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 Results may not be published yet.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.

Summary

This study looks at whether hobbies like video games, sports, chess, or playing instruments help medical students perform videolaryngoscopy—a technique for placing a breathing tube. Researchers will measure how fast and accurately fourth-year medical students complete the procedure. The goal is to understand which activities might improve hand-eye coordination and visual skills needed for this critical task.

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 certain activities improve intubation skills, training programs could incorporate them to help future doctors learn faster.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with medical students, not patients. Results may not apply to real emergencies or experienced doctors.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The primary outcome of our study is the intubation duration. In a previous study, the mean (standard deviation) of intubation time was reported as 90 (45.5) seconds for individuals who played video games and 127.6 (39.5) seconds for those who did not. Considering a two-sided Type I error of 0.05 (95% confidence level), a sample size of 35 participants per group was determined to be sufficient. To account for potential exclusions and dropouts, we plan to include 50 participants in each group, resulting in a total of 100 participants in the study.
