- NCT05782244RecruitingPhase 2
Sildenafil trial for long-term brain blood-flow problems after TBI
This Phase 2 study tests whether sildenafil (a medication better known for erectile function) can improve long-term symptoms and brain blood-flow issues after a past traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help by improving blood vessel function in the brain and possibly reducing persistent post-concussion symptoms.

Text-and-phone support after concussion for teens
This study tests whether a phone-based (mHealth) handoff and follow-up can help teens after a concussion, especially those at higher risk of long-lasting symptoms. It uses smartphone check-ins and coordination between emergency and specialty care.

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.

What taking part in a brain injuries study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
