NCT ID NCT06575101

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 looks at how therapeutic cooling after cardiac arrest affects the body's energy expenditure and which nutrients (sugars, fats, proteins) are burned for fuel. About 40 unconscious patients will be cooled to either 33°C or 36°C and given a fixed nutrition plan. Researchers will measure energy use at several time points during cooling and rewarming, and track neurological recovery at 28 days. The goal is to understand how cooling changes metabolism, which could help guide nutrition care for these patients.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Target temperature management (cooling to 33°C or 36°C)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors tailor nutrition for unconscious cardiac arrest patients during cooling, potentially improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, observational study, so it cannot prove cause and effect. Results may not apply to all patients, and measuring energy use in critically ill patients is challenging.
