OBJECTIVE The MELD system has not yet been tested as an allocation tool for liver transplantation in the developing countries. In 2006, MELD (Model for End-stage Liver Disease) was launched as a new liver allocation system in São Paulo, Brazil. This study was designed to assess the results of the new allocation policy on waiting list mortality. METHODS The State of São Paulo liver transplant ...
Backgrounds/Aims Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score was adopted in June 2016 in Korea. Methods We analyzed changes in volumes and outcomes of deceased donor liver transplantation (DDLT) for 1 year before and after introduction of MELD scoring at Asan Medical Center. Results There were 64 cases of DDLT in 1 year before MELD introduction and 106 in 1 year after MELD introduction, ...
Background & Aims : Risk factors for r ebleeding following acute variceal haemorrhage are incompletely understood. The aim of this study was to determine the predictor validity of model for end stage liver disease (MELD) score and Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP) in acute variceal bleeding and rebleeding. Method : The study included 92 cirrhotic patients of Imam Khomeini hospital. The predictive c...
BACKGROUND & AIMS Organ allocation for liver transplantation is based on prognosis, using the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) or MELD including serum sodium (MELD-Na) score. These scores do not consider systemic inflammation and septic complications. Blood level of C-reactive protein (CRP), in addition to the MELD score, associates with mortality in patients with end-stage liver diseas...
Liver allocation policy recently was modified to use the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) for patients with chronic liver disease to stratify potential recipients according to risk for waitlist death. In this study, a retrospective cohort of 760 adult patients with chronic liver disease placed on the liver transplant waitlist between January 1995 and March 2001 and followed up for up to...
To compare the performance of eight score systems (MELD, uMELD, MELD-Na. iMELD, UKELD, MELD-AS, CTP, and mCTP) in predicting the post-transplant mortality, we analyzed the data of 6,014 adult cirrhotic patients who underwent liver transplantation between January 2003 and December 2010 from the China Liver Transplant Registry database. In hepatitis B virus (HBV) group, MELD, uMELD and MELD-AS sh...
CONTEXT Presently the MELD score is used as the waiting list criterion for liver transplantation in Brazil. In this method more critical patients are considered priority to transplantation. OBJECTIVE To compare the results of liver transplantation when the chronologic waiting list was the criterion for organ allocation (pre-MELD era) with MELD score period (MELD era) in one liver transplantat...
background variceal bleeding is one of the most serious complications of cirrhosis. up to now different methods are created for predicting the complications and mortality of cirrhosis. child- pugh score and meld score are two methods for this use. in this study we investigated and compared survival prognosis of cirrhotic patients by the child-pugh or meld score in two groups of esophageal and g...
BACKGROUND Allocation of donor livers for transplantation in most regions is based on the Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) or MELD-sodium (MELDNa). Our objective was to assess revisions to MELD and MELDNa that include serum albumin for predicting waiting list mortality. METHODS Adults registered for liver transplantation in the United States (2002-2007) were identified from the United...
We analyzed the first 100 patients who underwent liver transplantation by Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) allocation, and compared the outcome of patients on the waiting list and after orthotopic liver transplantation with the last 100 patients who underwent transplantation prior to the introduction of the MELD system in July 2007. MELD allocation resulted in decreased waiting list mor...
