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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This completed trial compared how well primary care doctors detect congenital heart disease in children using either their own listening skills or an AI-assisted stethoscope. The AI analyzes heart sounds in real time and gives an immediate result. The study enrolled 212 children and measured sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of both methods.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
AI-assisted electronic stethoscope
What this could lead to
If successful, this could give primary care doctors a simple, accurate tool to screen for congenital heart disease in children, potentially catching cases earlier.
What could go wrong
The trial is completed but relatively small (212 participants) and was done in specialized hospitals, so results may not apply everywhere. AI may still miss some cases or give false alarms.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

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

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

Ages

Up to 18 years
