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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 trial tests whether adding Therapeutic Listening, a music-based auditory therapy, to a standard exercise program improves balance, trunk control, and reaction time in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Sixty children will receive either exercise alone or exercise plus Therapeutic Listening through headphones over 8 weeks. Researchers will compare changes in balance and reaction time between the two groups to see if the music therapy offers extra benefits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Therapeutic Listening, an auditory intervention using electronically modified music tracks delivered through headphones during exercise sessions
What this could lead to
If it works, adding Therapeutic Listening to standard physiotherapy could improve balance, trunk control, and reaction time in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy, enhancing their daily mobility and independence.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with 60 children, so results may not apply broadly. The therapy may not provide extra benefit beyond exercise alone, and children with hearing issues are excluded, limiting who can use it.
