The mean LOS was 21.4 ± 17.7 days. Both classification systems were correlated with LOS, yet CCI was stronger(Spearman’s ρ: 0.694 vs 0.602, P < 0.001). Female patients (P = 0.019) and patients with pre-transplant cardiovascularevents (P = 0.02) had longer LOS. After adjusted multivariable analysis, the link between LOS and both theCDC and CCI remained relevant. CCI had a superior fit compared to CDC (r2 = 0.729 vs r2 = 0.481), with every 10CCI points being associated with a 5.27 day (P < 0.001) increased LOS.CONCLUSIONThis study showed that the CCI was better linked with LOS compared to CDC and might represent a useful scoreto evaluate the overall burden of postoperative complications in patients undergoing SPK.展开更多
