Recruiting studies
- NCT07767708Recruiting
New MRI scan to see nerve damage from birth-related arm injury
This study is testing a new MRI technique to better see nerve damage in people with a birth-related arm injury. It could help doctors understand these injuries more clearly and guide treatment.
ParisAges 14–30 - NCT07699744RecruitingPhase 4
Steroid injection study for pain after shoulder surgery
This trial tests if adding a steroid (dexamethasone) to a nerve block shot can reduce the severe pain that often returns after shoulder surgery. You will receive either a single injection or a continuous flow of pain medicine through a small tube.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 19–79 - NCT07654504Recruiting
Turkish questionnaire study for brachial plexus birth palsy
This study tests a Turkish version of a questionnaire about how brachial plexus birth palsy (a nerve injury at birth affecting arm movement) impacts daily life. It may help people understand and communicate their symptoms better.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07291310Enrolling by invitation
Virtual reality therapy for children with brachial plexus injury
This trial tests if playing virtual reality games while doing dual tasks can help the brain rewire and improve arm function in children with a brachial plexus injury. It could offer a fun and engaging new approach to rehabilitation.
Istanbul, CevizlibağAges 7–14 - NCT07134049Recruiting
Sensory therapy for kids with brachial plexus injury
This study tests whether sensory integration therapy helps young children with a brachial plexus injury (nerve damage in the arm from birth) improve their development. It may be a good option for children who have not had other therapies recently and do not have other major health issues.
AnkaraAges 7 months–2.9 years - NCT06623357Recruiting
Caregiver training for babies with brachial plexus birth injury
This study tests a training program for parents of infants with brachial plexus birth injury (a nerve injury around the shoulder that can limit arm movement). The program aims to help caregivers learn exercises to improve their baby's arm function.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04933149Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Ketamine infusion for nerve pain after shoulder nerve injuries
This trial tests whether a ketamine infusion can reduce nerve-related pain after traumatic brachial plexus (shoulder/arm nerve) injuries. It specifically targets people with pain caused by nerve damage who are scheduled for surgery to repair the nerve.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04733599Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for long-term arm nerve pain
This trial tests whether a high-frequency spinal cord stimulator can reduce long-term nerve pain in the arm after a brachial plexus injury. It may help people whose pain has lasted at least 3 months despite standard treatments.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT01894802Recruiting
Brain recording and stimulation to help control a computer
This study tests a brain-machine interface that records brain activity and uses stimulation to help people with severe hand/arm movement loss communicate or control tasks using a computer. It may help restore some control and reduce dependence on hands that cannot be used normally.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 22–70 - NCT07665762RecruitingPhase 3
Numbing medicine for arm surgery pain prevention
This trial compares two additives to standard numbing medicine given before wrist fracture surgery to see which better prevents severe pain. You may qualify if you have risk factors for hard-to-control pain after surgery.
Hong KongAges 18–90 - NCT04209504Recruiting
Nerve block study for one-sided breathing muscle weakness after shoulder surgery
This trial tests whether a longer-lasting nerve block during shoulder surgery can better manage pain and affect one-sided diaphragm (breathing muscle) weakness. It may help people having planned (first-time) shoulder surgery who are able to follow study pain-checks.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT07474909Recruiting
Comparing two ways to give dexamethasone for hand surgery in children
This trial compares giving dexamethasone near the nerves versus through an IV to see which works better for pain relief during hand or forearm surgery in children. It may help your child have a smoother recovery.
PoznanAges 3 months–16 years - NCT07792044Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief after shoulder surgery
This study tests a numbing medicine injected near the shoulder to see if it gives better pain relief after arthroscopic shoulder surgery than the standard approach. It might help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
Jiaxing, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06972680Enrolling by invitation
Finding the best dose for a shoulder block before surgery
This trial tests different volumes of a long-lasting numbing medicine (Exparel) injected around the shoulder nerves before arthroscopic surgery. The goal is to find the dose that provides the best pain relief.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brachial plexus injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 14 recruiting brachial plexus injury studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a brachial plexus injury trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a brachial plexus injury trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
