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 Results may not be published yet.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

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tests whether a structured training program for ICU staff improves how often breathing tubes are placed successfully on the first try and reduces major complications, such as severe drops in blood pressure or oxygen levels, cardiac arrest, or death. Researchers will track about 1,300 critically ill adults in intensive care units across Spain who need a breathing tube. They will compare outcomes before and after the training, and also against earlier data from a prior study, to see if the program makes a measurable difference.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
structured educational intervention on airway management
What this could lead to
If effective, this training program could reduce serious complications during ICU intubations and improve patient safety across many hospitals.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a randomized trial, so results may be influenced by other factors. The training may not lead to lasting improvements in real-world practice.
