Official title
Single-center Randomized Controlled Trial to Evaluate Body Composition Changes and Clinical Outcomes After Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (TIPS) Creation in Patients With Cirrhosis and Complications of Portal Hypertension Awaiting Liver Transplantation
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to prospectively assess the impact of TIPS creation on muscle mass and physical function in patients with cirrhosis, and to determine whether these changes correlate with improved outcomes in patients awaiting liver transplantation. Retrospective observational studies have shown improvement in muscle mass and body composition in cirrhotic patients undergoing TIPS. The investigators aim to now prospectively study this through a pilot randomized controlled trial tracking patients managed with TIPS creation compared to those managed without TIPS to determine whether these observational findings can be seen in a randomized cohort. The investigators hypothesize that TIPS creation will lead to improved muscle mass, body composition and muscle function within the first 12 months after the procedure compared to a control group without TIPS, and that these changes will improve liver disease outcomes in patients awaiting liver transplantation.
