EURO AAOCA study database on management for "ANOMALOUS AORTIC ORIGIN OF CORONARY ARTERIES.
This is a simple Excel database in 8 sections (see below). The patient's identification (ID) should be anonymous, and can be decided by each center; the investigators suggest to enclose Centre ID number (which is communicated by the leading center) and a sequential number or date of birth (dd/mm/yy).
If no procedure has been done for the patients , it is required to the "PERIPROCEDURAL, SURGICAL DETAILS" and "POSTPROCEDURAL" data sheets (which are outlined in RED). In the "PERIPROCEDURAL" sheet, the participants may refer either to the surgical or non surgical procedure.
Baseline and long term clinical evaluation sections must be completed for all patients.
In the database, there are lists of multiple different variables which are summarized in tables enclosed in the section, in which each item corresponds to a number.
