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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 whether training the breathing muscles (using a PowerBreathe device) on land or in water can improve swimming performance in 30 competitive swimmers aged 13-18. Participants train 5 days a week for 4 weeks, and researchers measure lung function, stroke rate, and 100m/200m swim times. The goal is to see if water-based training better mimics real swimming demands.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
PowerBreathe device for inspiratory muscle training
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that water-based breathing training improves swim performance more than land-based training.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all swimmers. The training is short (4 weeks), and benefits may be modest.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 30 people

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

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Young competitive swimmers aged between 13 and 18 years. Regular participation in swimming training for at least 2 years. Participation in routine training consisting of approximately 20 hours/week of pool training and 8 hours/week of land training. Being medically fit to participate in swimming training and inspiratory muscle training. \- Exclusion Criteria: Presence of any acute or chronic respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, or musculoskeletal disorder that may affect exercise performance or respiratory function. Current upper or lower respiratory tract infection at the time of assessment or intervention. Use of medication that may affect respiratory or exercise performance.
