Objectives: Cardiovascular surgery still carries significant morbidity and mortality, both in the immediate postoperative period and in the long term. This line of research was structured to deepen the study and define surgical risk scores for various procedures related to cardiovascular intervention, based on the construction of specific, multicenter databases.
