Abstract

In recent years, numerous medical databases have been constructed in a wide range of fields with the goal of applications aimed at improving the quality of medical care and welfare in each field. In the field of cardiovascular surgery, the Japan Cardiovascular Surgery Database (JCVSD) has been constructed, in which all cardiovascular surgery cases have been registered.

The number of input fields is about 500, with the information roughly divided into preoperative, surgical and postoperative groups. A risk model was constructed based on the JCVSD data, from which JapanSCORE, a risk analysis model, was developed.

The very high accuracy of the JCVSD data was confirmed by Site Visits. Furthermore, clinical research projects using this data were also carried out. In the future, in cooperation with external organizations, it is expected that the data will greatly benefit both medical device development and evaluation of medical technology.
