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.

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 explores whether monitoring bowel sounds can help predict which patients with acute pancreatitis will develop a severe form of the disease. Researchers will enroll 352 adults across three hospitals and track their bowel sounds for at least 48 hours. The goal is to see if changes in bowel activity can serve as an early warning sign, allowing doctors to intervene sooner.

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 provide doctors with a simple, non-invasive tool to quickly identify which acute pancreatitis patients are at risk of becoming severely ill.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. The bowel sound method may not prove accurate enough to replace current scoring systems, and results may not apply to all patients.
