min and postoperative hemostasis are significantly risk factors for postoperative mortality.
