This study tests whether a digital rehabilitation platform can help people recover after a living donor liver transplant. 36 adults will be split into two groups: one gets a personalized exercise program on a digital platform plus standard education, the other gets standard educa…

This study gives continued access to a device that preserves donated livers before transplant. It includes 120 adults on the transplant waiting list. The goal is to collect safety data and check for early signs of liver problems after surgery.

This study tests whether giving methadone and ketamine during a deceased donor liver transplant can lower pain and confusion after surgery. About 50 adults will receive either the drug combo or standard care. Researchers will track pain scores, opioid use, and delirium during rec…

This study compares two methods for monitoring brain blood flow during liver transplant surgery: a standard but expensive and technically difficult device versus a simpler, cheaper ultrasound. Researchers aim to see if the ultrasound can provide equally good information without n…

This study tracks 1,500 liver transplant patients to see if a new blood test called LiverCare can detect complications like organ rejection earlier and more accurately than current methods. Participants will provide blood samples at regular visits over several years. The goal is …

This study follows 600 adult liver transplant recipients in Denmark for up to 10 years to understand why many develop heart, lung, kidney, or metabolic problems after transplant. Researchers will use scans, blood tests, and lung function tests to find risk factors. The goal is to…
