NCT ID NCT05967273
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a computer program called CirrhosisRx that helps doctors follow national guidelines when treating hospitalized patients with cirrhosis. The tool organizes patient data and suggests appropriate orders. Researchers will compare care quality and patient outcomes between hospitals using the tool and those using usual care. About 2,100 adults with cirrhosis are being enrolled.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CirrhosisRx clinical decision support system (a computer tool that organizes patient data and suggests guideline-based orders)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this tool could help doctors provide more consistent, guideline-based care for hospitalized cirrhosis patients, potentially reducing complications and deaths.
- What could go wrong
- This is a pragmatic trial testing a decision-support tool, not a new drug or cure. The tool may not change outcomes if doctors don't use it or if other factors limit its impact.
