NCT ID NCT07726953

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

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.
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 investigates whether a standardized, full-course management pathway for ECMO can improve outcomes for adults with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The pathway covers everything from deciding when to start ECMO through weaning and follow-up. Researchers will compare outcomes before and after implementing the pathway across multiple hospitals in China, aiming to reduce deaths and complications.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
a standardized full-course ECMO management pathway
What this could lead to
If successful, this could establish a reproducible, evidence-based standard for ECMO care that reduces deaths and complications in ARDS patients.
What could go wrong
This is a before-and-after study, not a randomized trial, so results may be influenced by other changes over time. The pathway may not be easily adopted across all hospitals.

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 500 people

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