Recruiting studies
- NCT06027684Recruiting
Intensive care decisions, survival, and dying well

Fluid removal guided by VeXUS score after heart surgery
This trial tests if using a special ultrasound score (VeXUS) to guide fluid removal can improve recovery in patients with acute kidney injury after heart surgery. It compares this approach to standard care to see if it leads to better outcomes.
Bron, BronAges 18–85 - NCT06465121Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided IV placement for children with difficult veins
This trial tests whether using ultrasound to guide IV placement helps children who are known to have hard-to-find veins. It aims to make the process quicker and less painful.
ReimsAges 1 month–18 years - NCT07706244Recruiting
Does reducing pre-surgery anxiety help orthopedic patients recover better?
This study tests if a program to reduce anxiety before surgery (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) improves how patients feel one year after major orthopedic surgery like knee, hip, or spine procedures, compared to standard care.
Hualien City, Hualien CountyAges 20–100 - NCT06409767Recruiting
Early warning system for blood cancer patients on chemo or transplant
This study tests whether a special early warning system can help doctors spot problems sooner in people with blood cancers who are getting strong chemo or a stem cell transplant. The goal is to improve outcomes by catching complications early.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07506720Recruiting
Early biking in bed after spine surgery
This study tests whether a short session of pedaling a special bike while lying in bed, soon after spine surgery, can help you recover faster. It's for people who could walk before surgery and are stable after the operation.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06476886Recruiting
Comparing two hospital units for teens in crisis
This trial tests a new way to help teenagers who are in a mental health crisis with suicidal thoughts. It compares two different hospital units to see which one works better for teens and their families.
Columbus, OhioAges 12–17 - NCT07234292Recruiting
Patient satisfaction with Blephaderm after eyelid surgery
This trial tests how satisfied patients are with using Blephaderm, a complementary care product, after eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty or ptosis repair). It aims to help improve recovery and comfort.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT07137949Recruiting
Music therapy to prevent delirium in patients with memory or movement problems
This trial tests whether a music therapy session can help prevent delirium (sudden confusion) in hospitalized patients with memory or movement disorders like Parkinson's or Alzheimer's. If it works, music could become a drug-free way to keep you clearer-headed during a hospital stay.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 60 years+ - NCT07716787Recruiting
Brain monitoring during breathing therapy in critically ill patients
This study looks at how a breathing machine setting (called PEEP) affects blood flow in the brain. If you or your loved one is in the ICU with a serious brain injury and is on a breathing machine, this trial could help doctors understand how to make breathing therapy safer for the brain.
Dongying, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06014801RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing low vs. medium continuous dialysis for kidney injury in the ICU
This study compares two intensities (low vs. medium) of continuous dialysis for people with sudden kidney failure in the ICU. It aims to find which level of treatment works best for critically ill patients.
Sendai, MiyagiAges 18 years+ - NCT06799910Recruiting
Optimizing fluid balance with bioelectrical impedance during dialysis in ICU
This trial tests a method to better manage fluid levels in critically ill patients who are receiving a type of dialysis (CVVH) for kidney failure. It uses a device (bioelectrical impedance) to measure fluid in the body, which may help doctors give the right amount of fluids more safely.
SalouëlAges 18 years+ - NCT06834633Recruiting
Kidney protection for severe trauma patients
This trial tests a method to protect kidneys in patients with severe injuries who show early signs of kidney stress. If you or a loved one had a serious accident and are at risk for kidney damage, this study may offer extra monitoring or treatment.

Heerlen, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT03334006RecruitingPhase 2
Tested special immune-targeting treatment after abdominal infection surgery
This Phase 2 study tests whether Pentaglobin®, a blood-product made from immune proteins, helps critically ill people with severe abdominal infection (peritonitis) after the infection source is surgically cleaned up. It targets patients with signs of strong inflammation and severe illness.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT05898126Recruiting

FDG PET/CT scan after unexplained stroke to find hidden cancer
This study checks whether doing an intensive scan using FDG PET/CT shortly after a “cryptogenic” (unexplained) ischemic stroke can uncover an underlying cause, such as cancer. If a hidden source is found earlier, it may help guide the next treatment steps.
