Summary

This study tests a transitional care program for 20 adults with cirrhosis and fluid overload (swelling) after they leave the hospital. Participants get a digital scale, educational materials, weekly check-in calls, and a follow-up appointment. Researchers want to see if this program reduces hospital readmissions, kidney injury, and fluid problems compared to standard care.
