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.

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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This study is testing whether giving the blood thinner heparin before inserting a tube into the wrist artery can prevent a common complication: blockage of that artery. About 550 people undergoing a heart procedure through the wrist will be randomly assigned to receive heparin either before or after the tube is placed. The main goal is to see which timing reduces the risk of artery blockage the next day.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
heparin
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a simple change in practice that lowers the risk of radial artery blockage after heart procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage study. The timing change may not reduce blockage rates, and there is always a risk of bleeding with heparin.
