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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study looks at whether combining kinesio tape with specific neck exercises can improve how well people with cervical radiculopathy sense their neck position, and whether it also reduces pain and improves function. Sixty adults aged 35-50 with chronic neck pain and nerve symptoms will be enrolled. The approach is non-invasive and focuses on retraining the neck's proprioception.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
kinesio tape and proprioceptive neck exercises
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, non-drug way to improve neck awareness and reduce pain in people with cervical radiculopathy.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants. The results may not apply to everyone, and the benefits could be modest or no better than standard care.
