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

Summary

This study explores whether a new system using ultrasound and light sensors can remotely monitor brain blood flow in people who have had a stroke. Researchers will test the technology in 140 participants, including healthy older adults and those with stroke, dementia, depression, or delirium. The goal is to see if the method is practical and to gather data for future larger studies.

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 could lead to better ways to monitor brain health at home after a stroke.
What could go wrong
This is an early feasibility study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to direct patient benefits.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
