Implication of modified MELD scores for postdischarge prognosis in hospitalized patients with heart failure

We evaluated whether modified Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores are useful for predicting the postdischarge prognosis in hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) who are discharged alive. The MELD-XI and MELD-Na scores were calculated at discharge for a total of 1156 patients in t...

Summary:We evaluated whether modified Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) scores are useful for predicting the postdischarge prognosis in hospitalized patients with heart failure (HF) who are discharged alive. The MELD-XI and MELD-Na scores were calculated at discharge for a total of 1156 patients in the HIJ-HF II study. We also studied 3 groups on the basis of the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): the HFrEF (LVEF
