Summary
This study looked at whether using home monitoring devices and a liver care coordinator could help people with cirrhosis stay out of the hospital. It compared this approach to standard care for 120 patients. The study was stopped early, so results are limited, but the goal was to reduce 30-day readmissions and emergency visits.
