Table 2.

The change to MELDNa score based on kidney dysfunction type at 5 point MELDNa intervals

At a MELDNa of*:
10 15 20 25 30 35 40
AKD +0.22 +1.26 +2.30 +3.35 +4.39 +5.44 +6.48
CKD −4.09 −2.98 −1.88 −0.77 +0.33 +1.44 +2.55
AKD on CKD −0.73 +0.33 +1.40 +2.46 +3.53 +4.59 +5.66

AKD (Acute Kidney Disease); CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease)

*

These were calculated using the following equations:

AKD: (MELDNa × 0.035480 – 0.318060)/(0.134426+0.035480);

CKD: (MELDNa × 0.038190 – 1.087994)/(0.134426+0.038190);

AKD on CKD: (MELDNa × 0.036395 – 0.488997)/(0.134426+0.036395

*

+ indicate points that were added to the MELDNa score; - indicate points that were deducted from the MELDNa score
