Nerve Block to Reduce Pain During Below-Knee Fracture Surgery
This study tests a nerve-blocking injection (numbing medicine around the femoral artery nerve in your groin area) to help reduce pain and blood pressure changes during below-knee fracture surgery when a tourniquet (pressure cuff) is used. The goal is to see if this approach makes surgery more comfortable and safer.
AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT06010433Recruiting

Rohtak, HaryanaAges 18–50 - NCT07493473Recruiting
Comparing two injections for rib fracture pain
This trial tests two different numbing injections for people with broken ribs on one side of the chest. The goal is to find which injection works better to reduce pain without the need for a breathing machine.
Zagazig, Sharqia ProvinceAges 21–60 - NCT07517497Recruiting
Lung Vibration Device for Seniors With Hip Fracture and Breathing Problems
This study tests a special vibration device on the chest to help older adults who have both a hip fracture and acute breathing failure recover better. The device uses gentle vibrations to help clear the lungs and improve breathing.
AstanaAges 60–85 - NCT07357493Recruiting
Studying a new surgery for hand bone fractures
This trial tests a new way to fix certain broken hand bones (metacarpals) using a metal plate. It compares this method to other treatments to see which works better for healing and recovery.
Stockholm, Stockholm CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06968858RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new device to find blocked heart stents
This trial tests a new, non-invasive device that uses microwaves to detect if a heart stent is blocked. If you have a stent and are scheduled for a heart catheterization, this study may help see if the device works as well as the standard procedure.
Badalona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07227493Recruiting
Bioactive glass for open pilon fracture repair
This trial tests a special glass material to help heal severe ankle bone fractures. It may help people who need a bone graft after an open pilon fracture.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07215845Recruiting
Healing spinal bone stress with MRI monitoring
This study uses MRI scans to see how well a spinal stress injury (called a pars defect) heals over time. It might help if you are a young person with low back pain from a specific type of bone stress in the lower spine.
Columbia, MissouriAges 12–30 - NCT06741956Enrolling by invitation
Wearable device for osteoporosis prevention in women
This trial tests a wearable device designed to help prevent osteoporosis and reduce fracture risk in women who have recently gone through menopause. The goal is to see if the device can help you stay active and lower your chances of breaking a bone.
Seville, SpainAges 40 years+ - NCT07035015Recruiting
Virtual reality vs mannequin for learning a hip nerve block
This study compares learning a specific nerve block (for the hip/upper thigh) using a self-guided virtual reality headset versus a traditional mannequin. It is for doctors and trainees at The Ottawa Hospital who want to improve their ultrasound skills for this procedure.
Ottawa, OntarioAges Any age - NCT06737237Enrolling by invitation
Nerve block vs. local numbing for collarbone surgery

This study looks at past hip replacement patients to develop a score that predicts who might have another fracture later. It may help doctors prevent future breaks.
Milan, ItaliaAges 60 years+ - NCT06389240Enrolling by invitation
Early weight bearing for shinbone fractures
This study tests whether starting to put weight on your leg early after surgery helps people with a certain type of shinbone fracture heal better. If you qualify, you'll receive standard surgery and then be assigned to either an early or a delayed weight bearing schedule.

- How do I know if I qualify for a fracture 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 fracture 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.
