FERNANDEZ RAMOS, Humberto; PANTOJA MUNOZ, Hernán Javier; POZO ROMERO, José Antonio y CORREA BORRELL, Mayda. Predictive value of the Goldman's cardiac risk multifactor rate for non-cardiac surgery. Rev cuba anestesiol reanim [online]. 2011, vol.10, n.2, pp. 91-100. ISSN 1726-6718.
To recognize opportunely the perioperative risk variables allow us to predict the morbidity and mortality, thus some risk scales in patients presenting with cardiovascular diseases were designed. Objective: To assess the sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of multifactor risk Goldman's rate in patients with heart diseases for a non-cardiac surgery. Method: A cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted in the total of patients presenting with cardiovascular disease and non-cardiac surgical disease from January, 2010 to September, 2010 admitted in the "Manuel Ascunce Domenech" Universitary Hospital of Camaguey city. Sample included 30 patients from the universe fulfilled the inclusion criterion. The study variables were: age, sex, types and urgency of intervention, relation between the risk and the presence of complications. Results: There was predominance of patients aged between 50 and 69 (57%), male sex (20 patients), laparoscopic procedures (10 patients) and elective (73%). There was a frequency of low risk patients (20) where most have not complications 15 of them) and those considered as of high risk presenting complications during their course (9 of 10 patients). The Goldman's rate showed a high specificity (93.7%) and a positive predictive value (90%). Conclusion: The Goldman's rate has a high likelihood to predict complications in high risk patients; however, it is necessary to use other scales to determine accurately the perioperative risk.
