Effectiveness Analysis of a Rehabilitation Exercise Platform for Living Donor Liver Transplantation Patients
South Korea36 participantsStarted 2026-03-26
Plain-language summary
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a digital rehabilitation exercise platform in patients undergoing living donor liver transplantation. A total of 36 adult patients who require ongoing rehabilitation after living donor liver transplantation will be recruited and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group will receive a personalized exercise program delivered through a digital rehabilitation platform in addition to standard exercise education, whereas the control group will receive standard exercise education only. Physical function, body composition, quality of life, and physical activity will be assessed before surgery, at discharge, at 1 month after discharge, and at 3 months after discharge to determine whether the digital rehabilitation platform improves recovery-related outcomes during the post-transplant period.

* Patients who have difficulty using digital devices or cannot independently use digital-based services
* Patients with severe limitations in muscle strength or range of motion, or amputation-related disability, making the exercise program difficult to perform
* Patients who require restriction of movement necessary for the rehabilitation exercise program due to fracture or musculoskeletal instability
* Patients with pain during upper or lower extremity movement and biomechanical instability that makes participation difficult
* Patients with visual or hearing impairment that interferes with cooperation in the rehabilitation exercise program
* Patients who develop medical complications or transplant rejection during study participation
