    The study evaluated the prognostic value of early warning scores (EWS) in predicting in-hospital mortality among acute aortic dissection patients.

  • 2

    A total of 510 patients with acute aortic dissection were analyzed, revealing an in-hospital mortality rate of 33.3%.

  • 3

    Type A acute aortic dissection and surgical intervention were identified as independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.

  • 4

    Among the EWS evaluated, the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) demonstrated the highest discriminative performance, though its predictive ability was modest.

  • 5

    The study highlights the importance of timely surgical intervention for improving outcomes in patients with acute aortic dissection.
