NCT ID NCT07761832

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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This observational study looks at whether a fast drop in hemoglobin during the first 24 hours in the ICU can predict a longer stay (8 days or more) or death in the hospital. Researchers will review medical records of about 128 critically ill adults, comparing their hemoglobin levels at admission and roughly a day later. No extra tests or treatments are given—only routine data is analyzed. If the link holds, this simple trend could help identify high-risk patients earlier.

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 early hemoglobin decline reliably predicts worse outcomes, doctors could flag high-risk ICU patients sooner and tailor monitoring or transfusions to improve care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, so it can show links but not prove cause. Results may not apply to all ICU patients, and the 128-person sample is relatively small.
