Electrical acupoint stimulation for chronic cancer pain relief
This trial tests if a small, patient-controlled device that sends mild electrical pulses to acupoints (like acupuncture without needles) can improve quality of life for people with ongoing cancer pain. It may offer a drug-free way to manage pain at home.
Zhejiang, HangzhouAges 18–80 - NCT07307703Recruiting
TENS for pain and anxiety after gallbladder surgery
This trial tests whether TENS, a mild electrical therapy, can reduce pain and anxiety after gallbladder removal. If you are having planned gallbladder surgery and are in good health, you may be able to participate.
Niğde, AdanaAges 18 years+ - NCT07304076Recruiting
JHG002 Injection for Chronic Low Back Pain
This study tests if JHG002 injections (made from human placenta) are safe and effective for treating chronic low back pain. It may help people who have had low back pain for at least 6 months and rate their pain as a 5 or higher on a 0–10 scale.
Seoul, Gangdong-guAges 19–70 - NCT04109365Recruiting
Study of epidural placement technique during labor
This trial studies an approach to placing an epidural (pain medicine placed near the spine) during early labor. It aims to improve how safely and accurately epidurals are positioned, which may help with comfort during childbirth.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07109895Recruiting
Custom insoles with electrical stimulation for diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests whether custom-made insoles combined with a mild electrical stimulation device can help heal diabetic foot ulcers better than standard care. It may reduce pain and improve healing for people with early-stage foot ulcers.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18 years+ - NCT06546605Recruiting
Training methods for university athletes' performance and health
This study compares different training methods to see which best improves health and performance for university athletes. It uses whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (WB-EMS) as part of the training.
MacaoAges 18–30 - NCT07011537Enrolling by invitation
Digital health program and TENS for chronic low back pain
This trial tests a digital health program combined with a TENS device (a small device that sends gentle electrical pulses to help with pain) for people with ongoing low back pain. It compares this approach to standard care, and you would be randomly assigned to one of the two groups.
Eden Prairie, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06240260Recruiting
TENS unit for pain relief during IUD insertion
This study tests whether a small device called a TENS unit can reduce pain during IUD insertion. The TENS unit sends gentle electrical pulses through pads on your skin to help block pain signals, and you'll be part of a group that uses it during the procedure.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for electrical stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 350 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.
