Clinical prediction rules exist to help diagnosis cirrhosis.[1]
- Pohl's Index is if the AST/ALT ratio ≥1 and platelet count ≤ 150,000/mm3 then cirrhosis is very likely.[2]
- The Bonacini score is based on the ALT/AST ratio, platelet count, and INR.[3]
In diagnosis of cirrhosis (Ishak scores, 5-6) in patients with hepatitis C, the aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index (APRI) ratio > 1 suggests cirrhosis with accuracy of:[5]
- Sensitivity = 79%
- Specificity = 78%
