Filter by:The purpose of this study is to work with patients diagnosed with end-stage liver disease to understand their perspectives on the Health at Home (H@H) Program, including desired outcomes and expectations, perceived barriers, and drivers. H@H is an emerging model of home-based care, designed to extend traditional, inpatient hospital care which may address these needs. Through H@H, acute medical care services as well as ancillary care such as rehabilitation therapy can be delivered in the home. The study is divided into three phases: Phase 1 occurs while the participant is an inpatient. Phase 2 is when the actual H@H program takes place as part of the participant's clinical care. The study team will not be involved in the Phase 2 - H@H program as it will be conducted by the clinical staff. Phase 3, at which point the participant enters a rehabilitation phase to transition the patient to self-management, involves a research jam session with the participant and caregiver to assess the value of the program.
This is a multi-center, nested cohort study intended to investigate the prevalence, risk factors, and outcomes of complications in patients with acutely decompensated cirrhosis, especially focused on Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation, bacterial infections, hepatic encephalopathy, and Hepatorenal syndrome. Patients diagnosed with acutely decompensated cirrhosis were enrolled. Upon enrollment, detailed baseline data were collected and samples were harvested. Complications were assessed during hospitalization. Post-discharge follow-up was conducted through telephonic interviews at Day 30 and Day 90.
Cirrhosis is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality world- wide and can develop on the basis of repetitive and/or chronic liver injury due to toxic, infectious, metabolic and genetic pathogenic factors. Traditionally, the natural history of cirrhosis has often been considered a one-way street, with a definite and irreversible progression from a compensated to a decompensated disease stage. But recent data has shown that if the underlying etiology can be successfully treated, cirrhosis can regress and recompensation of liver disease can occur. Hence, in this study we want to evaluate the incidence and predictive factors of recompensation in pediatric subjects with decompensated cirrhosis as per the Baveno VII criteria. We would also evaluate the predictive factors of recompensation in pediatric decompensated chronic liver disase (DCLD) subjects and would explore systemic and intestinal inflammatory markers as possible biomarkers for predicting recompensation in pediatric subjects with decompensated cirrhosis.
This study protocol is designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety, and tolerability of HCL001 cell injection in the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. The aim is to provide stronger evidence for the clinical application of HCL001 cell injection in the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis, thereby attempting to improve patients' survival and quality of life to meet the clinical needs for treating decompensated liver cirrhosis.
The project is about evaluation of albumin and midodrine versus midodrine alone in outcome of recurrent ascites in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Cirrhosis occcurs in 50% of patients over 10 years. The mortality is approximately 40% at 1 year and 50% at 2 years (12.7 per 100,000 population). A lot of times the prognosis is poor and the main factors leading to it are - acute kidney injury, hepatorenal syndrome, hyponatremia, grade of ascites-recurrent ascites, sarcopenia, low mean arterial pressure. Post review of the literature, it is realized that there are some gap areas - - It is unknown whether combination of vasoconstrictor with albumin versus vasoconstrictor alone is superior for ascites resolution in patients with recurrent ascites. - There are no studies till date on using combination of vasoconstrictor with albumin versus vasoconstrictor alone in patients with recurrent ascites. - There are no studies on impact of combining vasoconstrictor and albumin in preventing the development of AKI and chronic kidney disease in these patients. In an effort to bridge these gap areas, this project works on the following hypothesis - "Midodrine would have a synergistic effect with albumin in improving the systemic hemodynamics and circulatory dysfunction and will cause rapid control of ascites, reduce the incidence of large volume paracentesis (LVP), complications, reduce the incidence of chronic kidney disease (HRS-CKD) and improve outcome of patients with recurrent ascites in patients with decompensated cirrhosis as compared to midodrine alone" Primary objective: To assess the effect of midodrine alone vs. a combination of midodrine and albumin on the survival free of TIPS and liver transplant at 6 months Secondary objective: The effect of midodrine alone vs. combination of midodrine and albumin on the cumulative frequency of therapeutic paracentesis at 6 and 12 months Proportion of patients achieving control of ascites at 6 and 12 months
The CirrhoCare trial is a multi-centre, open label randomised controlled trial in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. The trial aims to investigate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of CirrhoCare digital home monitoring and management with current standard of care in these patients.
Diabetes prevalence is increasing among cirrhotics and use of OAD in cirrhotics is limited because of risk of hypoglycaemia and other adverse effects, therefore in this study we would be using OAD in the form of Sitagliptin or Dapagliflozin to look for glycemic response as well as to look for other benefits such as weight reduction and improvement in lipid parameters.
The goal of this intervention clinical trial is to learn about the protection of isomaltooligosaccharides (IMO) on intestinal bacterial translocation in patients with liver cirrhosis. The main question is to answer the changes of LPS after adminstration of IMO.
This clinical trial is a Phase 1, multiple administration, dose-escalasion clinical trial of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. The primary objective of this study is to assess the safety of intravenous infusion of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.
Research Objectives- We hypothesized high-dose 25% albumin would be superior to standard medical treatment in improving 3-month mortality in patients with acute decompensation of cirrhosis by improving the systemic hemodynamics and amelioration of systemic inflammation, endothelial function and coagulation. Aim: To study the efficacy of 25% albumin in reducing 3-month mortality in acute decompensation in cirrhosis. Primary Objective • To study the efficacy of 25% albumin in reducing the 3-month mortality. Secondary Objectives - To study the cumulative incidence of liver related complications (paracentesis induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD), AKI, hyponatremia, hepatic encephalopathy and variceal bleed) - Improvement in MELD, CTP, SOFA and AARC scores - Impact on cardiac function and systemic hemodynamics - Impact of albumin on development of SBP and non-SBP infections - Survival free of liver transplant and TIPS at 3 months - Effect of albumin therapy on immunomodulation, dysfunctional albumin, endothelial function and coagulation at 3 months - Proportion of patients achieving recompensation at 3 months - Time to achieve serum albumin >4 g/dL and its correlation with clinical outcomes.
