Strength Training on Uninjured Side During Shoulder Injury Recovery
This study tests whether exercising your uninjured arm and shoulder while your injured shoulder heals in a sling can help you recover strength and function faster. Researchers will also use a safe brain-imaging tool to measure how your nervous system responds to this training.
Santiago, ProvidenciaAges 18–36 - NCT07399834Enrolling by invitation

Saving the submandibular gland during neck surgery
This study looks at whether a specific way of doing neck surgery can help preserve the salivary gland under your jaw in people with early-stage mouth cancer. It may reduce side effects related to saliva, while treating the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges Up to 90 years - NCT04031820Recruiting
Comparing two hip cup types to prevent dislocation
This trial compares a “dual-mobility” hip cup to a “unipolar” hip cup during primary hip replacement, focusing on dislocation (the hip coming out of place) and overall cost-effectiveness. It may help your care team choose the best implant for you and monitor outcomes after surgery.
AmsterdamAges 70 years+ - NCT04090359RecruitingPhase 4
Dual-mobility cups for hip replacement revision surgery
This trial studies a specific kind of hip socket (a dual-mobility cup) used during revision hip replacement surgery. It may help improve hip stability and reduce the chance of dislocation when surgeons redo or convert a previous hip implant.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04195256RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Nasal sedation medicine for kids needing a quick procedure
This trial tests whether a nose spray (dexmedetomidine plus ketamine) can safely and effectively sedate children during an ED procedure for certain arm injuries. It may help reduce distress and improve comfort compared with usual care.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 2–17 - NCT04370626Recruiting
Study of surgery outcomes for perilunate wrist injuries
This trial looks at how well treatment works for people with a perilunate wrist injury. You may be asked to follow a specific care plan after surgery, including therapy, check-in visits, and questionnaires.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 14–120 - NCT04554212Recruiting
Blood flow restriction therapy after kneecap instability
This trial tests whether a special exercise method called blood flow restriction training can help people recover faster and get back to running and pivoting activities after a kneecap (patella) that slips out of place. It may help strengthen the knee while you go through physical therapy.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 14–40 - NCT04849130Recruiting
Compare two surgical MPFL techniques for kneecap dislocation
This trial compares two ways surgeons rebuild a key ligament (the MPFL) to help stop recurrent kneecap dislocations. It may help you by checking which technique works better for stability and recovery.
BaselAges 14 years+ - NCT05361980Recruiting
Study of safety and results of a pediatric bone implant
This study looks at whether a specific pediatric bone implant is safe and works well for children who need it. By joining, you help researchers track outcomes over time and understand possible implant-related side effects.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges birth–25 years - NCT05397210Recruiting
Check how a clavicle joint button system works long term
This study follows people who have an AC joint dislocation to see how well an implant (the Infinity-Lock button system) stabilizes the joint over time. It may help confirm the device is safe and effective for patients needing stabilization.
CanterburyAges 16 years+ - NCT05593146RecruitingPhase 2
3D hip reconstruction surgery to prevent dislocation
This trial compares a modified hip implant positioning method to lower the chance of the hip “slipping out of place” (dislocation) after major hip tumor surgery and reconstruction. If you qualify, you may help test whether a small change in implant angle improves stability and function.
Ningbo, ZhejiangAges 16 years+ - NCT05593887Recruiting
Compare three surgeries for late hip dislocation in non-walking children with CP
This trial looks at which surgery works best for children with cerebral palsy who do not walk and have a neglected, deformed hip that has dislocated for a long time. The goal is to compare outcomes after three different hip procedures.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges Any age - NCT05654025Recruiting
Study of eyesight outcomes after congenital lens dislocation
This follow-up study looks at how vision changes over time in children and adults with congenital lens dislocation, and what complications may occur. It may help doctors better predict outcomes and prevent problems after diagnosis.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 3 years+ - NCT05658289Recruiting
Latarjet vs shoulder bone surgery after front dislocation
This trial compares two types of surgery that rebuild the front (anterior) shoulder bone when there has been significant bone loss. It may help find which operation works better to keep your shoulder from dislocating again.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 16–40 - NCT05703958Recruiting
Long-term follow-up for a shoulder fracture plate
This study follows people who received a specific shoulder (proximal humerus) fracture plate system, to track how the implant performs over time. It helps doctors understand long-term safety and durability of the device after surgery.
New York, New YorkAges 21 years+ - NCT05924178Recruiting
Pre-surgery rehab to improve healing after knee ligament injury
This study looks at whether doing physical therapy before surgery can improve tendon healing, bone density, and joint cushioning after ACL surgery or patellar dislocation surgery. It may help you recover better and faster by optimizing your knee before the operation.
BeijingAges 18–45 - NCT05976256Recruiting
Kinesio tape for new shoulder or chest injuries
This trial looks at whether kinesio tape (elastic therapeutic tape) helps pain and movement after a fresh shoulder or chest wall injury. It’s designed for certain types of rib, collarbone, or shoulder joint injuries when the injury happened very recently.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06085586Recruiting
Fibulink implant for ankle fracture with torn ligament, early weight bearing
This trial tests a new surgical implant system (Fibulink) for repairing a torn ligament between the shin bones (syndesmosis) along with an ankle fracture. The goal is to allow you to put weight on your foot earlier than usual after surgery.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 22 years+ - NCT06118736Recruiting
Guided bone growth to prevent hip problems in children with cerebral palsy
This trial tests a surgery to guide the growth of the upper thigh bone (femur) to keep the hip joint from sliding out of place in children with spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to prevent further hip migration and avoid more serious hip problems later.
AmsterdamAges 2–8 - NCT06154889Recruiting
Rehab program after shoulder stabilization surgery (Latarjet)
This study tests a new rehab program after a shoulder stabilization surgery called Latarjet. It may help you recover better if you have had a dislocated shoulder and need this surgery.
AnnecyAges 18–67 - NCT06261645Recruiting
Exercise program for non-traumatic shoulder instability
This study tests a new exercise program for people with non-traumatic shoulder instability (looseness without injury). It focuses on improving how well your rotator cuff muscles control shoulder rotation.
Gothenburg, MölndalAges 16–35 - NCT06293469Recruiting
Speeding up flap surgery for severe leg injuries
This trial tests whether performing flap surgery sooner after a severe leg injury below the knee leads to better outcomes. If you have an open fracture or dislocation that needs a flap, you may be able to join.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06525545Recruiting
Early Motion After Total Ankle Replacement
This study tests whether starting ankle movement early after total ankle replacement helps you recover faster and with better results. It is for adults with osteoarthritis who are getting their first ankle replacement.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for dislocation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 60 recruiting dislocation 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 dislocation 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 dislocation 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.
