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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 compares simple bedside tests — like measuring air leak pressure — against a fiberoptic camera view to see if they can reliably confirm optimal placement of a supraglottic airway device during general anesthesia. Thirty adults undergoing surgery will be enrolled. If the simple tests prove accurate, they could become a faster, cheaper alternative to camera checks.

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 simple tests prove reliable, they could replace routine fiberoptic checks, saving time and reducing equipment needs during anesthesia.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study in 30 low-risk adults, so results may not apply to all patients or emergency settings. The tests may still miss malposition.
