The updated average DALYs and YLLs per month of delay for the investigated surgical procedures based on the simulation of surgery delay of 52 weeks. The estimates (gray bars) and 95% confidence intervals (black lines) are shown. AAA indicates aneurysm of the abdominal aorta; AP, angina pectoris; ASD, atrial septum defect; AV, aortic valve; AVR, aortic valve replacement; ca., cancer; CABG, coronary artery bypass graft; COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; DALY, disability-adjusted life-years; ESHF, end-stage heart failure; ESLD, end-stage liver disease; ESRD, end-stage renal disease; EVAR, endovascular aortic repair; HIPEC, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; insuff, insufficiency; LVAD, left ventricle assist device; MI, muscle invasive; MVR, mitral valve replacement; NSCLC, non-small cell lung carcinoma; PAD F2, peripheral arterial disease Fontaine classification 2; PAD F3-4, peripheral arterial disease Fontaine classification 3-4; PCI, percutaneous coronary intervention; TAVI, transaortic valve implantation; UUT, upper urinary tract; VATS, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery; YLL, years of life lost.
