Since the implementation of the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score to determine waitlist priority for liver transplant (LT) in 2002, the score has been capped at 40. Recently, the MELD 3.0 score was proposed to improve upon MELD-Na. Here, we examine waitlist mortality and LT outcomes in patients with MELD 3.0 ≥ 40 to assess the potential impact of uncapping the score.

终末期肝病模型以上的终末期肝病患者死亡率 3.0 / 40


自2002年实施终末期肝病（MELD）评分模型以确定肝移植（LT）等候名单优先级以来，该评分上限一直为40分。最近，提出了MELD 3.0评分，以改进MELD-呐。在这里，我们检查了 MELD 3.0 ≥ 40 患者的候补死亡率和 LT 结局，以评估取消评分上限的潜在影响。
