Paul Q. Reynolds

[8]

2011

Cohort study

All kind of surgeries

123,864

There was a direct correlation between the SAS and the probability of Postoperative death

Not applicable

• Death

• A weak association between SAS and mortality among burn patients

Kyoko Shiozaki

[74]

Prospectively study

craniotomy, neck surgery, thoracotomy,

laparotomy, hip or pelvic surgery,

spinal surge

SAS can predict serious unfavorable following major surgery

Not applicable

• Respiratory failure

• Pulmonary embolism

• Pulmonary edema

• Acute myocardial infarction

• Cardiac arrest

• Deep venous thromboembolism

Maxim A. Terekhov

[75]

2015

Retrospective cohort

Non cardiac surgery

44,835

This score alone was a considerable predictor of 30-day death

Not applicable

• 30 day mortality

• Hospital mortality

Nina E. Glass

[78]

2015

Prospective study

Any operation

2125

SAS is accompanied by a long ICU stay following elective postoperative admission

SAS ≤ 7

• Postoperative ICU Admission

Christopher C. Thorn [79]

2012

Prospective study

General surgical and vascular procedures, lower limb joint replacement, emergency fractured neck of the femur

223

SAS can predict emergency general and vascular outcomes

It appears that the SAS is a useful adjunct in making decision in orthopedic surgery context
