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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This trial tests whether a bedside compression ultrasound performed in the emergency room can diagnose deep vein thrombosis (DVT) faster than the standard formal Doppler scan done in radiology. Researchers will compare how quickly patients with leg swelling suspicious for DVT are moved through the ER when doctors use the bedside method first. The goal is to see if this quicker approach can speed up care without sacrificing accuracy.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
bedside compression ultrasonography (point-of-care ultrasound)
What this could lead to
If faster, bedside ultrasound proves accurate, it could help ER doctors diagnose deep vein thrombosis more quickly, potentially reducing wait times and speeding treatment decisions.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study. Bedside ultrasound may be less accurate than the standard formal Doppler, and results may not apply to all ER settings.
