Frequently Asked Questions
Class A (5-6 points): well-compensated disease, 100% 1-yr survival. Class B (7-9 points): significant impairment, 80% 1-yr survival. Class C (10-15 points): decompensated, 45% 1-yr survival.
Before hepatic resection, portosystemic shunt surgery, or any major surgery in cirrhotic patients. Class C is generally considered prohibitive for elective surgery.
Child-Pugh uses 5 parameters including clinical features (ascites, encephalopathy). MELD uses only labs (bilirubin, creatinine, INR) and is better for predicting 3-month mortality in liver disease.
