Overview of the Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV as well as likelihood ratio’s for FRL-F, %FRL-V, and sFRL in the Prediction of Postoperative Liver Failure

Outcome parameter FRL-F %FRL-V sFRL
Cutoff value 2.69%/min/m2 Normal liver <30% Normal liver <30%
Compromised liver <40% Compromised liver <40%
Sensitivity 89% 78% 67%
Specificity 87% 80% 87%
PPV 57% 44% 50%
NPV 98% 95% 93%
LR+ 6.8 4.0 5.1
LR− 0.12 0.19 0.38
