Kırşehir, CenterAges 18–65 - NCT06697470Recruiting
Ultrasound and fluid monitoring in the ICU
This study uses ultrasound and electrical impedance (skin electrodes) to track fluid balance in the muscles and tissues of ICU patients. It aims to see if these tools can help doctors better manage fluids during your stay.
Boussu, HainautAges 18 years+ - NCT07688863Enrolling by invitation
Comparing breathing muscle training methods for heart failure
This trial compares two different types of breathing muscle training to see which works better for people with heart failure and weak breathing muscles. You may join if you have heart failure with reduced pumping ability and are stable overall.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for muscle?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,147 recruiting muscle 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 muscle 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 muscle 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.
