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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 explores whether measuring the natural variability in a person's breathing can help predict complications after lung surgery. Researchers will use a sensor belt to continuously monitor chest movements in patients undergoing lung resection, both before anesthesia and after they wake up. The goal is to see if a marker of 'good respiratory health' could signal early signs of trouble, potentially improving post-operative care.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Respiratory variability monitoring using a belt with an external sensor that continuously analyzes chest movement
What this could lead to
If breathing variability proves to be a reliable marker, it could help identify patients at higher risk of post-operative respiratory complications, enabling earlier and more targeted care.
What could go wrong
This is a small exploratory study, so the findings may not be conclusive. The marker might not reliably predict complications, and further research would be needed.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 60 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.
