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 Results may not be published yet.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.
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 pilot study aims to understand what happens in the muscles during the Scratch Collapse Test, a simple exam used to detect nerve compression in carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will use a technique called myography to measure muscle activity in 25 patients with unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. The goal is to see if the test causes a temporary loss of muscle strength on the affected side, which could help explain how the test works.

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 successful, this study could provide a better understanding of how the Scratch Collapse Test works, potentially improving diagnosis of nerve compression.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 25 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It is exploratory and does not test a treatment.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts
