Assessing the prognosis of patients with liver failure in time and accurately is very important for this kind of patients. Here we reviewed the new models in recent years,including the advantages,disadvantages and the use of conditions of MELD score, SOFA score, improved SOFA score,and ALFED model. We also discussed some new biological markers of liver failure.
