Trial summary

The investigators aimed to evaluate whether postoperative anemia can predict 1-year mortality after valvular heart surgery independent of preoperative anemia. Patients who underwent valvular heart surgery were divided into four groups according to whether or not they had preoperative and postoperative anemia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Association Between Remote Post-operative Anemia and Mortality in Patients Undergoing Valvular Heart Surgery

The investigators aimed to evaluate whether postoperative anemia can predict 1-year mortality after valvular heart surgery independent of preoperative anemia. Patients who underwent valvular heart surgery were divided into four groups according to whether or not they had preoperative and postoperative anemia. Postoperative one-year mortality, as well as overall mortality and a composite of death and heart failure requiring hospitalization, was investigated according to the groups, adjusted by confounders.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. postoperative 1-year mortality

    The investigators assessed all-cause mortality during one year after valvular heart surgery and evaluated its association with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.

    Measured: One year after valvular heart surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. overall mortality

    The investigators assessed overall mortality during the follow-up period and a composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization during the postoperative one-year and evaluated their associations with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.

    Measured: postopeartive one-year

  2. composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization

    The investigators assessed overall mortality during the follow-up period and a composite of death and congestive heart failure (CHF) requiring rehospitalization during the postoperative one-year and evaluated their associations with preoperative and postoperative anemic status.

    Measured: postopeartive one-year

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative 1-year mortality (time frame: One year after valvular heart surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Oct 2024.
