Recruiting studies
- NCT07577336Recruiting
Portable MRI for brain injury in children
This study tests whether a small, portable MRI machine can take pictures of the brain at the bedside for children with brain injuries from lack of oxygen or blood flow. It may help doctors see the injury sooner and guide care without moving the child.
Kansas City, MissouriAges Up to 17 years - NCT06873477Recruiting
Brain injury study for children and young adults
This study looks at children and young adults who have brain damage from a severe head injury or lack of oxygen at birth. It aims to learn more about these conditions and how to help patients.
Rome, LazioAges Up to 20 years - NCT06954610Recruiting
Heart Check for Stroke Risk in Atrial Fibrillation
This trial uses heart imaging to better understand stroke risk in people with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat). It may help doctors decide on the best treatment to prevent another stroke.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT03592563Recruiting
Brain health follow-up study for adults
This study follows adults over time to better understand brain health and brain-related conditions. You may join if you already have certain neurological or psychiatric diagnoses, are at higher risk, or simply want to help research on maintaining brain health.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT02900521Recruiting
Brest stroke and clot registry for local adults
This study is a population registry that records information from people in a specific area of Brest who had certain types of brain blood vessel events. It helps researchers understand how these conditions happen in the real world and may improve future care planning.
BrestAges 15 years+ - NCT06409806Recruiting
Brain retraction monitoring during surgery
This trial monitors brain activity during surgery to see how using a retractor to hold brain tissue still might affect the brain. It may help surgeons understand how to protect the brain during these procedures.
London, Greater LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT06121336Recruiting
Tracking a blood marker to measure stroke recovery
This study is looking at a protein in the blood called brain-derived tau, which may increase after a stroke. By measuring it over time, doctors hope to learn more about how the brain is healing and possibly predict recovery.
Munich, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06469801Recruiting
Portable MRI for brain injury in children on ECMO
This study uses a portable MRI to look for brain injuries in children on ECMO (a heart-lung support machine). It may help doctors detect problems early and improve care.
Kansas City, MissouriAges birth–17 years - NCT05851391RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug treatment to stop hard-to-control seizures after cardiac arrest
This Phase 2 trial tests a medication strategy to stop “refractory status epilepticus,” a severe seizure condition that can happen after a cardiac arrest. It may help by reducing ongoing seizure activity after return of circulation in the ICU.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04198792Recruiting
Finding outcomes after ECMO for heart-related emergencies
This study looks at what helps determine survival and better brain function after people are treated with ECMO, a heart-lung support machine. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to do well after this kind of emergency treatment.
GothenburgAges 16 years+ - NCT04225975Recruiting
Study brain activity in babies right after birth
This study measures a newborn’s brain activity immediately after delivery. It may help doctors better understand early brain function in healthy full-term babies.
AmiensAges 1 minute–15 minutes - NCT05376267Recruiting
Testing how long cooling lasts after pediatric cardiac arrest
This study tests whether using body cooling for different lengths of time helps children recover better after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. It focuses on children who remain very unresponsive after resuscitation and need a breathing tube and steady temperature control.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 2 days–17 years - NCT04981184Recruiting
Testing muscle signals to predict walking recovery after stroke
This study looks at surface muscle electrical signals (from electrodes on the skin) to understand and predict how well your balance and walking may improve after a first stroke. You might benefit by learning more about your recovery and by helping researchers find better ways to track progress.
KaunasAges 18–89 - NCT06048796Recruiting
Early stopping of sedation after cardiac arrest with normal EEG
This study is testing whether it is safe to stop sedation and temperature management early in cardiac arrest patients who have a normal-looking brain wave test (EEG). If you qualify, you would stop sedation sooner than usual, which may help you wake up faster.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18 years+ - NCT06893926Recruiting
Cord blood S100B protein in growth-restricted newborns
This study measures a protein called S100B in umbilical cord blood to learn more about brain development in newborns with fetal growth restriction (FGR), a condition where a baby is smaller than expected. Understanding this protein could help doctors identify babies who may need extra support after birth.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT06984445Recruiting
Cord Blood Protein in Anemia Transfusion Study
This study measures a protein (S100B) in cord blood from babies who had or did not need a blood transfusion in the womb for hemolytic disease. It looks for possible markers of brain health.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07069452Recruiting
Predicting recovery after stroke with brain scan scores
This study looks at how well different scores from brain scans can predict recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had an ischemic stroke and were treated with both clot-dissolving medicine and a clot removal procedure.
GonesseAges 18 years+ - NCT07181564Recruiting
Anesthesia methods and safety in sinus surgery
This trial compares different anesthesia techniques during functional endoscopic sinus surgery to see which one protects the brain best and improves the surgical field. It may help patients understand the safest approach for their procedure.
Pátrai, AchaiaAges 18–90 - NCT07324421Recruiting
Ultrasound vs. CT scan for brain blood flow imaging
This study compares a new ultrasound-based method to a standard CT scan for measuring blood flow in the brain. It is designed for people in the ICU or CCU who are already scheduled for a CT scan and could benefit from a simpler, more portable imaging option.
Montpellier, HeraultAges 18 years+ - NCT06168071Enrolling by invitation
Nerve stimulation in children during EEG monitoring
This trial tests if gentle nerve stimulation through the ear can help diagnose or treat seizures in children. It is for children who are already in the hospital for an EEG to monitor brain activity.
St Louis, MissouriAges 7–18 - NCT05004610RecruitingPhase 2
Hypertonic lactate treatment after cardiac arrest
This trial studies whether giving a specific IV fluid (hypertonic lactate) soon after resuscitation from cardiac arrest can improve recovery. It is for adults who remain in a deep unresponsive state after return of spontaneous circulation.
Brussels, BelgiumAges 18 years+ - NCT02795052Recruiting
Stem cell treatment trial for nerve injury
This study tests whether bone-marrow stem cells can improve nerve function in people with nerve damage that usually doesn’t recover with current care. It also checks whether the treatment is safe and whether people can be followed over time with repeated nerve exams.
Westport, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT04696523RecruitingPhase 2
Xenon gas for brain injury after a ruptured brain aneurysm
This Phase 2 study tests whether xenon gas can reduce brain injury after an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (a bleeding caused by a brain aneurysm). It aims to help people who are very sick right after the bleeding by improving brain function outcomes.
Helsinki, HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT06906432Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for brain ischemia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 24 recruiting brain ischemia 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 brain ischemia 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 brain ischemia 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.
