Peritoneal Effusion clinical trials at UCSF
2 in progress, 1 open to eligible people
Peritoneal effusion is the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity. UCSF is investigating whether monitoring blood pressure at home can aid in the treatment of decompensated cirrhosis. This involves patients using home blood pressure monitors.
Test the Feasibility of Utilizing Home Blood Pressure Monitoring to Optimize the Administration of Midodrine Among Decompensated Cirrhosis Patients
open to eligible people ages 18 years and up
This is a randomized single-blind feasibility trial to test the utilization of home blood pressure devices to improve the clinical management of decompensated cirrhosis patients.

Clinical Information and Biospecimen Collection from Patients with Recurrent or Stage IV Breast Cancer
Sorry, currently not accepting new patients, but might later
This trial collects clinical information and tissue and blood samples from patients with breast cancer that has come back or is stage IV. Collecting clinical information and biospecimen samples to create a registry may help doctors better understand the mechanism of tumor spread and determine why people respond differently to specific cancer treatments.
