Abstract
Key summary pointsAimThe aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of the Liver Frailty Index (LFI) and the Multidimensional Prognostic Index (MPI) as predictors of mortality in a cohort of older adult patients being evaluated for liver transplantationFindingsOn the 68 patients studied, ROC curve analysis showed that MPI was similar or slightly better than LFI as predictor of mortality (AUC 0.7, p=0.007, and AUC 0.689, p=0.015, respectively).MessageIn older people patients listed for liver transplantation, MPI is as good a prognostic tool as LFI for predicting mortality.
