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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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

This study looks at whether doing resistance training on just one leg, while using a blood flow restriction cuff, can also improve strength in the untrained leg—a phenomenon called cross-education. Researchers will enroll 32 older women and measure muscle strength, size, and function over time. The goal is to find a gentle, effective exercise option for seniors who cannot handle heavy weights.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Blood Flow Restriction Cuff
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a safe, low-cost exercise method for older adults to maintain leg strength and mobility without heavy weights.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 32 participants. The results may not apply to all older adults, and the training may not produce meaningful strength gains.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 32 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Aug 2025

Expected to finish

Aug 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

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.

Who can take part

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

Ages

60 years and older

Sex

Female participants only

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Elderly women who present one or more of the following characteristics will not be included: 1. a history of stroke, progressive neurological disease, or dementia; 2. communication difficulties due to aphasia or hearing loss; 3. any health condition that contraindicates or prevents physical exercise; 4. a history of hip or knee surgery (e.g., arthroscopy or arthroplasty) or recent lower limb musculoskeletal injury that could impair performance during tests or training (e.g., osteoarthritis, osteoporotic fracture, muscle injury, and/or back pain in the past six months); 5. use of supplements aimed at improving physical performance and/or muscle mass; or 6. one or more predisposing risk factors for thromboembolism. Exclusion Criteria: Participants will be excluded from the study if they use medications (analgesics or anti-inflammatory drugs) or other therapeutic interventions that could interfere with any outcomes, or if they sustain an injury resulting from the training and choose to withdraw from the study.
