Popis:	Background and Aims Hospital admissions in cirrhotic patients are a source of significant health care expenditure. Most studies to date have focused on readmissions in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. We sought to describe predictors of hospital admissions in an ambulatory cirrhosis cohort consisting of both compensated and decompensated patients to identify patients who could benefit from intensified outpatient chronic disease management.
