Can mouth muscle tests help diagnose sleep apnea?
This study tests a new device that measures muscle activity in your mouth to diagnose sleep apnea—without needing to spend the night in a lab. If you've already had a sleep test showing either no sleep apnea or moderate to severe sleep apnea, and you're not using CPAP daily, you may be able to help.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT05663008Recruiting
Testing nerve-to-muscle signal changes to diagnose movement diseases
This study measures how nerves communicate with muscles, using recordings and gels. It aims to spot early, personalized signs of conditions like ALS and related diseases, and to improve diagnosis.
Dublin, LeinsterAges 18 years+ - NCT07571395Recruiting
Nerve monitoring during surgery to track muscle relaxation
This trial tests a nerve-monitoring method during elective surgery to track how well muscle-relaxing medications are working. Doctors will place small sensors on your arms to measure nerve and muscle activity, which may help them give you the right dose of anesthesia.
DebrecenAges 18 years+ - NCT07723313RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Amniotic membrane and secretome for carpal tunnel release
This trial tests whether adding a special membrane (amniotic membrane) and a natural healing fluid (secretome) to standard carpal tunnel release surgery can improve hand function better than surgery alone. It may be a good option if your wrist pain and numbness haven't gone away with other treatments.
Denpasar, BaliAges 18 years+ - NCT04981184Recruiting
Testing muscle signals to predict walking recovery after stroke
This study looks at surface muscle electrical signals (from electrodes on the skin) to understand and predict how well your balance and walking may improve after a first stroke. You might benefit by learning more about your recovery and by helping researchers find better ways to track progress.
KaunasAges 18–89 - NCT07699848Recruiting
Sitting actively versus passively: thinking and energy
This study compares two types of sitting to see how they affect your thinking and energy levels. It will help understand if moving while seated is better for your brain and how you feel.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT07699562Recruiting
EMG device study in healthy people and ICU patients
This study tests a device that records muscle activity (EMG) in healthy volunteers and critically ill patients in the ICU. It aims to learn how well the device works in different groups, which could help monitor muscle function in the future.
Evanston, IllinoisAges 18–90 - NCT06691204Recruiting
Comparing thumb and pinky for muscle monitoring during surgery
This trial compares two places on the hand—the thumb base and the pinky base—to see which is better for monitoring muscle relaxation during surgery. Participants will have their muscle response measured with a gentle electrical test (electromyography) while receiving a standard muscle relaxant (rocuronium).
Debrecen, Hajdú-BiharAges 18 years+ - NCT07516834Recruiting
Spine Surgery Recovery: Open vs. Minimally Invasive Approaches
This study compares how people recover their normal walking patterns after surgery for mid-to-lower spine fractures. Researchers will measure your gait (how you walk) and muscle activity to see if the type of surgery affects how quickly you heal.
Ústí nad Labem, Ústí nad Labem RegionAges 20–75 - NCT06227182Recruiting
Comparing MRI and ultrasound for muscle health
This study compares two imaging methods, MRI and ultrasound, to see how well they measure muscle health. It may help find better ways to monitor muscle conditions without invasive tests.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges 18–70 - NCT07446283Recruiting
How table tennis players hit forehand shots
This study looks at how elite table tennis players perform different forehand strokes. It uses motion sensors and muscle activity readings to understand the movements involved.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 13–40 - NCT07448857Recruiting
Scapula movement and muscle activity in upper string players with neck pain
This study looks at how the shoulder blade moves and muscles work in violin and viola players who have neck pain. It may help understand why neck pain happens and how to treat it better.
Taipei, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT07437989Recruiting
Peripheral neuropathy observation study
This study collects medical data from people with peripheral neuropathy to better understand the condition. It includes simple nerve tests and exams, and does not test any new treatments.
Peschiera del Garda, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT07294131RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing muscle loss in hospitalized older adults
This trial tests a special exercise approach using blood-flow restriction and a video game to help older adults in the hospital keep their muscle strength. The goal is to find a safe way for bedridden patients to exercise and recover better.
AntwerpAges 65 years+ - NCT05965830Recruiting
Diaphragm testing in babies using ultrasound or a breathing-recording test
This study compares two ways to measure how well a baby’s diaphragm (main breathing muscle) works in babies and children who need breathing support. It may help doctors choose the best test to guide safe breathing changes, like when to remove the breathing tube or support.
LeidenAges birth–1 year - NCT07273123Recruiting
Chewing gum and fatigue in jaw joint health
This study tests if chewing sugar-free gum for a while can affect how tired you feel and how your jaw muscles work. It compares people with and without jaw joint problems (TMJ disorders).
Milan, MilanAges 19–35 - NCT07243028Recruiting
Pelvic floor training with ultrasound and electrical feedback
This trial tests whether adding ultrasound and muscle-activity feedback to standard pelvic floor exercises helps women with pelvic floor problems like organ prolapse, stress incontinence, or difficulty emptying the bladder.
Tainan, TaiwanAges 21 years+ - NCT07198568Recruiting
Swallowing and Neck Muscle Activity in Sarcopenic Dysphagia
This study looks at how the muscles in your neck and throat work when you swallow, specifically in older adults who have both sarcopenia (low muscle mass) and trouble swallowing. The goal is to better understand the connection between swallowing and muscle activity, which may help develop better treatments.
Incheon, Jung-guAges 65 years+ - NCT07161531Recruiting
Testing muscle fatigue sensors in active teens
This trial checks if a sensor that measures muscle tiredness works reliably in teenagers who are physically active. If you play sports or dance regularly, your participation could help improve how we understand muscle fatigue.
WilrijkAges 13–19 - NCT06056180Recruiting
Motor imagery training for balance in older adults
This study tests whether imagining moving your body (motor imagery training) can improve balance in older adults. It will compare this mental practice with usual activities to see if it helps prevent falls and improves stability.
Menteşe, MuğlaAges 60–80 - NCT07074028Recruiting
Tracking muscle changes in ICU patients with sepsis
This study is for people in the ICU with sepsis who need a breathing machine for a long time. It monitors muscle changes during recovery to understand how sepsis affects muscles.
Saint-BrieucAges 18 years+ - NCT04987814Recruiting
Testing a skin-sensor scan to detect muscle loss
This study uses a high-detail sensor placed on the skin to look for signs of sarcopenia, or age-related muscle loss. The goal is to see whether the scan can help diagnose sarcopenia more accurately.
Ivry-sur-SeineAges 75 years+ - NCT05581680Recruiting
Facial movement study comparing people with and without facial weakness
This study uses special sensors (electrodes and small markers) to measure how facial muscles move. It compares people with peripheral facial palsy to people without facial problems to better understand facial movement changes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for electromyography?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 35 recruiting electromyography 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 electromyography 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 electromyography 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.
