Allocation of patients with liver cirrhosis and organ failure to intensive care: Systematic review and a proposal for clinical practice

Table 2 Scoring systems to predict mortality

Score	Target	Number of studies	AUCROC range(min-max)
Child-Pugh	Prognostic1	14	0.71-0.87
MELD	Prognostic1	8	0.77-0.93
RFH	Prognostic1	1	0.79
SOFA	Organ failure2	11	0.81-0.95
APACHE II	Prognostic in ICU3	9	0.66-0.83
APACHE III	Prognostic in ICU3	4	0.78-0.91

¹Prognostic: score used to assess the prognosis of chronic liver disease;

²Organ failure: score with the objective to evaluate the degree of organ failure;

³Prognostic in ICU: severity of disease classification score. The table describes the performance of the presented scoring systems[17,19-35]. AUROC: Areal Under the Reciever Operating Curve; Range (min-max) describing the minimum and maximum reported AUC for the given score, based on published trials[17,19-35]. ICU: Intensive care unit; MELD: Model of End-stage Liver Disease; RFH: Royal Free Hospital Score; SOFA: Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score; APACHE: Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation.
