The Impact of Liver Cirrhosis on Outcomes in Trauma Patients
NCT05170854 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Given that there are only a few studies on the effects of cirrhosis on trauma patients and none have addressed the impact cirrhosis has on the incidence of infections, it is important that we study this to determine the mortality in cirrhotic trauma patients and ascertain the incidence of infectious complications in these patients. We hypothesize that trauma patients with cirrhosis will have higher rates of mortality and infectious complications.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT05170854
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT05170854 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 4,774,035 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Methodist Health System, which has 72 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Cirrhosis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 0 interventions. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT05170854 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Texas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
