Hospital at Home for Cirrhosis Recovery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests whether recovering from cirrhosis at home, with a nurse visiting daily, works as well as staying in the hospital. You'll be enrolled in the Hospital at Home program and need a caregiver to help for the first two days.

This study tests how well a smartphone app helps people with cirrhosis who have been hospitalized for sudden liver problems. It aims to improve care and access to treatment after you go home.
This trial tests if injecting donated liver cells into the main artery feeding the liver can help people with decompensated cirrhosis. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and might improve liver function.
This pilot study tests whether a “home hospital” program can safely care for people with advanced liver disease after they are admitted to the hospital. It may reduce time in the hospital while still treating serious complications like fluid buildup, breathing fluid, or confusion from liver disease.
This study looks at new blood markers to better predict recovery in patients hospitalized for complications of cirrhosis (like fluid buildup, confusion, or bleeding). You may qualify if you were recently hospitalized for these issues and are expected to go home soon.
This trial tests a practical hospital-based program to improve how care is delivered to adults with cirrhosis. If you’re eligible, you may receive care that follows the trial’s improved approach and helps the team learn what works best.
This trial tests if telemedicine (video or phone check-ins) can improve care for people with advanced liver disease. It may offer a more convenient way to manage your condition.
