Methodology · worked example, guidelines & full notes
Coefficients are proprietary published values, so this page lists the variables and links to the official calculator instead of outputting an invented percentage. (original synthesis · not guideline verbatim)
When to use
Use for preoperative risk communication and decision-making in cardiac surgery, integrated with the heart team's judgment. Group the inputs as patient-related, cardiac-related, and operation-related factors.
How it works
Logistic regression of ~18 variables → predicted in-hospital mortality (%). Patient factors (age, renal function, lung disease, prior surgery, etc.), cardiac factors (NYHA, CCS, LV function, recent MI, pulmonary hypertension), and operation factors (urgency, complexity, thoracic aorta).
Key points
- Coefficients are proprietary published values, so this page lists the variables and links to the official calculator instead of outputting an invented percentage. (original synthesis · not guideline verbatim)
- LV function is banded as good ≥51%, moderate 31–50%, poor 21–30%, very poor ≤20%.
- Surgical urgency (elective/urgent/emergency/salvage) and complexity (isolated CABG up to 3+ procedures) strongly influence predicted mortality.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- What are the limits and cautions when using Cardiac Surgery Mortality Risk EuroSCORE II (framework)?
- For licensed clinicians and clinical researchers. Interpret results with history, investigations and local protocols; not a diagnosis or prescription, and not a substitute for multidisciplinary decision-making or local guidelines.
- Does Cardiac Surgery Mortality Risk EuroSCORE II (framework) upload patient data? Where is it calculated?
- Calculation runs locally in the browser; inputs and results are not uploaded. For licensed clinicians only; interpret with history, investigations and local protocols — not a diagnosis or prescription.
