Background: To evaluate the capacity of BARS to predict 90-day, 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival after liver transplantation (LTx). The Balance of Risk Score (BARS), proposed by the Swiss Hepato-pancreato-biliary and Transplant Center, University Hospital Zurich, Switzerland, was conceptualized to determine survival after LTx preemptively.
Sample And Methods: This was a retrospective observational study on 866 cases of LTx among adults (>18 years) performed within the transplantation program at Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2015.
