30-second lie-to-sit functional test for adults listed for liver transplantation

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study records demographic and clinical data and performs several physical function tests, including the 30-second lie-to-sit, 30-second sit-to-stand, and a 2-minute walk, alongside upper and lower extremity functional scales. Muscle strength is measured isometrically with a dynamometer for quadriceps, deltoid, trunk flexors/extensors, and handgrip, and perceived exertion is captured with the Modified Borg Scale. The collected measures will be compared to examine relationships between the lie-to-sit test and other functional and strength metrics. Findings will be used to inform individualized rehabilitation planning for patients awaiting liver transplantation.
