Recruiting studies
- NCT05434130RecruitingPhase 2
Testing the right exercise amount to help concussion recovery
This study tests whether adjusting how much exercise you do can improve recovery after a concussion. You may be screened to make sure symptoms are still present, and then assigned to an exercise plan that matches the study’s goals.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 13–18 - NCT05498038Recruiting
Exercise program to help military concussion recovery
This trial studies whether a structured exercise “reset” program can improve recovery after concussion in active-duty service members. There are two groups: one soon after a new concussion and one with either lingering symptoms or a more recently recovered concussion.
Fayetteville, North CarolinaAges 18–40 - NCT05562232Recruiting
Creatine for persistent concussion symptoms after 6–18 months
This trial studies whether creatine monohydrate can improve long-lasting symptoms after a concussion. It’s for adults whose symptoms have lasted between 6 and 18 months.
OdenseAges 20–45 - NCT05588115Recruiting
Test blood biomarkers to help diagnose concussion
This study checks whether a blood test can accurately and quickly identify an uncomplicated concussion. It may help doctors confirm concussion sooner and more reliably, and potentially reduce time and cost of diagnosis.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–65 - NCT05719844Recruiting
Computer tests to assess concussion recovery in young rugby players
This study checks whether a set of computer-based attention and thinking tests can help manage concussion (a brain injury) in young rugby players. It compares players who had a concussion with similarly aged players who haven’t had one.
Clermont-FerrandAges 11–25 - NCT05785000Recruiting
Rehab program for long-lasting concussion symptoms
This trial tests a rehabilitation approach for people with post-concussion syndrome (ongoing symptoms after a mild head injury). It may help by guiding safer, structured recovery—especially through exercise—if it fits your situation and you can participate.
Copenhagen, Region of Greater CopenhagenAges 18–70 - NCT05825027Recruiting
Sorting out risk in children with a recent concussion
This study looks at how to identify which children are at higher risk after a concussion and how they should be monitored. It may help doctors choose safer, more personalized follow-up care after a recent head injury.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 11–17 - NCT05993351Recruiting
Concussion assessment using MRI and blood tests
This study uses MRI scans and blood tests to measure brain recovery after a concussion. It will help doctors understand how concussions affect the brain and find better ways to diagnose them.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 9–50 - NCT06208813Recruiting
Creatine for Concussion Recovery in Young Adults
This study tests whether taking creatine (a natural muscle supplement) can help young adults recover faster after a concussion. The trial starts very soon after injury, within the first 3 days.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–35 - NCT06246669Recruiting
Exercise and fear after concussion in college athletes
This study looks at whether prescribed exercise can help college athletes feel less afraid of pain after a concussion. It aims to see if exercise helps them recover better.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–25 - NCT06260072RecruitingPhase 2
Magnesium and Riboflavin for Post-Concussion Headaches
This trial tests if taking magnesium and riboflavin (vitamin B2) can help reduce headaches after a concussion. It is for University of Virginia students who have had a concussion within the past 3 days and can swallow pills.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–40 - NCT06376500Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help thinking after concussion
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that some people have after a mild concussion. tDCS uses a small electrical current from scalp electrodes to gently activate parts of the brain.
Hung Hom, KowloonAges 18–65 - NCT06413173Recruiting
Remote brain stimulation for attention after mild TBI
This trial tests if a remote brain stimulation device can improve attention and concentration in active-duty service members who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. Participants use the device at home while completing tasks to help with daily focus.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT06559865Recruiting
Breathing exercises for concussion recovery in kids
This study tests whether slow, paced breathing exercises can help kids recover from a concussion. It looks at how the body's 'automatic' nervous system (which controls heartbeat, sweating, etc.) works after head injury.
Montreal, QuebecAges 9–18 - NCT06615908RecruitingPhase 1
Psilocybin therapy for lingering concussion symptoms
This study tests whether a single dose of psilocybin, given with therapist support, can reduce long-lasting symptoms after a concussion. If your symptoms have continued for months, you may be eligible.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–65 - NCT06855186Recruiting
Rehabilitation for concussion based on your symptoms
This study tests a symptom-focused rehabilitation program for people who had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion) at least 3 months ago. It aims to help with ongoing cognitive complaints like memory or concentration problems.
Wahiawa, HawaiiAges 18–64 - NCT06893029Recruiting
Dizziness from visual motion in concussion and other causes
This study looks at how people with dizziness from concussion or other causes (like vestibular migraine) react to visual motion. It tests balance during specific visual challenges to understand why dizziness happens.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18–60 - NCT06956417Recruiting
Memory rehab after concussion
This trial tests a memory rehabilitation program for people who have had a concussion and still have memory problems. It uses a computer, tablet, or smartphone to help improve memory.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18–59 - NCT07223086Recruiting
Tinted contact lenses for concussion light sensitivity
This trial tests if special tinted contact lenses can help reduce light sensitivity caused by a concussion. It may help people who have had a mild concussion in the past two years and are bothered by light.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07246993Recruiting
Brain training for ongoing symptoms after concussion
This trial tests if a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS can help people with persistent memory or thinking problems after a mild concussion. You will use a smartphone app and may receive active or placebo stimulation over several sessions.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–65 - NCT07527663Recruiting
GyroStim therapy for persistent symptoms after concussion
This study tests whether GyroStim—a specialized rotating chair therapy—can help reduce dizziness, balance problems, and thinking difficulties that last more than 4 weeks after a head injury. GyroStim is designed to retrain how your brain and inner ear work together.
Appleton, WisconsinAges 18 years+ - NCT07572734Recruiting
Breathing exercises to help after a concussion in teens
This study tests whether special breathing exercises can help the nervous system recover better after a concussion. Kids ages 9–18 who come to the emergency room within 3 days of a concussion may qualify if they have symptoms like dizziness, nausea, tiredness, confusion, anxiety, or sleep problems.
Montreal, QuebecAges 9–18 - NCT05942638Enrolling by invitation
Tracking how concussion affects college driving over time
This study follows young adults who drive to see how a concussion may affect driving abilities over time. You may be asked to complete driving- and health-related assessments, and the results could help improve safety and guidance after concussion.
Athens, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05542628Enrolling by invitation
Baseline concussion testing for football players
This study sets up “starting point” measurements for concussion-related tests in football. It enrolls players who currently do not have a suspected or confirmed concussion, so researchers can compare future test results if a concussion is suspected later.
