Objective: To find the prognostic validity of fibrosis index-4 for mortality in patients with chronic liver disease. Materials and method: a cross-sectional analytical study was carried out, a retrospective cohort from medical records, using the STATA program version 15.2; the normality of the quantitative variable was analyzed, for the association between the FIB-4 score and the presence of mortality, logistic regression was used in crude models and adjusted with the variables intervening in mortality. Results: The medical records of 320 patients were reviewed, of which 313 were included due to the selection criteria. A survival model was carried out, it was found that patients with a longer illness time were less likely to die during the current hospitalization time. A sensitivity of 56.25% was found for the MELD scale compared to 92.54% for Fib-4, while a higher specificity for the MELD scale compared to its counterpart for general mortality. The area under the ROC curve according to general mortality for FIB 4 was 0.8477 while for MELD it was 0.8649. Conclusions: the FIB-4 and MELD scale are valid for the prediction of mortality in patients with chronic liver disease.
