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.

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.

Summary

This trial tests whether a wearable device that vibrates when you slouch can improve posture-related measures in sedentary office workers. Participants aged 25-45 who sit at desks for at least 6 hours a day will either use the device during work hours for 12 weeks or continue their usual routine. Researchers will measure changes in shoulder muscle endurance, body position sense, spine curvature, and posture awareness, comparing the two groups.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Wearable postural feedback device
What this could lead to
If effective, this device could offer a simple, non-drug way to improve posture and reduce discomfort for people who sit at desks all day.
What could go wrong
The trial is relatively small and measures short-term changes; results may not apply to all workers, and the device's benefits could fade once use stops.
