What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
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
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 Results may not be published yet.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 a Schroth-based three-dimensional exercise program in 52 adults aged 20–50 with postural hyperkyphosis (excessive rounding of the upper back) and chronic neck pain. Participants will receive electrotherapy followed by specific corrective exercises in different positions. Researchers will measure changes in kyphosis angle, trunk muscle strength, balance, pain, and quality of life.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Schroth-based three-dimensional exercise program
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a standardized exercise protocol to improve posture, reduce neck pain, and enhance quality of life for people with postural hyperkyphosis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 52 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercises require active participation and may not work for all individuals.
