Brief summary

This prospective study investigates prognostic values and compares the role of nutritional status by using GNRI, MNA-SF, PNI, and NAF in predicting post-operative pulmonary complication among elderly patients with cardiac surgery.

Detailed description

In this prospective cohort study, 217 patients aged ≥60 years undergoing elective cardiac surgery at a tertiary university hospital were enrolled. Preoperative nutritional status was assessed using GNRI, MNA-SF, PNI, and NAF. The primary outcome was PPC occurrence during hospitalization. Predictive performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis, and multivariable logistic regression identified independent predictors
