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 Results may not be published yet.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 looks at whether a new monitoring system can track the health of extremely low birth weight babies after their breathing tube is removed. The system combines standard vital signs with special sensors that measure oxygen levels in the brain and gut, and lung ventilation. Researchers will enroll 20 babies to see if parents and staff find the system acceptable and if it can be used in practice.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better monitoring tools to help doctors decide when to remove breathing tubes in tiny babies, potentially reducing complications.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 20 infants, so results may not apply broadly. The monitoring devices are not treatments and may not improve outcomes.
