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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 early trial tests a new wearable PAP mask system for people with obstructive sleep apnea. Fifteen participants will use the device for up to 7 nights to rate its comfort, seal, and usability. The goal is to improve the user experience, not to measure treatment effectiveness.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) device with a wearable mask system
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a more comfortable and user-friendly PAP mask for sleep apnea patients.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early trial with only 15 participants, all of whom are ResMed employees. It only tests comfort and usability, not whether the device effectively treats sleep apnea.
