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
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
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 pilot study tested whether continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) could be used in the days before and after surgery to track blood sugar in people with diabetes. Researchers placed a CGM sensor on 22 patients during a preoperative visit and compared its readings to standard finger-stick tests and lab results. The goal was to see if the CGM was accurate and practical for managing glucose around the time of surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Continuous glucose monitor (CGM) device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that CGM devices work well enough to manage blood sugar before, during, and after surgery, possibly improving care.
What could go wrong
This was a very small pilot study (22 people) that was terminated early, so results are limited and may not apply broadly. Accuracy issues or device failures could occur.
