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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tracks stress levels in interventional cardiology fellows and attending physicians using wearable devices and questionnaires. Researchers measure heart rate variability and self-reported stress before, during, and after procedures to see how stress changes with experience. The goal is to understand how these doctors cope with high-pressure work and recover afterward.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Wearable devices and stress assessments
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward ways to reduce stress and burnout among interventional cardiologists.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and observational, so results may not apply to all cardiologists. Wearable data may not fully capture stress.
