Exercise Intervention and Its Impact on Hospitalization - a Mulitcentered Study

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.
