“…A remark made regarding the analysis of this study and other studies applied in different populations [4][5][6][7]11,[15][16][17] suggests that it is not the type of the patient as a result of his/her ethnicity that defined the surgical outcomes, but the patient as a result of the control of risk factors. For that reason, we should not continue insisting on the premise that a different ethnic group would not validate the applicability of these models [19,20].…”

“…The EuroSCORE was used successfully. It was retrospectively and posteriorly used in both CABG [4,15] and heart valve surgeries [16], respectively, at the Heart Institute of Pernambuco. There are studies showing a better performance of the EuroSCORE model in relation to the original Parsonnet model score [5][6][7]12].…”

“…It was observed that patients with adverse outcome had a higher mean score (statistically significant) compared to patients who had a successful outcome (survival: 6.57 ± 0.53 versus deaths: 10.93 ± 2.23, P <0.001, Table 6). Other Brazilian studies [23,24] validated this system in CABG and heart valve surgery as a satisfactory predictor of operative mortality being: the higher the surgical risk, the higher scores.…”

“…In contrast, a study conducted by Moraes et al with a group of 752 patients who underwent CABGS at the Instituto do Coração de Pernambuco in 2003 and 2004, the EuroSCORE proved to be a simple and objective scale and was a satisfactory predictor of surgical mortality 7 . Andrade et al assessed the applicability of the EuroSCORE with 840 patients undergoing valve surgery and observed that the score proved to be a satisfactory predictor of surgical mortality and helpful for identifying risk during valve surgery in Pernambuco 8 . There are many differences between countries in terms of the indications for surgery, technical capacity and the characteristics of the patients given CABGS.…”
