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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tested whether using lung ultrasound to guide how nurses position ventilated newborns can prevent pneumonia better than standard repositioning every two hours. Researchers enrolled 80 full-term infants on breathing machines. The goal was to see if personalized positioning based on ultrasound images lowers the rate of ventilator-associated pneumonia.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
lung ultrasound-guided posture management
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could reduce pneumonia rates in ventilated newborns, improving outcomes without drugs.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with 80 infants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so impact may be modest.

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Eligible participants included term neonates (gestational age 37-42 weeks) who required invasive mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours. Exclusion Criteria: * Exclusion criteria included ①preterm neonates; ② Neonates with early sepsis or previous pneumonia;③ Not suitable for patients with enteral nutrition;④ Newborns requiring mechanical ventilation due to surgery;⑤ There are many infants with congenital abnormalities or suspected chromosomal abnormalities.
