Exercise Intervention - and Impact on Hospitalization

Stopped early · Not applicable · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Sarcopenia, Debility Due to Disease

In brief

Skeletal muscle abnormalities (sarcopenia) and frailty are common complications seen in patients with end-stage liver disease. The presence of these complications portends poor prognosis. The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of a formal home based video strengthening program (REST) on sarcopenia and frailty. We also want to assess the impact of this exercise program on complication rates, hospitalization, on quality of life (QOL) and on survival.
