This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to the eye can help slow vision loss from geographic atrophy, a common cause of blindness in older adults. The treatment uses a special device to stimulate the retina (the light-sensing tissue in the back of your eye).
HamburgAges 60 years+ - NCT06345781Recruiting
Abdominal electrical stimulation for bowel management in spinal cord injury
This trial tests if a special electrical stimulation (FES) on your belly can help make your bowel routine more predictable and shorter. You'll use electrodes on your skin 30 minutes before your usual bowel program.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT07453485Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for Achilles tendon pain and function
This study tests if a brief session of neuromuscular electrical stimulation can reduce pain and improve function in people with Achilles tendon problems, such as midportion or insertional pain, or a healed rupture that happened at least 3 months ago.
Brasília, Federal DistrictAges 18–60 - NCT07622875Enrolling by invitation
Electrical Stimulation for Breathing in Cerebral Palsy
This trial tests whether gentle electrical stimulation of the diaphragm (the muscle that helps you breathe) can improve lung function in children with cerebral palsy who have significant mobility limitations. The goal is to see if this non-invasive treatment can help strengthen breathing and improve quality of life.
AnkaraAges 5–18 - NCT06704334RecruitingPhase 4
Ginkgo and huperzine with nerve stimulation for brain injury recovery
This study tests whether giving ginkgo leaf pills and huperzine A injections along with a mild electrical stimulation on the wrist (median nerve) can help improve thinking and memory problems that remain after a brain injury.
Ganzhou, JiangxiAges 18–80 - NCT06739148Recruiting
Laser therapy for muscle training in healthy adults
This study tests if adding low-level laser therapy to muscle training with electrical stimulation and blood flow restriction can make your workouts more effective. It is for healthy adults aged 20-40.
TainanAges 20–40 - NCT07722429Recruiting
Personalized spinal stimulation for arm function after spinal injury
This study tests a personalized electrical stimulation treatment placed near the spine to see if it can improve arm and hand function after a spinal cord injury. If you have a stable injury above the mid-back and have not had new nerve problems in the last 6 months, you may be able to join.
Hualien CityAges 18–70 - NCT07309003Recruiting
Electrical stimulation and exercise for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests whether a special electrical stimulation (called FES) combined with exercise can help strengthen the muscles around your knee. It may reduce pain and improve function for people with moderate knee osteoarthritis.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 50–65 - NCT06942611Recruiting
Electrical brain stimulation for chronic pain from nerve inflammation
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation technique (transcranial electrical stimulation) to see if it can reduce chronic pain in people with conditions like multiple sclerosis or neuromyelitis optica. It aims to offer a new, drug-free option for pain relief without major side effects.
BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT05908214Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for leg stiffness and overactive nerves
This study tests a treatment using high-frequency electrical stimulation to reduce overactive nerve signals that can cause stiff legs, poor ankle control, cramps, or restless legs. It may help improve movement and comfort during walking or at night, depending on the condition.
LausanneAges 18 years+ - NCT07648511Recruiting
Task Training and Electrical Stimulation for Balance in Children
This study tests whether combining balance training exercises with gentle electrical stimulation can help children with one-sided weakness (hemiparesis) improve their balance and movement control. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard therapy alone.
DamiettaAges 6–9 - NCT07692191Recruiting
Spinal stimulation to help exercise after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a non-invasive device that sends mild electrical pulses to the spinal cord can improve your ability to exercise. It is for people who have had a spinal cord injury for at least a year and are medically stable.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18–70 - NCT06867185Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for nerve healing after finger nerve repair
This trial tests whether giving a small electrical signal during surgery helps nerves in the finger heal better after they are repaired. It might help you regain feeling and movement faster.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18–80 - NCT07130929Recruiting
Electrical stimulation for muscle weakness after severe stroke
This trial tests if a gentle electrical stimulation technique, called functional electrical stimulation, can help patients recover muscle strength after a severe stroke that left them weak in the arms and legs. It may offer a new way to aid rehabilitation in the early months after stroke.
Florence, FIAges 18–80 - NCT06682962Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for electrical stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 365 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.
