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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tests a new device called NEURESCUE, a balloon catheter inserted into the leg artery that inflates to redirect blood to the heart and brain during cardiac arrest. Researchers will compare standard CPR plus the device against CPR alone in 84 adults with witnessed cardiac arrest and non-shockable heart rhythms. The goal is to see if the device helps restore a shockable rhythm or return of spontaneous circulation safely.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
NEURESCUE catheter (aortic balloon occlusion device)
What this could lead to
If it works, this device could help more people survive cardiac arrest by quickly redirecting blood to the heart and brain during CPR.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-stage trial (84 people) testing safety and feasibility. The device is invasive and may cause complications like vessel damage or bleeding. Success in this study does not guarantee broader effectiveness.
