Die erfolgreich durchgeführte Studie lieferte wichtige Erkenntnisse.
The successfully carried-out study provided important findings.
'Durchgeführt' is the Partizip II (past participle) of the separable verb 'durchführen' (to carry out). With separable verbs, the participle prefix 'ge-' is inserted between the verb prefix and the verb stem: durch-ge-führt.
Die Polizei hat gestern eine Kontrolle durchgeführt.
The police carried out an inspection yesterday.
This word can have two roles in a sentence. It can stand as an adjective before a noun and is then declined. It can also be used as part of the verb in the perfect tense with 'haben' (to have) or in the passive with 'werden' (to become/be).

'durchgeführt' and 'abgeschlossen' can both be used to talk about tasks, projects, or measures. 'durchgeführt' emphasizes that an action was actually carried out or a plan was implemented. 'abgeschlossen' emphasizes that something is finished and no longer ongoing. The words can be confused because a measure that has been carried out can often also be completed. But that is not always the same thing: an investigation may have been carried out, while the evaluation is not yet completed.
Die Prüfung wurde gestern in allen Klassen durchgeführt.
