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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 tested whether adding stabilization exercises to standard physical therapy helps people recover better after cervical laminoplasty surgery. Thirty-two patients were split into two groups: one did standard exercises, the other added stabilization moves using a pressure biofeedback device, resistance bands, and a ball. Researchers measured pain, movement, balance, and muscle endurance at 6 weeks after surgery.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Stabilization exercise program (including deep neck flexor training with biofeedback, elastic resistance bands, and elastic ball exercises)
What this could lead to
If this approach works, it could lead to a more effective rehabilitation program that improves recovery after cervical spine surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 32 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The exercises are an add-on to standard care, and benefits may be modest.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
