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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 explores whether a thermal imaging camera can detect changes in blood flow to the legs after a procedure to reopen blocked arteries. Researchers will compare temperature readings from the camera with standard ankle-brachial index measurements in 25 people with severe peripheral artery disease. If successful, this could lead to a faster, painless way to evaluate treatment success.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
FLIR One Pro LT thermal imaging camera
What this could lead to
If thermal imaging proves reliable, it could offer a quick, non-invasive way to assess blood flow in leg arteries without needles or contrast dye.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study with only 25 participants. The camera may not be accurate enough to replace standard tests, and results may not apply to all patients.
