NCT06184919 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The researchers will conduct observations, interviews, and focus groups with clinicians, staff and patients of the Perioperative Optimization of Senior Health (POSH) clinic, which conducts preoperative comprehensive geriatric assessments (pCGA) at UW Health to understand clinic processes and potential areas for improvement. The goal is to (1) create a process map describing clinic workflow and (2) redesign the process with healthcare providers and patients/families.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06184919
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06184919 describes a study currently listed as active not recruiting. It is categorized as an unspecified phase, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 50 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Wisconsin, Madison, which has 943 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 4 conditions, with Aging appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 4 interventions — of which Process Mapping: Observations is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06184919 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Wisconsin. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
