New score may help doctors predict ICU outcomes for liver patients
NCT ID NCT06561477
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a new scoring system called the Intensive Care Cirrhosis Outcome (ICCO) score to see how well it predicts survival in cirrhosis patients admitted to the ICU. Researchers calculated the score for 150 adult patients using routine lab tests and tracked their outcomes. The goal is to give doctors a simple, reliable tool to identify high-risk patients and improve care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If the ICCO score proves accurate, doctors may have a better tool to predict which cirrhosis patients in the ICU are most at risk, helping guide treatment decisions.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study that only tests a scoring system—it does not test a new treatment. The score may not work as well in other hospitals or patient groups.
