Recruiting studies
- NCT03195556Recruiting
Test ultrasound contrast to improve blood flow in legs
This study checks whether using a special ultrasound with contrast can improve blood flow in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). If you have leg circulation problems, it may help doctors measure and potentially enhance how well blood reaches your limb.
Portland, OregonAges 19–99 - NCT05327478Recruiting
Compare treatments for controlled donation after circulatory death
This trial compares different care approaches for adult donors in a specific type of controlled donation after the heart stops. It aims to find which approach best supports organ/tissue use after donation.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 50–75 - NCT03607565Recruiting
Imaging test to measure brain blood flow in stroke
This trial studies a new imaging measurement derived from DSA (a special type of brain blood-vessel scan) to better estimate how well blood is flowing in the brain. It may help doctors assess stroke-related blood-flow problems, but it excludes people who have brain bleeding.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges Any age - NCT06085612Recruiting
How carotid artery blockage affects blood flow in the retina
This trial examines how a narrowing of the main neck artery (carotid stenosis) impacts blood flow in the retina using a special eye test called automated retinal oximetry. The goal is to better understand how this blockage affects eye health.
OlomoucAges 18 years+ - NCT07854431Recruiting
Measuring brain blood flow with light in healthy adults
This study uses a safe, non-invasive light-based technique called near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to measure blood flow and oxygen in the brain. It aims to test a new monitoring device in healthy volunteers aged 20 to 40 to make sure it works correctly.
DüsseldorfAges 20–40 - NCT04451551Recruiting
PET/CT scan study for reduced blood flow in the heart
This study uses a special PET/CT scan that shows how well blood reaches your heart muscle. It may help doctors better assess suspected or known reduced blood flow (ischemic heart disease).
Aarhus, Aarhus NAges 18 years+ - NCT07860346Recruiting
Measuring bone blood flow with a total-body PET/CT scan
This study tests a new way to measure blood flow in your bones using a special whole-body PET/CT scanner. It may help improve how doctors detect bone problems in the future.
LondonAges 50 years+ - NCT06418165Recruiting
Cooled oxygenated machine perfusion for liver transplant
This study tests a new way to preserve donated livers using a machine that keeps the organ cool and oxygenated before transplant. It may help improve how well the liver works after the surgery.
ViennaAges 18 years+ - NCT06421103Recruiting
ICG micro-dosing study for children having surgery
This study tests a tiny amount of a dye called Indocyanine Green (ICG) during surgery to see if it safely shows blood flow to the gut and urinary organs. It may help doctors check that these organs are getting enough blood during the operation.
LondonAges Up to 18 years - NCT05680246Recruiting
Study of long-term outcomes after special donor-liver preservation
This study looks at how well people do in the long run after liver transplant using donor livers that were preserved in a specific machine called DHOPE for more than 4 hours. It may help doctors understand whether this preservation method leads to better transplant outcomes over time.
GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT04646252Recruiting
Testing a blood-surface feature to prevent heart problems
This study looks at whether a healthy blood lining (the glycocalyx) can help predict and reduce the risk of major heart events in people who have not yet had heart disease. You may be asked to do screening tests and share health information to see how these factors relate to future risk.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–85 - NCT07834476Enrolling by invitation
Setting treatment targets for severe head injury in children
This study looks at information from children who had a serious head injury. It uses data from special brain monitors to help doctors decide how to best manage these injuries.
Cambridge, CambridgeshireAges 1 month–18 years - NCT07832305Recruiting
Blood pressure targets and eye blood flow during nose surgery
This study looks at how different blood pressure targets during nose surgery affect blood flow to the eye and the optic nerve. It aims to find the safest way to protect eye health during anesthesia.
ÇorumAges 18 years+ - NCT07820371Recruiting
Perfusion index for diabetic ketoacidosis severity in the emergency department
This study looks at a simple, non-invasive measurement called the perfusion index, which shows how well blood is flowing to your tissues, to help doctors quickly determine how severe diabetic ketoacidosis (a serious diabetes complication) is. The goal is to see if this measurement can guide treatment and improve outcomes.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07820566Recruiting
Personalized 3D tumor model for kidney, bladder, and prostate cancers
This study uses your tumor sample to build a personalized 3D model that mimics how your cancer grows. The goal is to better understand these cancers and potentially find more effective treatments in the future.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07793266RecruitingPhase 1
Seeing the knee better with dye during arthroscopy
This study tests whether a special dye helps doctors see knee structures better during knee arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery to look inside the knee). It may improve the accuracy of the procedure.
Detroit, MichiganAges 14–89 - NCT07792317Recruiting
Cold storage treatment for donated kidneys before transplant
This study tests a special cold storage solution and machine to keep donated kidneys healthy before they are transplanted. It may help the kidneys work better after surgery.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT05940857Recruiting
Liver transplant registry using a special machine before surgery
This is a registry that collects information about liver transplant recipients. It helps researchers understand outcomes related to a specific liver “perfusion” process used around the time of transplant.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges Any age - NCT07747441Recruiting
Blood flow monitoring during day-case knee surgery
This study looks at how blood flow in your fingers relates to low blood pressure during knee surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for future patients.
Ankara, Yenimahalle\AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT06611254Recruiting
Ultrasound to see blood flow in babies getting cooling therapy
This study uses a special ultrasound with a contrast dye to look at blood flow in the brain and kidneys of newborns with birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen) during cooling treatment. It helps doctors understand how cooling affects these organs.
Erlangen, BavariaAges Any age - NCT06056635Recruiting
Study of special telescopes for fetal surgery
This study tests two types of small cameras (fetoscopes) to see how well they work for surgery on a baby before birth. Doctors want to learn if these tools can safely perform fetal procedures.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–45 - NCT07740304Recruiting
Blood flow test to predict survival in sepsis patients
This study checks if a simple blood flow measurement can help predict which patients with sepsis are at higher risk of dying within 28 days. The goal is to see if this test can guide treatment decisions in the ICU.
Edirne, MerkezAges 18 years+ - NCT07708805Recruiting
Heart blood flow imaging study
This study tests a special heart scan that measures blood flow to the heart muscle. It may help doctors decide if your heart blockages need treatment or if medication is enough.
Orléans, LoiretAges 18 years+ - NCT07705919RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MRI scans to monitor borderline resectable pancreatic cancer treatment
This study uses MRI scans to see how well chemotherapy and radiation work in people with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer – a type where surgery might be possible but is risky. The goal is to find the best way to measure tumor response so doctors can make better treatment decisions.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for perfusion?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 169 recruiting perfusion 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 perfusion 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 perfusion 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.
