NCT ID NCT06342557
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is creating a digital tool to help teenagers and young adults (ages 14-20) who have had or are waiting for a liver transplant as they move from pediatric to adult care. The tool helps patients and doctors track medication use and well-being from home, reducing hospital visits. Researchers will also look at past medical records to understand what helps or hurts a patient's mental health during this transition.
