In this study, we evaluated the utility of the SAS for predicting the severe complications in elderly patients with colorectal cancer.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We retrospectively analyzed 295 patients underwent radical surgery for colorectal cancer in elderly patients \u226575\u00a0years old. The SAS was calculated based on 3 intraoperative parameters: estimated blood loss (EBL), lowest mean arterial pressure, and lowest heart rate. Severe complications were defined as Clavien-Dindo classification grade \u2265 IIIa. We divided all patients into 2 groups according to with or without severe complications. The optimal cut-off value of SAS for severe complications has been determined by receiver operator characteristic curve. Predictors for severe complications were analyzed by logistic regression modeling.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Severe complications were observed in 57 patients (19.3%). Male, rectal cancer, operation time (&gt;240\u00a0minutes), EBL (\u2265120\u00a0mL), and a low SAS (\u22646) were significantly associated with severe complications in univariate analysis. A multivariate analysis revealed that male, rectal cancer, and a low SAS (\u22646) were independent predictors for severe complications.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A low SAS (\u22646) was associated with severe complications after colorectal cancer surgery in elderly patients.
