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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study tested whether giving 50% or 100% oxygen before removing a breathing tube after anesthesia leads to fewer drops in oxygen levels. 119 patients were monitored after surgery. The goal is to find the safest oxygen setting to prevent breathing problems during recovery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
oxygen
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help standardize safer oxygen levels during anesthesia recovery, reducing breathing complications.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with 119 patients, so results may not apply to all surgeries or patient types. The difference between oxygen levels may be small.
