Recruiting studies
- NCT07565727Recruiting
Heart Health and Metabolism in Early Pregnancy
This study looks at how the body processes sugar and nutrients during pregnancy in women at higher risk for pre-eclampsia (a serious pregnancy condition with high blood pressure). Researchers want to understand if taking low-dose aspirin helps protect heart and metabolic health. You'll have blood tests, body composition scans, and metabolic measurements.
Knoxville, TennesseeAges 18–45 - NCT07573150Recruiting
Pupil Measurements to Predict Breathing Problems After Surgery in Children
This study tests whether measuring how a child's pupils (the dark circles in the eyes) respond to light can predict which children might have breathing problems after receiving pain medication during tonsil surgery. The goal is to help doctors catch and prevent serious breathing issues before they happen.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 3–17 - NCT07620184Recruiting
Parotid Gland Surgery With or Without a Drain
This study compares two ways to do parotid gland surgery (removal of a gland in front of the ear). One method uses a drain tube to remove fluid after surgery, and the other does not. Researchers want to see if skipping the drain is safe and improves recovery.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07646730Recruiting
Wearable Watch to Detect Complications After Lung Surgery
This study tests whether a wearable device (a smartwatch-like device) worn after lung or chest surgery can help doctors catch complications early by monitoring your heart rate, activity, and other vital signs. The goal is to catch problems sooner so you can get help faster.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07662642Recruiting
Timing of lung inflation during robotic prostate surgery
This trial compares two different timings of a lung inflation maneuver during robotic prostate surgery to see which approach helps patients breathe better after surgery.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07557901Enrolling by invitation
Antibiotics to prevent infection after prostate biopsy
This study tests whether taking antibiotics before a prostate biopsy (a needle procedure to check for cancer) reduces infections. You would receive either standard care or a specific antibiotic plan, and researchers will track any infections that develop.
Banská BystricaAges Any age - NCT06968884Enrolling by invitation
Reducing complications after sarcoma surgery
This trial tests a special care plan before, during, and after surgery to lower the risk of problems for people with sarcoma. It compares this new approach to standard care for 300 patients.
Stockholm, Stockholm CountyAges 15 years+ - NCT06916598Enrolling by invitation
Defining lung complications after surgery
This study aims to create a clear, agreed-upon definition for lung problems after surgery. It's not a treatment trial but a way to help doctors and patients better identify and grade these complications.
Wolverhampton, WolverhamptonAges 18 years+ - NCT06545305Enrolling by invitation
Eye problems in homocystinuria patients, 2018–2022
This study looks at eye problems in people with homocystinuria. It will review medical records from 2018 to 2022 to find out how common eye issues are and what might increase the risk.
JeddahAges 20–30 - NCT05836285Recruiting
Recovery room care program after surgery
This trial tests whether a specialized “advanced recovery room care” approach can improve outcomes after certain surgeries. It may help patients who need at least one night in the hospital but do not require immediate ICU-level care after surgery.
Adelaide, South AustraliaAges 18 years+ - NCT05759299Recruiting
Airway management study during anesthesia with intubation
This study observes how breathing tube placement (intubation) and other airway care are done during general anesthesia in the operating room and in other anesthesia settings. It may help improve airway management practices in different clinical environments, but you would typically not receive a new treatment as part of an experimental trial.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05743673Recruiting
SHAPE test to assess pre-surgery heart and lung risk
This trial studies a quick physical test (called the SHAPE test) given before surgery to help predict your risk of complications. It may help doctors choose safer care and monitoring based on your results.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 60 years+ - NCT05479825Recruiting
Lung surgery planning without a tube, using X-ray guidance
This trial looks at a new way to plan a minimally invasive lung segment removal (“segmentectomy”) using live X-ray guidance, without using a chest tube (“tubeless”). It may help patients with certain small lung lesions (sometimes early lung cancer) get the surgery more precisely.
Jinan, Other (Non U.s.)Ages 18–85 - NCT05358535RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two common anesthesia options during endoscopy
This trial compares two IV anesthesia medicines (propofol and etomidate) during endoscopic procedures. It may help your care team choose the safest, most effective anesthesia approach for patients who need anesthesia for endoscopy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06439953Recruiting
Irrigation solution for spinal surgery instrumentation
This trial tests a solution used to clean the surgical site during spine surgeries to see if it helps prevent infections. It is for patients having certain types of spine surgery for conditions like deformity, cancer, or trauma.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18 years+ - NCT06975306Recruiting
Bone Graft for Kneecap Defect in ACL Surgery
This study looks at how a bone graft used to fill a gap in the kneecap affects healing and recovery after ACL reconstruction. Researchers want to see if the graft helps the bone heal better and improves your knee function.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–40 - NCT07570407Recruiting
Blood Immune Cells After Bone Marrow Transplant for Leukemia
This study measures certain immune cells in your blood after a stem cell transplant for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). It aims to understand how well your immune system recovers and may help predict how you'll do after transplant.
Pilsen, CzechiaAges 18–70 - NCT07322705Recruiting
Reducing groin injury during hip scope surgery
This study tests a new way to position patients during hip keyhole surgery to reduce injury to the groin area from pulling. If you are having hip arthroscopy for a condition called femoroacetabular impingement, this trial might help make your recovery smoother.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 15–60 - NCT07603622Recruiting
Physical activity before surgery and recovery
This study looks at how your physical activity before surgery affects your recovery and long-term health. Researchers will track activity levels to see if they predict complications or survival after your operation. This could help tailor care to each patient.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07154550Recruiting
Comparing Mastisol bandage for clubfoot casting
This study compares two types of sticky bandage (Mastisol vs. standard) used during Ponseti casting for babies with clubfoot in both feet. It aims to see which one works better for keeping the casts on and preventing skin problems.
Madison, WisconsinAges birth–3 months - NCT07730034Recruiting
Early physical therapy after heart surgery to prevent breathing problems
This trial tests whether starting physical therapy soon after planned heart surgery can help prevent breathing complications. It is for adults who are having a first-time coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and meet specific health criteria.
ZagrebAges 18–80 - NCT06469801Recruiting
Portable MRI for brain injury in children on ECMO

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for complication?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,138 recruiting complication 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 complication 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 complication 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.
