What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

Summary

This study asks whether Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises—a method that targets deep core muscles—work as well when delivered via online video sessions as they do face-to-face. Healthy adults aged 18 to 35 will be randomly assigned to either in-person or telerehabilitation groups, both following the same 6-week program. Researchers will measure breathing, balance, posture, and core endurance before and after the program to see if the remote format delivers comparable benefits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) exercises delivered via telerehabilitation
What this could lead to
If effective, telerehabilitation could offer a convenient, accessible way to improve core stability and physical function without in-person visits.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study in healthy adults, so results may not apply to people with health conditions. The success of telerehab depends on reliable internet and participant adherence.
