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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study asks whether emergency physicians' non-technical skills—like leadership, communication, and decision-making—are impaired 24 hours after a night shift. Researchers will compare doctors' performance in simulated critical situations at two times: once after a night shift and once after a period without night shifts. The goal is to understand if sleep deprivation affects how well doctors manage crisis situations, which could inform safer work schedules.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Simulation-based assessment of emergency physicians' performance
What this could lead to
If performance drops after a night shift, it could inform scheduling to improve patient safety and doctor well-being.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center study with 40 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Also, simulation may not fully capture real-world performance.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

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 40 people

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

Started

Expected to finish

Jan 2028

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 100 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.
