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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published

Summary

This study looked at whether heart rate variability (HRV) — a measure of how your heart rate changes — can predict nausea and vomiting after gallbladder surgery. Researchers monitored 110 women before and after surgery using a chest strap. The goal is to see if HRV can help doctors identify who is more likely to feel sick after anesthesia, so they can offer better prevention.

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 simple, non-invasive way to predict which patients are at higher risk for post-surgery nausea and vomiting, allowing for better preventive care.
What could go wrong
This is a small, observational study (110 participants) that only looks for a link, not a treatment. Results may not apply to men or other surgeries, and the predictive value of HRV may be too weak to be clinically useful.
