NCT ID NCT05636332

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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

Researchers are testing a software update for the Philips HeartStart Intrepid monitor, a device that records 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs) to check heart rhythms. The study enrolls people from 29 days to 89 years old who are willing to have ECG tracings taken. The goal is to see whether the updated software can reliably capture diagnostic-quality 12-lead ECG readings and whether any unexpected device effects occur.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
12-lead electrocardiogram monitoring with the Philips HeartStart Intrepid monitor/defibrillator
What this could lead to
If the software update works as intended, the monitor could deliver clearer 12-lead ECG readings, which may help clinicians assess heart rhythms more reliably.
What could go wrong
This is a small validation study of a device software update, not a treatment trial. The software may fail to produce diagnostic-quality tracings in some participants, and the study does not test whether better tracings improve patient outcomes.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

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.

Lead sponsor

A company

The lead sponsor is a pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical-device company.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

29 days to 89 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.
