In interpreting the<unk>  Score in hospitalized patients, the 3 month observed mortality (considering adult liver transplant candidates with chronic liver<unk>  who were added to the OPTN waiting list at 2A or 2B status between November, 1999, and December, 2001) is: * 40 or more — 71.3% observed mortality * 30–39 — 52.6% observed mortality * 20–29 — 19.6% observed mortality * 10–19 — 6.0% observed mortality * <9 — 1.9% observed mortality Applications of<unk>  score: * The best outcomes with TIPS occur among patients with a<unk>  score less than 14. * Patients with<unk>  scores greater than 24 who are reasonable liver transplant candidates are probably best served by foregoing TIPS placement.
