Recovery Methods for Upper Arm Weakness After Stroke
This study compares two physical therapy approaches—Roods (a sensory-based technique) and PNF (a stretching and strengthening method)—to help improve arm function in people recovering from their first stroke. Both methods aim to help you regain strength and control in your upper arm and hand.
Faisalābad, Punjab ProvinceAges 40–60 - NCT07445204Enrolling by invitation
Electrical stimulation for swallowing after stroke
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation technique on neck muscles can help improve swallowing in people who recently had a stroke. It may be a good option if you are still having trouble swallowing after your stroke.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT07226908Enrolling by invitation
Brain electrode study for epilepsy and memory
This study places electrodes in the brain to learn how seizures spread and how memory works. It may help people with temporal lobe epilepsy understand their condition better and improve future treatments.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07171346Enrolling by invitation
Muscle stimulator after ACL reconstruction
This study tests whether a special muscle-stimulating device worn after ACL reconstruction surgery can help your knee recover strength faster. If you qualify, you will use the device at home for a few weeks and your recovery will be checked regularly.
Kansas City, KansasAges 15–50 - NCT07063381Enrolling by invitation
Low-frequency stimulation for cognition in atrial fibrillation
This study tests whether low-frequency electrical stimulation can help improve thinking and memory in people with permanent atrial fibrillation and cognitive impairment. Participants will receive the stimulation and have their cognitive function checked over six months.
MoscowAges 60–90 - NCT07046143Enrolling by invitation
Spinal cord stimulation for nerve pain in the lower back
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment that uses mild electrical stimulation on the skin over the spine to help relieve nerve-related pain in the lower back. It may be an option for people with chronic nerve pain, with or without pain spreading down the leg.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–80 - NCT06693882Enrolling by invitation
Electrical stimulation for glaucoma
This study tests if mild electrical stimulation of the optic nerve can help people with moderate to advanced glaucoma. It may be an option if your glaucoma has gotten worse despite standard treatments.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05152992Enrolling by invitation
Studying brain networks during epilepsy surgery planning
This study looks at how emotion-related brain connections change in space and over time while people with epilepsy are having surgery-related electrodes placed to find seizure sources. It may help researchers better understand brain networks and improve future treatment planning.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05047289Enrolling by invitation
Registry study for a new stomach pacemaker
This study records outcomes for people who need a new implanted stomach electrical stimulation device for severe stomach emptying problems (gastroparesis) that haven’t improved with usual treatments. It may help doctors learn which patients benefit most and how to manage the device over time.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–80 - NCT07588490Recruiting
TENS for sudden severe lower back pain in the emergency room
This trial tests a pain-relief device called TENS (a small machine that sends mild electrical pulses through your skin) for people with sudden, severe lower back pain in the emergency department. Researchers want to see if TENS can help reduce your pain quickly without extra medications.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06527131Recruiting
Pulsed magnetic field therapy for Charcot foot ulcers
This trial tests whether pulsed electromagnetic field stimulation can help heal foot ulcers caused by Charcot foot disease. It is for adults aged 50 to 70.

How people with cochlear implants and hearing aids understand sound
This study tests how well children and adults can use sound from both ears when they have a cochlear implant in one ear and a hearing aid in the other (or a special device that combines both). It looks at how your brain makes sense of sounds to help improve hearing and speech understanding.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for electrical stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 363 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.
