O-28 On-pump cardiac surgery in Western Denmark: a population based study

However, several of the existing validation studies have been hampered by methodological shortcomings. The present study aimed to assess temporal changes in risk factors and comorbidity, and to examine the predictive ability of the EuroSCORE.
