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

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 Results may not be published yet.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 tests whether a brief exercise called 'relational savoring'—recalling a time you helped someone and felt deep positive emotion—can improve heart health and well-being in community service providers (CSPs) who support underserved Hispanic/Latinx communities. These workers face high stress and heart disease risk, yet few programs focus on their own health. The study will measure heart rate variability, sleep, diet, burnout, and community outreach to see if this simple practice helps both the workers and the people they serve.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Relational Savoring Intervention (a brief behavioral exercise recalling moments of supporting others to boost positive emotion and stress regulation)
What this could lead to
If it works, this brief exercise could offer a simple way to improve heart health and reduce burnout among community health workers, potentially helping them better serve their communities.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study, and the intervention is brief. Results may not apply broadly, and measuring heart health proved challenging, with some data collection stopped early.
