Prehab and Creatine/Whey Supplementation in Frailty Among Patients With Cirrhosis (NCT07029243)
Physical Prehabilitation With and Without Creatine/Whey Protein Supplementation Effects on Frailty In Patients With Cirrhosis
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Frailty and muscle health are important for patients with chronic liver disease. This study looks at the use of a digital prehabilitation app (HEAL-ME) plus creatine and whey protein combination supplementation on maintaining muscle health in patients with liver disease. The investigators anticipate that this combination of supplementation and nutrition/exercise prehabilitation app will maintain muscle health in patients with liver disease.
