What this tool is based on
This versioned record keeps the citations, equation or decision rule, units, test coverage, intended population, and exclusions attached to the tool.
How evidence review works →Adults with cirrhosis when the conventional Child-Pugh classification is appropriate for the clinical, prognostic, procedural, or labeling question.
Five 1–3 point domains: bilirubin, albumin, PT prolongation/INR, ascites, and encephalopathy; class A 5–6, B 7–9, C 10–15.
Bilirubin and albumin in mg/dL and g/dL; coagulation as INR or PT seconds prolonged; ascites and encephalopathy categorical.
All 15 domain categories, 5–15 bounds, class A/B/C boundaries, and complete-answer requirement.

Limitations and exclusions
- Several domain definitions and cholestatic-disease bilirubin cutoffs vary across published implementations.
- Ascites and encephalopathy scoring are subjective and affected by treatment.
- The score does not replace MELD-based transplant allocation or indication-specific drug labeling.
- Confirm the exact convention expected by the protocol, study, or product label.
