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 Results may not be published yet.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
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 will use wearable devices to monitor the heart rate, breathing, and other vital signs of 60 patients before and after their tracheostomy tube is removed. The goal is to see if removing the tube leads to measurable improvements in health. Participants will wear the device at four key times: when they enter the hospital, before using a speaking valve, just before tube removal, and before discharge. The findings could help doctors decide when to safely remove tracheostomy tubes.

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 successful, this study could provide clear evidence that removing a tracheostomy tube improves patients' physiological health, encouraging earlier removal in clinical practice.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early observational study with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. It measures physiological parameters, not long-term outcomes, and the benefits may vary.
