Simple home workout guides boost energy and cut caregiver strain after liver transplant
NCT ID NCT07417423
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether giving liver transplant patients simple exercise guides—either a brochure or a video—could help them be more active, feel less tired, and reduce the burden on their caregivers. Over 100 adults who had a liver transplant were split into three groups: one got a brochure, one got a video, and one got standard care. The goal was to see if these easy-to-follow home programs could improve daily life after transplant.
