ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how kidney health is affected in patients who have liver cirrhosis, a serious liver disease. The researchers want to understand how common kidney problems are in these patients and what happens to them in the short term after they are diagnosed. The study is not yet recruiting participants, but it aims to include patients with liver cirrhosis who are admitted to the hospital.

To be part of the trial, patients must have liver cirrhosis but should not have any existing chronic kidney disease beforehand. This means that if someone has had kidney problems for a while, they would not be eligible to join. Participants can expect to undergo tests and evaluations to help the researchers gather information about their kidney function and overall health during their hospital stay. This study is important because it could help improve care for patients with liver cirrhosis by understanding how their kidneys are affected.
