Risk stratification is a statistical process by which quality of care can be assessed independently of patient case-mix. Evaluation of risk-adjusted patient outcome has become an important part of managed care contracting in some markets, and risk-adjusted outcome rates for hospitals are being reported more frequently in the popular press and on the ...

Perioperative Risk Stratification and Modification
Anesthesiology Clinics, 2022This article discusses the important topic of perioperative risk stratification and the interventions that can be used in the perioperative period for risk modification. It begins with a brief overview of the commonly used scoring systems, risk-prediction models, and assessments of functional capacity and discusses some of the evidence behind each.

Risk stratification of pulmonary embolism
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2023Purpose of review Pulmonary embolism is the third most frequent type of cardiovascular disease behind coronary artery disease and stroke. Patients with acute pulmonary embolism have significant variability in short-term mortality from less than 0.6% in low-risk patients to 19% in high-risk patients. Risk stratification plays an

Risk stratification in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1994Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a primary myocardial disorder with an autosomal pattern of inheritance, characterized by asymmetric left ventricular hypertrophy with myocyte and myofibrillar disarray. Approximately 30% to 50% of all cases are accounted for by mutations in the beta-cardiac myosin heavy chain gene on chromosome 14q1.

Risk Stratification of Pulmonary Embolism
Critical Care Clinics, 2020Given the broad treatment options, risk stratification of pulmonary embolism is a highly desirable component of management. The ideal tool identifies patients at risk of death from the original or recurrent pulmonary embolism. Using all-cause death in the first 30-days after pulmonary embolism diagnosis as a surrogate, clinical parameters, biomarkers ...

The risk stratification in atrial fibrillation
Internal and Emergency Medicine, 2012Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disorder and represents a major public health problem because it carries an increased risk of arterial thromboembolism and ischemic stroke. Because the absolute benefit of antithrombotic therapy depends on the underlying risk of stroke, an accurate stratification of patients' risk is needed to choose ...

Risk Stratification in Electrical Cardiomyopathies
Herz, 2009Electrical cardiomyopathies contain the long QT syndrome (LQTS), the short QT syndrome (SQTS), the Brugada syndrome, and the catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Patients diagnosed with an electrical cardiomyopathy have an increased risk of syncope and sudden cardiac death (SCD).

Risk stratification in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Herz, 2018Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the most devastating complication of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The greatest challenge in the management of HCM is identifying those at increased risk, since an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) is a potentially life-saving therapy.

Risk stratification in Eisenmenger syndrome
Archives of Cardiovascular DiseasesPulmonary arterial hypertension complicating congenital heart disease can progress to the life-threatening irreversible form known as Eisenmenger syndrome. When conservative treatments are inadequate, the risk of death as a result of the disease must be weighed against the risk associated with transplantation.
