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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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 tests whether a feeding tube placed in the upper esophagus (oro-esophageal) helps stroke patients with swallowing difficulties recover faster than the standard nasogastric tube (through the nose). The trial will include 422 adults who recently had a first ischemic stroke and need tube feeding. Researchers will measure improvements in swallowing function and check if the new method is as safe as the standard one.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Oro-esophageal feeding tube
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a faster and safer way to feed stroke patients with swallowing difficulties, helping them recover swallowing function more quickly.
What could go wrong
This is a single study with 422 participants, and the intervention is a feeding method, not a drug. Results may not apply to all stroke patients, and there is a risk of complications like tube misplacement or infection.
