Abstrakt: This study aimed to determine how acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) impacts patients' quality of life. The 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) was used to measure quality of life. The eight SF-36 scales were aggregated into a two-factor summary: physical and mental component summary scales (PCS and MCS). One hundred fourteen patients were included in the ATAAD group and 81 patients in the aortic valve replacement (AVR) group. All patients underwent surgery between June 2007 and December 2018. Surveys were completed after the operation. The mean scaled score of the ATAAD group decreased significantly in all eight domains of the SF-36 survey after aortic dissection repair except mental health. Also, the postsurgery PCS score was significantly lower than the presurgery score (39 vs 49; P < 0.0001). Multivariable regression confirmed the negative impact of ATAAD on postsurgery PCS score and higher presurgery PCS score had a significant positive impact. The postsurgery MCS score did not change significantly (49 vs 50; P = 0.32), but higher preoperative MCS score had a significant positive impact on the postsurgery MCS score. Age, sex, connective tissue disorders, and stroke did not contribute significantly to the postsurgery PCS and MCS scores. The AVR group had significantly increased postsurgery PCS and MCS scores compared to the presurgery scores (47 vs 41; P < 0.0001) and (53 vs 51; P = 0.02) respectively. Patients reported significantly decreased physical health after recovery from acute type A aortic dissection repair. A multidisciplinary approach is needed to improve patients' quality of life.
