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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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 looks at whether the exact position of a feeding tube inside the stomach affects how well patients do after the tube is placed. The tube is inserted through the skin into the stomach for people who cannot eat enough by mouth and need long-term nutrition. Researchers will measure the distance from the tube tip to the pylorus (the stomach outlet) and track complications like bleeding, infection, and feeding tolerance. The goal is to find the best tube position to improve safety and nutrition outcomes.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) feeding tube
What this could lead to
If a specific tube position reduces complications, it could lead to safer, more effective long-term feeding for patients who cannot eat by mouth.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study, so results may not apply to all patients. The ideal tube location may not improve outcomes as hoped.
