Prebiotic treatment for brain injury recovery
This study tests whether a prebiotic (a type of fiber that feeds healthy gut bacteria) can improve recovery from a brain injury by helping the connection between the gut and the brain. Participants include people with a recent brain injury and their family members or staff, all of whom are part of the Moody Neurorehabilitation Institute community.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07131475RecruitingPhase 2
Brain injury detection in Navy SEALs with blast exposure
This study looks for early signs of brain injury in Navy SEALs who are repeatedly exposed to blasts. It uses advanced scans and biomarkers to find changes that might lead to problems later on.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–50 - NCT07613918Recruiting
Brain Blood Flow Monitoring in Critically Ill Children
This study measures how well blood flows to your child's brain while they're in the intensive care unit on a breathing machine. Understanding this flow may help doctors better care for critically ill children.
Madison, WisconsinAges 1 day–17 years - NCT06939348Recruiting
Ultrasound therapy for patients with consciousness disorders
This trial tests whether ultrasound stimulation can help people with disorders of consciousness, like coma or a minimally conscious state. It aims to improve brain function and recovery for patients who have been injured for over a month.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–79 - NCT04806620Recruiting
Online app study for brain inflammation lifestyle data
This study uses a digital platform (app/website) to collect lifestyle and symptom information to better understand brain inflammation. You may qualify if you have certain conditions like Long COVID, migraines, autoimmune disease, inflammatory gut issues, mood disorders, or if you are a healthy comparison person.
Delafield, WisconsinAges 2 years+ - NCT05493514Recruiting
Robotic training program for walking and balance
This trial studies whether a robotic training system (called G-EO) can help people with neurological conditions improve walking and balance. It may help by testing which factors predict who benefits most, and it requires regular training sessions.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT02426255Recruiting
Study of serious injuries and complications after trauma
This study follows people with severe injuries (including head injuries and bleeding) to better understand serious complications that can happen after trauma. Your experience may help doctors predict and prevent these complications in the future.
AngersAges 15 years+ - NCT02714387Recruiting
Study of serious complications from non-traumatic blood vessel brain problems
