Can a smartwatch and app keep liver patients out of the hospital?

This study tests whether a telemedicine program using a smartphone app and a smartwatch can help people with advanced liver disease (decompensated cirrhosis) avoid hospital stays and emergency room visits. About 120 adults with this condition will either receive standard care or the digital program, which includes remote monitoring and regular check-ins from a care team. The goal is to see if this approach lowers medical costs and improves quality of life.
