The American College of Surgeon National Surgical Quality Improvement Program risk calculator does not predict individual outcomes in an elderly Italian population
The ACS-NSQIP SRC demonstrated poor ability to predict post-operative complications and geriatric outcomes in our cohort of elderly patients. Our findings confirm other studies that temper the enthusiasm towards the NSQIP SRC as a practical tool to predict post-operative complications, especially in an urgent setting.
