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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

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

Summary

This study tests a new way to place an emergency IV line through the umbilical cord in newborns who need urgent resuscitation. The procedure aims to deliver adrenaline faster than the standard method. Researchers will enroll 26 full-term babies to see if the new technique can restore a normal heart rate within 90 seconds.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
umbilical vein catheterization through Wharton's jelly procedure
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a quicker, more reliable emergency access for life-saving drugs in newborns, potentially improving resuscitation outcomes.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 26 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The procedure may fail or take longer than expected, and standard care will be used as backup.
