Please remember this is only good for 90 days this does not talk about long term prognosis, ChildPugh is often used for that.

Child Pugh (Better for "long term" idea)

Remember please that no calculator is perfect, there have been people that get worse rapidly, but also people who are "as bad as can be" that recover. Live your life, don't live your number is what doctor's say!
