When to use
- Estimating 90-day and 1-year mortality in patients with clinically diagnosed alcoholic (alcohol-associated) hepatitis.
Formula
ABIC = (age x 0.1) + (total bilirubin[mg/dL] x 0.08) + (serum creatinine[mg/dL] x 0.3) + (INR x 0.8). <6.71 = low risk, 6.71-9.00 = intermediate risk, >9.00 = high risk.
Pearls and pitfalls
- Derived and validated in Spanish cohorts of biopsy-proven or clinically diagnosed alcoholic hepatitis.
- Performed at least as well as MELD, modified Maddrey discriminant function, and Glasgow alcoholic hepatitis score in the original cohort.
