Determination of correlation of Adjusted Blood Requirement Index with outcome in patients presenting with acute variceal bleeding

Table 1 Child’s Pugh score was calculated (using formula)

Parameter	Numerical score
	1	2	3
Ascites	None	Slight	Moderate to severe
Encephalopathy	None	Slight to moderate	Moderate to severe
Bilirubin (mg/dL)	< 2.0	2-3	> 3.0
Albumin (g/dL)	> 3.5	2.8-3.5	< 2.8
Prothrombin time (prolonged in seconds)	1-3 s	4-6 s	> 6.0

Child’s Pugh Class A = 5-6 points; Child’s Pugh Class B = 7-9 points; Child’s Pugh Class C = 10-15 points.

		Outcome		Total
		Alive	Expired
ABRI groups	Controlled	27	0	27
	Uncontrolled	67	19	86
Total		94	19	113
