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 Results may not be published yet.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

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks back at the medical records of 183 newborns who had surgery while in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Researchers want to see if factors before surgery, such as birth weight, gestational age, or need for breathing support, are linked to how long babies need a breathing tube after surgery. They will also check if longer breathing support is tied to longer hospital stays, feeding issues, complications, or death. No new treatments are given; the study only reviews existing data to find patterns that could improve care.

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 patterns emerge, this could help doctors predict which newborns need longer breathing support after surgery, guiding earlier and more tailored care.
What could go wrong
This is a retrospective review of medical records, so it can show links but not prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all newborns or hospitals.
