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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tests two methods used during emergency heart attack treatment: ischemic postconditioning (briefly pausing blood flow after opening the artery) and ultrasound-guided stent placement. The goal is to see if these techniques reduce death, heart failure, or the need for another procedure. The study involves 2,500 adults having a specific type of heart attack (STEMI) and compares these approaches to standard care.

Participants

About 2,500 people

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

Started

Expected to finish

Feb 2031

An estimate. End dates often move.
