New study aims to predict bleeding in liver patients during routine procedures
NCT ID NCT07405749
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will follow 2,500 patients with liver cirrhosis or portal hypertension who are scheduled for elective medical procedures. Researchers want to find out how often bleeding happens and what factors predict it, beyond standard blood tests. The goal is to improve safety by focusing on procedure type and patient condition rather than just lab numbers.
