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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tests whether a clear plastic box placed over a patient's head during CPR can reduce the spread of viruses like COVID-19 to healthcare workers. Researchers will simulate cardiac arrest scenarios with 240 participants, measuring how well the box works during chest compressions and airway procedures. The goal is to improve safety for medical staff during outbreaks.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
aerosol box (a clear plastic shield over the patient's head)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to safer CPR practices for healthcare workers during outbreaks of airborne diseases like COVID-19.
What could go wrong
This is a simulation study with 240 participants, not a real-world trial. Results may not translate to actual emergency settings, and the box might not reduce infection risk as hoped.
