Official title
LiveSMART: A Sequential, Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial to Prevent Falls in Patients With Cirrhosis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This multicenter trial is being conducted to determine if sequential lactulose and Tele (virtual) Tai-Chi reduces the rate of injurious fall, non-injurious falls, incident overt Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE), and death or liver transplant over 24 weeks. Participants that are enrolled will be randomized to stage one of this project for approximately 12 weeks. After completing stage one, participants will be re-randomized to stage 2 of the project that will last approximately 12 more weeks. The study hypothesizes that sequential lactulose/TeleTai-Chi will reduce falls, incident overt HE, death and physical frailty and will improve cognitive function, and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) over 24 weeks compared to other treatment combinations. As detailed below, an observational component that enrolls caregivers of the trial participants is being conducted. Upon completion, Participants listed in the record here only include trial participants; and the observational component was moved to a new registration for clarity, NCT07140120.
