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 Results may not be published yet.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

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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 looks at whether low-volume high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on a recumbent stepper is safe and doable for people recovering from a stroke in a hospital rehab setting. Fifteen participants will try a 10-minute HIIT session, and researchers will track any side effects, how well they stick with it, and whether they enjoy it. The goal is to see if this type of exercise can be a practical part of inpatient stroke rehab.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Low-volume high-intensity interval training on a total body recumbent stepper
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that short bursts of intense exercise are safe and doable for stroke patients during rehab, potentially improving recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early-phase study with only 15 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. It focuses on safety and feasibility, not on proving any health benefits.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * -Both sexes between the age of 18-85 years at time of consent * Ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke at consent. People with stroke and newly diagnosed cardiovascular complications had \>50% prevalence of recurrent stroke at 5 years. Index stroke or recurrent stroke on same side as index stroke will be allowed. * Exercise continuously for minimum of 30 watts for 3 minutes on the recumbent stepper to demonstrate ability to perform the exercise test or therapist confirmation/documentation of participant's ability to use the recumbent stepper. * No aerobic exercise contraindications or other safety/physical concerns during the submaximal exercise test determined by the therapy team or inpatient physicians. * Able to communicate with investigators, follow 2-step command \& correctly answer consent comprehension questions Exclusion Criteria: * Implanted pacemaker or defibrillator limiting exercise performance * Reported pain that limits or interferes with activities of daily living and physical activity/exercise * Acute Myocardial Infarction in the last 2 days * Ongoing unstable Angina * Active Endocarditis * Symptomatic Severe Aortic Stenosis * Decompensated Heart Failure * Acute Pulmonary Embolism, Pulmonary Insufficiency, or Deep Veinous Thrombosis * Acute Myocarditis or Pericarditis * Other significant neurologic, orthopedic, or peripheral vascular conditions that would limit exercise participation * Oxygen-dependent chronic obstructive pulmonary disease * Neurological disease (Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease) * Pregnancy
