It has been used to determine priorities in organ allocation for patients awaiting liver transplantation in the United States since 2002.
- MELD 3.0: The Model for End-stage Liver Disease Updated for the Modern ...The current version (MELDNa), consisting of INR and serum bilirubin, creatinine, and sodium, has been used to determine organ allocation priorities for liver transplantation in the United States (US). The objective was to optimize MELD further by taking into account additional variables and updating coefficients with contemporary data. Methods:
- MELD Na (UNOS/OPTN) - MDCalcMELD Na (UNOS/OPTN) Quantifies end-stage liver disease for transplant planning with sodium. IMPORTANT. We’ve updated and combined our MELD scores into one page. Clinicians can choose the formula that best fits their needs: the original MELD score; the current MELD-Na used by UNOS/OPTN, and the 2022 MELD 3.0 score. Click here to view. INSTRUCTIONS.
- Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) - UpToDateMELD OVERVIEW. The original MELD score is a prospectively developed and validated chronic liver disease severity scoring system that uses a patient's laboratory values for serum bilirubin, serum creatinine, and the international normalized ratio (INR) for prothrombin time to predict three-month survival (original MELD score).
- Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) for ages 12 and olderThe Model for Liver Disease (MELD) predicts survival for persons with advanced liver disease. The United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) made a policy change regarding a revision in the MELD scoring system on January 11, 2016 that is related to transplant listing.
