What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study compares three devices that measure how well blood clots — ClotPro, ROTEM, and TEG — in patients undergoing liver surgery, neurosurgery, or cesarean section. The goal is to see how closely the results from these devices agree with each other. The findings may help doctors choose the best tool for personalized bleeding management, but the test results will not be used to guide treatment during this study.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help identify which device provides the most accurate and reliable blood-clotting information, potentially improving bleeding management in high-risk surgeries and childbirth.
What could go wrong
This is an observational comparison study, not a treatment trial. The results may not directly change patient care, and the devices may show similar performance, limiting the impact.
