The Role of the CHA₂DS₂-VASc Score in predicting postoperative Atrial Fibrillation after pulmonary resection
The CHA<sub>2</sub>DS<sub>2</sub>-VASc score may be a valuable tool not only to assess thromboembolic risk but also to predict the development of PAF after thoracic surgery. With this scoring, high-risk patients can be identified in advance, appropriate prophylactic measures can be taken, and postoperative morbidity and mortality can be reduced.
