NCT ID NCT07289100

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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 study is testing whether wearable sensors that track things like heart rate and breathing can detect changes during a chest infection in adults with cystic fibrosis or bronchiectasis. Researchers will monitor 50 patients who are starting intravenous antibiotics for a lung infection. The goal is to see if sensor data changes between the start and end of treatment, which could help develop early warning systems for future infections.

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 could lead to a way to catch chest infections earlier using simple wearable sensors, potentially reducing hospital stays.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study (50 people) that only measures changes during treatment. It does not test any new treatment or device for home use yet.
