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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 studying whether the Barostim NEO device, which stimulates a nerve near the carotid artery to lower blood pressure, can help people with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction. The registry follows 11 people who already received the device for resistant hypertension and also have this type of heart failure. The team tracks changes in blood pressure and heart function over six months to see if the device offers any benefit for heart failure.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Barostim NEO device, an implanted device that stimulates the carotid baroreceptor to lower blood pressure
What this could lead to
If the device helps, it could offer a new way to manage heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, a condition with few effective treatments.
What could go wrong
This is a small registry of 11 people, so any findings may not apply broadly. The device is already approved for resistant hypertension, but its effect on heart failure symptoms remains uncertain.
