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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 is testing a new, non-invasive respiratory sensor (pneuRIP) to detect lung problems in 250 children with severe cerebral palsy. The goal is to see if the sensor can screen for issues like pneumonia or airway blockage, and to understand how lung function relates to spine curvature. If it works, this could give doctors a simple tool to catch breathing problems early.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
pneuRIP respiratory sensor
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a simple, non-invasive way to screen for lung problems in children with cerebral palsy, potentially leading to earlier treatment and better outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. The sensor may not prove accurate enough for widespread use, and results may not apply to all children with cerebral palsy.

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.
