Can a 'Prehab' program protect the health of selfless liver donors?
NCT ID NCT05431361
Summary
This study tested if a 'prehabilitation' program—involving exercise, nutrition, and stress management before surgery—is a practical and acceptable way to prepare people who are donating part of their liver. The goal is to help donors recover better and maintain their quality of life after this major surgery. The research involved 30 donors to see if a larger future trial would be possible.
