Dance Mental Health App for Injured Teens
This trial tests a mental health app (SuperBetter) for teens who dance and have a leg injury. It aims to help them cope and stay positive while recovering.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 13–18 - NCT06780202RecruitingPhase 2
Steroid to reduce opioid use after foot/ankle surgery

Study on advanced braces for leg injuries
This study tests a new type of leg brace for people who currently use an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) to help with walking or daily activities after a lower leg injury. The goal is to see if the new brace works better and is more comfortable.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18–80 - NCT06352788Recruiting
Testing custom braces for foot and ankle injuries
This trial studies how well custom leg braces help people with long-term foot or ankle problems from a past injury. It looks at whether wearing a special brace can reduce pain and improve walking.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07075198Recruiting
Testing the Caesar running foot for people with below-knee amputations
This trial tests a new running foot called Caesar for people with below-knee amputations who want to run but don't have a running blade yet. You'll try the foot at home and give feedback on how it works.

Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT02280733Recruiting
Chronic wound registry for real-world care documentation
This study is a real-world registry that collects information about chronic wounds and ulcers as they’re treated in everyday settings. It may help improve how care is tracked and supported, even if you don’t get a new medicine from the study.
The Woodlands, TexasAges Any age - NCT03857945Recruiting
Training to prevent falls after foot or ankle surgery
This trial studies whether teaching people to use mobility devices before surgery can lower the chance of falling afterward. It’s for adults having planned (elective) one-sided foot or ankle surgery and who will need limited walking after surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07312032Recruiting
How footplate stiffness affects walking in carbon fiber braces
This study tests how different levels of stiffness in a custom carbon fiber foot brace (called a dynamic orthosis) change the way your foot hits the ground while walking. If you are a healthy adult without recent injuries or pain, you may be able to join.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–65 - NCT05818410Recruiting
