B-72 | Predicting in-hospital Mortality after Pulmonary Valve Replacement or Repair – A Comparison between the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and the Elixhauser Comorbidity Index (ECI)

Comorbidities are major predictors of in-hospital mortality. The Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) and the Elixhauser comorbidity index (ECI) are scoring systems for classifying comorbidities. We aimed to compare the performance of the CCI and ECI to predict in-hospital mortality in patients undergoing pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) or repair (PVr).
