Validation of CAGIB Score for In-hospital Mortality of Cirrhotic Patients With Acute Gastrointestinal Bleeding

Recruiting
Conditions
GastroIntestinal Bleeding
Registration Number
NCT04662918
Lead Sponsor
Xingshun Qi
Brief Summary

Acute gastrointestinal bleeding is potentially lethal in liver cirrhosis. Accurate assessment of prognosis is critical in a timely fashion. A novel model, CAGIB score, has been developed based on our Chinese multicenter retrospective study. Now, a prospective, international multicenter, observational study will be performed to further compare the performance of CAGIB versus Child-Pugh and MELD scores for evaluating the in-hospital mortality of patients with liver cirrhosis and acute gastrointestinal bleeding.
