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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 will compare how well an artificial intelligence (AI) system and experienced anesthesiologists can identify the best injection spot for a nerve block during arm surgery. Researchers will analyze ultrasound images from 100 patients to see if the AI agrees with the doctors. The goal is to explore whether AI could help make nerve blocks more accurate and reliable.

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 successful, this could show that AI can help guide doctors during nerve blocks, potentially making the procedure more consistent and safer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study, not a treatment trial. It only checks if AI agrees with doctors, not if it improves patient outcomes. The AI may not work well in all patients.

Participants

About 100 people

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

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

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

Who is studied

Adult patients aged 18-80 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-III undergoing upper extremity surgery under ultrasound-guided axillary brachial plexus block in routine clinical practice. Only patients with adequate real-time ultrasound imaging of the axillary region allowing identification of relevant anatomical structures will be included.

Ages

18 to 80 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age between 18 and 80 years * American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-III * Patients scheduled for upper extremity surgery under ultrasound-guided axillary brachial plexus block as part of routine clinical practice * Ability to obtain adequate real-time ultrasound imaging of the axillary region prior to block performance * Provision of written informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to clearly visualize the axillary artery and at least one peripheral nerve (median, ulnar, radial, or musculocutaneous) on ultrasound imaging * Presence of significant ultrasound artifacts impairing image interpretation * History of previous surgery in the axillary region causing anatomical distortion * Anatomical deformities or significant anatomical variations in the axillary region * Inadequate ultrasound image quality due to severe obesity or other technical limitations * Failure to obtain real-time ultrasound imaging prior to block performance * Withdrawal of informed consent
