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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tested a standardized care plan to protect the right side of the heart after a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implant. Twenty adults receiving an LVAD were given either the standardized care or usual care. The goal was to see if the new approach could prevent right heart failure after surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Standardized post-operative management protocol
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could reduce right heart failure after LVAD surgery, helping patients recover more smoothly.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early study with only 20 participants. The results may not apply to all patients, and the protocol may not show clear benefits over usual care.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

Finished

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.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥ 18 years * Undergoing durable LVAD implantation without plan for perioperative right ventricular mechanical circulatory support Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with pre-operative right ventricular mechanical circulatory support or having high likelihood of requiring right ventricular mechanical circulatory support. * Patients with RV implantable cardiac device (ICD)/pacemaker lead who are pacemaker-dependent * Pregnant patients
