NCT ID NCT07365098
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how well people who have had a liver transplant can move and function. Researchers will use a 30-second test where patients lie down and sit up as many times as they can. The goal is to see how this test relates to muscle strength, exercise ability, and overall recovery. About 34 adults waiting for or who have had a liver transplant will take part.
