The ACEF II score has value in predicting in-hospital death and AKI-D in Chinese patients undergoing cardiac surgery. It performs similarly to the ACEF score in predicting in-hospital death in elective surgery, but has better predictive ability in non-elective surgery.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of the ACEF II score in predicting postoperative hospital death and acute kidney injury requiring dialysis (AKI-D) in Chinese patients. MethodsThis retrospective study included adult patients who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass open heart surgery between January 2010 and December 2015 at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital. ACEF II was evaluated to predict in-hospital death and AKI-D using the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test for calibration and area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for discrimination in non-elective and elective cardiac surgery. ResultsA total of 9748 patients were included. Among them, 1080 underwent non-elective surgery, and 8615 underwent elective surgery. Mortality was 1.8% (177/9748). In elective surgery, the area under the ROC (AUC) of the ACEF II score was 0.704 (95% CI: 0.648-0.759), similar to the ACEF score of 0.709 (95% CI: 0.654-0.763). In non-elective surgery, the AUC of the ACEF II score was 0.725 (95% CI: 0.663-0.787), higher than the ACEF score (AUC = 0.625, 95% CI: 0.553-0.697). The incidence of AKI-D was 3.5% (345/9748). The AUC of the ACEF II score was 0.718 (95% CI: 0.687-0.749), higher than the ACEF score (AUC = 0.626, 95% CI: 0.594-0.658). ConclusionACEF and ACEF II have poor discrimination ability in predicting AKI-D in non-elective surgery. The ACEF II and ACEF scores have the same ability to predict in-hospital death in elective cardiac surgery, and the ACEF II score is better in non-elective surgery. The ACEF II score can be used to assess the risk of AKI-D in elective surgery in Chinese adults.
