We aimed to test the hypothesis that management of such patients without ICP monitoring or LT would yield outcomes similar to those reported with conventional management. We interrogated a database of all patients treated in an intensive care unit for acetaminophen\u2010induced ALF between November 2010 and October 2016 and obtained relevant information from electronic medical records. We studied 64 patients (58 females) with a median age of 38 years. Such patients had a high prevalence of depression, substance abuse, or other psychiatric disorders and had ingested a median acetaminophen dose of 25 g. No patient received ICP monitoring or LT. Overall, 51 (79.7%) patients survived. Of the 42 patients who met King\u2019s College Hospital (KCH) criteria, 29 (69.0%) survived without transplantation. There were 45 patients who developed severe hepatic encephalopathy, and 32 (71.1%) of these survived. Finally, compared with the KCH criteria, the current UK Registration Criteria for Super\u2010Urgent Liver Transplantation (UKRC) for super\u2010urgent LT had better sensitivity (92.3%) and specificity (80.4%) for hospital mortality. In conclusion, in a center applying a no ICP monitoring and no LT approach to the management of acetaminophen\u2010induced ALF, during a 6\u2010year period, overall survival was 79.7%, and for patients fulfilling KCH criteria, it was 69.0%, which were both higher than for equivalent patients treated with conventional management as reported in the literature. Finally, the current UKRC may be a better predictor of hospital mortality in this patient population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/lt.25377","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,31]],"date-time":"2018-10-31T16:02:03Z","timestamp":1541001723000},"page":"35-44","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Outcome of Acetaminophen\u2010Induced Acute Liver Failure Managed Without Intracranial Pressure Monitoring or Transplantation"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"25","author":[{"given":"Jennifer","family":"Porteous","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4993-427X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Luca","family":"Cioccari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"},{"name":"Department of Intensive Care Medicine,University Hospital, University of Bern,Bern,Switzerland"},{"name":"Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Research Centre, School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine,Monash University,Prahran,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paolo","family":"Ancona","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eduardo","family":"Osawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kelly","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Gow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Liver Transplant Unit,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter","family":"Angus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Liver Transplant Unit,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Stephen","family":"Warrillow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rinaldo","family":"Bellomo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Intensive Care,Austin Hospital,Melbourne,Victoria,Australia"},{"name":"Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Research Centre, School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine,Monash University,Prahran,Victoria,Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"lt25377-bib-0001-20240115","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"947","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-137-12-200212170-00007","article-title":"Results of a prospective study of acute liver failure at 17 tertiary care centers in the United States","volume":"137","year":"2002","journal-title":"Ann Intern Med"},{"key":"lt25377-bib-0002-20240115","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"945","DOI":"10.1093\/qjmed\/hcr098","article-title":"Acute liver failure in Scotland between 1992 and 2009;
