Key Words	Cirrhosis; Failure; Intensive care; Allocation; Treatment
Core Tip	The literature regarding allocation of cirrhotic patients to intensive care unit (ICU) is very limited and no studies have proposed and tested any specific allocation criteria. Thus it still remains to be determined, which cirrhotic patients will benefit from intensive care treatment, and if so, when during admission they should be transferred to the ICU, and when intensive treatment is futile and should be withheld. We propose an allocation system for clinical practice, based on internationally validated scoring systems.
