McDiarmid SV, Anand R, Lindblad AS. Development of a pediatric end-stage liver disease score to predict poor outcome in children awaiting liver transplantation. Transplantation. PMID: 12151728. PELD = 4.80×ln(bilirubin) + 18.57×ln(INR) − 6.87×ln(albumin) + 4.36 if younger than 1 year + 6.67 if growth failure (height or weight below −2 SD), rounded to an integer. Bilirubin, INR, and albumin below 1 are set to 1. (2002)
