Eurotransplant Donor Risk Index in Liver Transplantation (ET-DRI)
Description
A vectorised function to calculate the Eurotransplant Donor Risk Index for liver transplantation. The ET-DRI is a variant of the American DRI published by Feng et al but adapted to the European population. The American liver DRI is available using the transplantr::liver_dri() function.
Usage
et_dri(age, cod, dcd, split, share, cit, ggt, rescue)
Arguments
age |
numeric vector of patient ages in years |
cod |
character string vector of donor causes of death, one of "trauma", "anoxia", "cva" or "other" |
dcd |
numeric vector of whether DCD (1 = yes, 0 = no) |
split |
numeric vector of whether liver split (1 = yes, 0 = no) |
share |
character string vector of type of sharing, one of "local", regional" or "national" |
cit |
numeric vector of cold ischaemic times in hours |
ggt |
numeric vector of last pre-transplant serum gamma-GT level in IU/l |
rescue |
numeric vector of whether rescue transplant (1 = yes, 0 = no) |

Value
numeric vector of ET-DRI scores
Examples
et_dri(age = 39, cod = "trauma", dcd = 0, split = 0, share = "local",
cit = 8, ggt = 50, rescue = 0) # 1.00
et_dri(age = 25, cod = "cva", dcd = 0, split = 0, share = "local",
cit = 8, ggt = 50, rescue = 0) # 1.15
