Predicting lung problems after liver transplant
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses a computer program to predict lung problems after a liver transplant. It may help doctors better care for people like you.

- You are scheduled to receive a liver transplant.
- This is your first liver transplant (not a re-transplant).

This study looks at factors that affect heart health after a liver transplant. It may help doctors better predict and manage heart problems in people with end-stage liver disease who are getting a new liver.
This study is creating a database of people with severe liver problems or who have had a liver transplant. The goal is to learn more about these conditions and improve care.
This study looks at how well the HepatoPredict tool predicts outcomes for people with liver cancer who had a liver transplant or surgery to remove the tumor. The researchers are checking if the tool was accurate by reviewing data from at least 5 years after the procedure.
This study uses a simple ultrasound of the lungs to predict breathing problems after a living donor liver transplant. It may help doctors better care for patients in the ICU.
This study uses advanced blood and tissue testing to predict how well a new lung will work after transplant. If you've had a lung transplant and are stable, you may help researchers improve care for future patients.
This study looks for lab “clues” that can help predict how well someone’s lungs will do after a lung transplant. It may help doctors spot transplant-related problems earlier so care can be planned sooner.
