NCT ID NCT05060302

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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tested whether a new heart ultrasound measurement can predict serious heart complications after chest surgery. Researchers followed 191 adults who had lung surgery and performed heart ultrasounds before surgery, two days after, and fifteen days after. They tracked whether patients had heart problems like irregular heartbeat or heart failure within 30 days of surgery.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a better way to predict heart complications after chest surgery, helping doctors identify high-risk patients earlier.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center pilot study, so results may not apply to all patients. The new measurement technique is still being tested and may not prove to be better than existing methods.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.
