Escondido, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06259968Recruiting
Electrical stimulation after ACL surgery recovery trial
This trial tests if adding electrical stimulation to standard physical therapy helps people recover strength and movement after ACL reconstruction surgery. It compares two rehab programs starting within days after surgery.
Veranópolis, Rio Grande do SulAges 18–40 - NCT07133620Recruiting
Electrical acupoint stimulation for better recovery after urologic surgery
This trial tests if using mild electrical stimulation on specific acupoints (similar to acupuncture without needles) can help your stomach and bowels get back to normal faster after laparoscopic kidney or prostate surgery.
Xiamen, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06430164Recruiting
Brain and walking study for healthy adults
This study looks at how the brain controls walking in healthy people. You will walk on a treadmill while we measure your brain activity and leg muscles. It helps us understand normal walking so we can better help people with walking problems.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–65 - NCT07235371Recruiting
Electrical Acupoint Stimulation for Bladder Recovery After Cervical Cancer Surgery
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation on specific acupoints (like acupuncture points) can help you regain bladder control after cervical cancer surgery. If you've had a catheter for a few weeks and haven't been able to pee on your own, this might be an option to help retrain your bladder.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT07189819Recruiting
Closed-loop FES system for improving walking after stroke
This study tests a new electrical stimulation system that adapts in real time to help people who have had a stroke walk better. It may improve your step and make walking feel more natural.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 40–90 - NCT06687460Enrolling by invitation
Nerve stimulation after arm nerve injury
This trial tests a mild electrical stimulation to the nerves in your arm to help repair a recently damaged median or ulnar nerve (nerves that control hand movement). It might help your hand function recover better after surgery or injury.
Tainan, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT07535593RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Electrical Acupoint Stimulation for Consciousness Disorders
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) to help people recover consciousness after severe brain injury. The treatment uses mild electrical pulses on specific points on the hands and may help improve awareness and responsiveness.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–80 - NCT07594795Recruiting
Non-invasive brain stimulation safety and feasibility study
This research tests a new, non-invasive method to stimulate deep brain areas using electrical fields applied to the scalp. The study aims to understand how safe and effective this approach is in healthy adults, which could eventually help treat neurological or psychiatric conditions.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–50 - NCT03857529Recruiting
Rehab training for stroke arm control using brain and hand stimulation
This study tests whether non-invasive brain stimulation plus a hand/arm electrical stimulation device can improve how well your stroke-affected arm and hand move during therapy tasks. You would take part in screening and then receive these combined rehab approaches to see if motor control improves.
Cleveland, OhioAges 21 years+ - NCT03947697Recruiting
Electrical stimulation to help improve blood sugar control
This study tests whether electrical stimulation can improve blood sugar control in people who are overweight and not very active. It’s designed for people with low exercise habits and will compare how your blood sugar responds to the intervention.
El Paso, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04189965Recruiting
Study of long-term memory of pain in healthy adults
This study looks at how people remember pain over time. It enrolls healthy adults so researchers can better understand the long-term effects of painful experiences.
BronAges 18–50 - NCT04399707Recruiting
Nerve-pain device study for pain after C-section
This study tests whether a small skin electrical nerve stimulator (called TENS) can reduce pain after a planned or not-urgent C-section. You may be more likely to have less pain and use fewer pain medicines if the TENS helps you.
Honolulu, HawaiiAges 18 years+ - NCT04978571Recruiting
Electrical nerve stimulation for long-lasting concussion symptoms
This study tests whether a device that delivers gentle electrical signals to nerves through the skin can help children and teens with concussion symptoms that have lasted at least 3 months. You may be asked to attend clinic visits for the nerve stimulation setup if you meet the safety and scheduling requirements.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 11–18 - NCT05395715Recruiting
Nerve stimulation study for cubital tunnel nerve compression
This study tests whether a specific type of electrical nerve stimulation (conditioning electrical stimulation) can improve outcomes for people with cubital tunnel syndrome. It is mainly for adults with more severe nerve damage based on specialist test results, and who have not had prior surgery for this problem.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18–79 - NCT06461234Recruiting
Pelvic floor rehab for women with pelvic floor issues
This trial tests a pelvic floor rehabilitation program (using exercises and possibly electrical or magnetic stimulation) for women with weak pelvic muscles after childbirth or mild to moderate pelvic organ prolapse. It aims to improve muscle strength and reduce prolapse symptoms.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06722391Recruiting
Electrical stimulation to improve metabolism in overweight adults
This study tests whether a non-invasive electrical stimulation treatment can help improve metabolism in people who are overweight and inactive. It may be an option for those who do not exercise regularly.
El Paso, TexasAges 18–65 - NCT06838013Recruiting
Electrical stimulation to improve leg movement after stroke
This trial tests a new way to help people with stroke move their legs better by combining electrical stimulation on the back and leg. If you have had a stroke more than 6 months ago and can already walk with or without a cane, this treatment might help strengthen ankle muscles and make walking easier.
Hong KongAges 50–85 - NCT07112911Recruiting
Electrical stimulation with robot for arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests if combining two types of electrical stimulation with a robotic device can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It may be a good option if you have some movement in your arm but not full strength.
Hong KongAges 25–70 - NCT07339072Recruiting
New Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation Study in Healthy Adults
This study tests a new method of stimulating deep brain areas without surgery, using special electrical currents. It aims to see if this method is safe and effective in healthy adults.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–50 - NCT07373808Recruiting
Nerve stimulation and exercise for sciatica leg pain
This study tests whether combining a mild electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve with specific exercises can reduce leg pain from sciatica. It is for people whose nerve-related leg pain has lasted over 6 months and is at least a 3 out of 10 in intensity.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–70 - NCT07377357Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for chronic back-related leg pain
This trial tests if a single session of electrical stimulation to the sciatic nerve can quickly reduce leg pain related to low back problems. It may help if you have had chronic sciatica (leg pain from your back) for more than 6 months and your pain has recently been interfering with daily life.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–70 - NCT07425756Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for arm movement after stroke
This trial tests whether combining two types of nerve stimulation (one on the ear, one on the arm) can improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It's for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and still have some but not full use of their affected arm.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for electrical stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 369 recruiting electrical stimulation 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 electrical stimulation 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 electrical stimulation 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.
