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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study compares two supraglottic airway devices — the i-gel and the SaCoVLM — in adults having elective laparoscopic gallbladder removal. Researchers will measure how well each device seals the airway, how easily it is inserted, and any complications. The goal is to see which device provides safer and more effective ventilation during this type of surgery.

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 one device performs better, it could guide anesthesiologists in choosing a safer, more effective airway tool for similar surgeries.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may not apply broadly. Differences between devices may be small or not clinically meaningful.
