The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) IV score and Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) 3 include liver transplantation as a diagnostic category. The performance of APACHE IV-liver transplantation (LT) specific predicted mortality, SAPS 3, APACHE II, Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD)-Na, MELD, and CTP scores in predicting in-hospital and 1 year mortality in liver transplant patients was compared using 590 liver transplantations in a single university hospital. In-hospital mortality and 1 year mortality were 2.9% and 4.2%, respectively. The APACHE IV-LT specific predicted mortality showed better performance in predicting in-hospital mortality (AUC 0.91, 95% CI [0.86–0.96]) compared to SAPS 3 (AUC 0.78, 95% CI [0.66–0.90],  p  = 0.01), MELD-Na (AUC 0.74, 95% CI [0.57–0.86],  p  = 0.01), and CTP (AUC 0.68, 95% CI [0.54–0.81],  p  = 0.01). The APACHE IV-LT specific predicted mortality showed better performance in predicting 1 year mortality (AUC 0.83, 95% CI [0.76–0.9]) compared to MELD-Na (AUC 0.67, 95% CI [0.55–0.79],  p  = 0.04) and CTP (AUC 0.64, 95% CI [0.53–0.75],  p  = 0.03), and also in all MELD groups and in both living and deceased donor transplantation. The APACHE IV-LT specific predicted mortality showed better performance in predicting in-hospital and 1 year mortality after liver transplantation.
