CairoAges 40 years+ - NCT06781060Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for sciatic nerve injury in children
This trial tests if electrical nerve stimulation can help children aged 3 to 19 who have nerve damage in the leg caused by an injection. The goal is to improve nerve healing and leg function.
Multan, Punjab ProvinceAges 3–19 - NCT04144972Recruiting
Closed-loop deep brain stimulation for long-lasting nerve pain
This trial tests a “smart” deep brain stimulation device that senses your brain signals and adjusts treatment to reduce severe, long-lasting pain. It may help people whose pain has not improved with multiple pain medicines and surgery cannot fix the cause.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 22–80 - NCT07559890Recruiting
Nerve ablation for low back pain with Modic changes
This study tests a procedure that uses heat to stop a nerve in the lower back from sending pain signals. It may help people with long-term central low back pain who have not gotten better with other treatments and have Modic changes on MRI.
PragueAges 18 years+ - NCT07853170Recruiting
Comparing 3 vs 5-needle knee nerve blocks for arthritis pain
This study compares two ways of numbing the nerves around the knee to see which gives better pain relief and improves quality of life for people with knee osteoarthritis. It might help you decide if a nerve block is a good option for your knee pain.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07629388Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after knee replacement surgery
This trial tests whether adding a nerve block (a numbing injection near the nerve) to the usual pain plan can better control pain after a total knee replacement. The goal is to help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07433634Recruiting
Tracking recovery after BVN ablation for chronic low back pain
This study looks at how well a procedure called BVN ablation (which uses heat to stop pain signals from the vertebrae) works for people with chronic low back pain that comes from the spine. If you already have this procedure scheduled, researchers will track your recovery and pain relief over time.
Guilford, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06583122Recruiting
Nerve block study for occipital pain or migraine
This trial tests if using ultrasound-guided heat (radiofrequency ablation) on the occipital nerve can reduce headache pain. It is for people with occipital neuralgia or migraine pain at the back of the head who haven't had enough relief from oral medications.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18–80 - NCT06185816RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Non-invasive pulsed radiofrequency for nerve pain
This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called pulsed radiofrequency for people with chronic nerve pain after an injury. It uses a device that sends short bursts of energy to the painful area to help reduce pain without surgery.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06296979Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for shoulder pain from liver or gallbladder issues
This study tests if stimulating a nerve in the neck can reduce right shoulder pain caused by liver or gallbladder problems. It may offer a non-drug option for managing this type of pain.
