ACEF score and lactate: lifeline predictors in endocarditis valve procedures: insights from a single-center study
Postoperative lactate levels and the ACEF II Score are robust predictors of mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery for endocarditis. Integrating these parameters into clinical practice can enhance risk stratification and guide therapeutic decisions, improving patient outcomes through personalized care. Further studies are needed to validate these findings across diverse populations and explore additional biomarkers for refined predictive accuracy.
