Factor Information
Data ID 2300
Factor Surgical history:Previous thoracotomy--In Relation to Lung Function
Description Moderate to severe impairment of lung function related to complexity of underlying cardiac defect, enlarged cardiothoracic ratio, previous thoracotomy/ies, body mass index, scoliosis, and diaphragm palsy.
Biomarker NA
Classification A3 (clinical factor - disease & symptom)
Association
Application risk assessment
Objective We investigated the prevalence of abnormal lung function, its relation to severity of underlying cardiac defect, its surgical history, and its impact on outcome across the spectrum of adult congenital heart disease.
