This study tests a structured program to help people after a brain injury manage emotions and challenging behaviors, and to reduce distress for them and their families. If you (or your family member) can participate safely and understand the activities in French, you may be invited to join a group and assessments.
Illkirch-GraffenstadenAges 18 years+ - NCT05416385Recruiting
Stress echo scan with special contrast to study carotid plaque
This study uses a heart stress ultrasound test, plus a contrast dye, to look for new blood vessel growth inside carotid plaque (the buildup in neck arteries). It may help doctors better judge the risk of stroke and determine which people need closer care.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05427370Recruiting
Compare bypass or stent treatment in weak heart patients
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—bypass surgery (CABG) or stent procedure (PCI)—in people with a weak pumping heart. It looks at which approach works best when the heart muscle is not pumping well and there are multiple blocked heart arteries.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05437237Recruiting
AI test to triage stroke patients using EEG in ambulances
This study tests an AI computer algorithm that helps decide how urgently a person with suspected stroke should be treated, using a special brain-wave test (EEG) in the ambulance. It may help teams spot certain stroke patterns faster and route patients to the right care sooner.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05444452Recruiting
Stent treatment study for blocked heart arteries
This study tests a coronary stent approach for people with significantly blocked heart arteries. It may help by improving blood flow, and it compares treatment in a structured way while monitoring safety and outcomes.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05520359Recruiting
Testing spinal stimulation and devices to improve movement
This study tests spinal stimulation and mobility-related devices to see if they can improve how well you move. You would visit a lab, do simple movement tasks, and share feedback about comfort and what you experience.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 4–70 - NCT05545605Recruiting
Sodium oligomannate to prevent thinking problems after stroke
This trial tests whether sodium oligomannate can help prevent or lessen memory and thinking problems that can happen after a first stroke. It may help people who are recently hospitalized for ischemic stroke and have mild cognitive decline risk.
Guangzhou, BaiyunAges 18–80 - NCT05550077Recruiting
Imaging study for narrowed brain arteries after stroke
This trial uses a detailed eye/brain imaging test (optical coherence tomography) to study people with significantly narrowed brain arteries after certain stroke-like events. It may help researchers better understand and monitor this condition to improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05556395Recruiting
Study after stroke to help thinking and memory recovery
This trial looks at stroke patients who can show specific scan findings on an MRI, then uses thinking tests by phone to track cognitive (thinking and memory) changes. It may help researchers understand whether targeting brain blood-flow disruption can improve post-stroke cognition.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05560724Recruiting
Brain stimulation after stroke to track recovery signals
This study looks at whether brain stimulation and brain scans can help measure recovery after an ischemic stroke. It may help researchers understand who benefits from non-invasive brain stimulation by using brain “signal” markers.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05568069Recruiting
Study of defibrillator implants for non-ischemic weak heart
This study looks at whether implantable defibrillators can reduce dangerous heart rhythms in people with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy (heart weakness not caused by blocked heart arteries), a heart scar, and very low pumping strength despite best treatment. It compares different approaches to choosing which patients should receive these devices.
High Wycombe, BuckinghamshireAges 18 years+ - NCT05591196Recruiting
Electrical spinal stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke
This study tests a non-invasive electrical stimulation treatment meant to help people regain hand and arm movement after a stroke. You would attend frequent therapy-style sessions, and the team would track your arm function over about eight months.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 21–80 - NCT05600374Recruiting
Brain stimulation timed to brain rhythms after recent stroke
This trial tests a special brain-stimulation approach that targets your brain’s natural 8–12 Hz rhythm to improve arm and hand recovery after stroke. It’s designed for people in the early days after an ischemic stroke, when motor recovery is still changing quickly.
Frankfurt a.M., Frankfurt a.M.Ages 18 years+ - NCT05610085RecruitingPhase 2
Levetiracetam for newborn seizures: dose-finding study
This trial studies how to give levetiracetam to newborn babies with seizures. It’s trying to find a safe dose and see if it can help control seizures in early life.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges Up to 1 month - NCT05611242RecruitingPhase 3
Thrombectomy for acute stroke caused by blocked neck and brain arteries
This Phase 3 trial studies whether removing a clot using a catheter (endovascular thrombectomy) works better for certain types of acute ischemic stroke. It focuses on people with a blocked neck artery plus a blockage in the brain, and who can’t get or didn’t respond to IV clot-busting medicine.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18–79 - NCT05617599Recruiting
Checks safety of a stent used in complex heart artery disease
This study looks at how safe and effective a specific stent (SUPRAFLEX CRUZ) is when used in real-world care for people with heart artery blockages in more than one artery. Some participants will also be selected if their heart pumping strength is reduced.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT05644314Recruiting
Drug-coated stent for narrowed vertebral arteries
This trial studies whether a drug-coated stent placed in a narrowed vertebral artery can improve outcomes for people with artery narrowing from plaque. It also looks at how safe the stent is, since it requires specific blood-thinning medicines around the procedure.
