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 Results may not be published yet.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

Summary

This study tested whether using ultrasound along with fluoroscopy (X-ray) for sacroiliac joint injections reduces procedure time and radiation exposure compared to fluoroscopy alone. The trial involved 38 adults with chronic low back or gluteal pain who had not responded to conservative treatments. Researchers measured how long the injection took and how much radiation patients received.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
sacroiliac joint injection (corticosteroid and local anesthetic)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could make sacroiliac joint injections faster and safer by reducing radiation exposure.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 38 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The study focuses on procedure technique, not long-term pain relief.
