Telemedicine to help treat decompensated cirrhosis
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have decompensated cirrhosis (advanced liver disease with complications like fluid buildup or confusion).
- Your liver disease is classified as Child-Pugh score B or C (moderate to severe).
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You can come for an in-person visit at least every 3 months.
- You do not have an active cancer, and if you had cancer in the past, it must have been cured for at least 2 years.

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 whether using remote monitoring (checking your health from home) can help manage liver cirrhosis. It aims to make care easier and catch problems early without extra hospital visits.
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 trial tests umbilical-cord stem cells to see if they can improve outcomes in people with decompensated (worsening) cirrhosis. You may be considered if your liver disease is moderate to severe (MELD 15–30) and you do not have certain high-risk problems right now.
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.
