Popis: BACKGROUND AND AIMS Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant cause of morbidity, cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. CHA2DS2VASc is a score system used in patients with atrial fibrillation to predict thromboembolic risk. However, it also appears to be useful to predict mortality risk. The aim of the study was to evaluate the CHA2D2SVASc score as a tool to predict 1-year mortality after starting haemodialysis and identify factors associated with higher mortality. METHOD Retrospective analysis of patients who started haemodialysis between January of 2014 and December of 2019 at Centro Hospitalar Universitário Lisboa Norte. We evaluated mortality within 1 year of starting haemodialysis. The CHA2D2SVASc score was calculated at the start of haemodialysis. Variables were submitted to univariate and multivariate analysis to determine factors predictive of 1-year mortality after HD start. We assessed the logistic regression method of the CHA2DS2VASc to predict 1-year mortality and the discriminatory ability was determined using the receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS Of 856 patients analyzed, the mean age was 68.3 ± 15.5 years, the majority were male (61.1%) and Caucasian (84.5%). Mortality within 1 year after haemodialysis started was 17.8% (n = 152). The CHA2D2SVASc score was significantly higher (4.4 ± 1.7 versus 3.5 ± 1.8; P < .001) in patients who died and accurately predicted the 1-year risk of mortality {AUC: 0.646, [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.6–0.7]; P < .001}, with a sensitivity 71.7% and specificity of 49.1%, a positive predictive value of 23.9% and a negative predictive value of 89.2%. In the multivariate analysis, CHA2D2SVASc ≥3.5 (adjusted OR: 2.24, 95% CI 1.48–3.37; P < .001] and central venous catheter at dialysis start (adjusted HR: 3.06, 95% CI 1.93–4.85) were significant predictors of 1-year mortality. CONCLUSION CHA2D2SVASc score ≥ 3.5 and central venous catheter at haemodialysis start were predictors of 1-year mortality, allowing for risk stratification in haemodialysis patients.
