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 Results may not be published yet.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

Details not published

Summary

This study investigates how often muscle relaxants used during general anesthesia remain in the body after surgery, a condition called residual neuromuscular blockade. It will follow 160 adults aged 18-90 who are scheduled for post-anesthesia care unit admission after elective surgery. Using a device that measures nerve response, the study aims to see how common this lingering effect is and whether it leads to complications or longer recovery.

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 this study succeeds, it could highlight the need for routine quantitative monitoring to reduce postoperative breathing complications and improve recovery.
What could go wrong
As an observational study, it cannot prove cause and effect. The findings may not apply to all surgical patients, and the incidence could vary with different monitoring techniques.

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

Inclusion Criteria: Patients aged 18-90 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-III who underwent elective surgery under general anesthesia and received a neuromuscular blocking agent were included in the study.
