Blood sugar control and infection risk after liver transplant
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood sugar levels during surgery affect the risk of infections after a liver transplant. It aims to see if better blood sugar control can reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must be scheduled for a planned (not emergency) liver transplant.
- You must not have an active infection requiring antibiotics.
- You must not have a condition called SIRS before surgery.
- You must not be pregnant.

This trial tests a procedure to lower blood loss during liver transplant for patients with high blood pressure in the liver. It may help those who have had a previous transplant, abdominal surgery, or certain complications of liver disease.
This study looks at people with type 2 diabetes who are either waiting for a liver transplant or have already had one. Researchers want to understand how diabetes treatment affects outcomes before and after transplant.
This study looks at what germs cause infections in people who have had a liver transplant. It aims to help doctors better prevent and treat infections after transplant.
This study tests whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help manage blood sugar levels in patients who have just received a liver transplant and have high blood sugar in the hospital.
This study looks at how the body processes sugar (glucose) in people with cirrhosis who are waiting for a liver transplant. It aims to track changes in blood sugar control before and after transplant, which may help improve care for patients with liver disease.
This study develops a tool to predict which liver transplant patients might develop infections after surgery. By identifying high-risk patients early, doctors could provide extra monitoring or preventive care to improve outcomes.
