Conclusions LVEF≤ 60% is strongly associated with higher post‐LT mortality rates in the
MELD≥ 20 group, indicating the need to appraise both LVEF and liver disease severity
simultaneously. Enhanced diastolic elastance with low EDVI provides insights into
pathogenesis of low LVEF in nonsurvivors with MELD≥ 20.
