Recruiting studies
- NCT07529301Recruiting
Lung Function Tests Before Surgery to Predict Recovery
This study measures your lung function and physical fitness before surgery to see if these tests can predict how quickly you'll recover. The researchers want to understand which patients might have an easier or harder recovery after their operation.
MalatyaAges 18–80 - NCT06204926Recruiting

This trial tests if an AI program can predict complications and recovery after SMILE eye surgery for nearsightedness. It may help you understand your risks if you are a candidate for this surgery.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–45 - NCT06989229Recruiting
Nutritional care before and after joint replacement surgery
This trial tests if special nutritional support before and after hip or knee replacement helps you recover faster. It is for people having planned (not emergency) surgery.
Brno, CzechiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07588178Recruiting
Sleep Problems Before Heart Surgery: Study on Recovery
This research examines how sleep issues before heart surgery may affect how well patients recover afterward. Researchers will study blood markers and chemical changes to better understand this connection and potentially improve surgical outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07547774Recruiting
Sleep Quality Before Breast Surgery and Recovery Outcomes
This study examines how well you sleep before breast cancer surgery and whether it affects your recovery afterward. Researchers will ask about your sleep habits and track your healing to understand the connection.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–70 - NCT07440667Recruiting
Fluid amounts during planned C-section and recovery
This trial compares giving less fluid versus more fluid during planned C-section surgery to see which approach leads to better recovery afterward.
Niğde, MerkezAges 18–45 - NCT06468852Recruiting
Fluid management during head and neck cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a specific way of giving fluids during surgery (called goal-directed fluid therapy) can improve recovery after head and neck cancer surgery. It involves having a small tube in your artery to closely watch your blood pressure.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03209674Recruiting
Registry tracking outcomes after heart and chest surgery
This is a registry that collects information from people who have heart or chest (thoracic) surgery. It may help doctors understand what improves outcomes after surgery, but it usually does not test a new drug.
Neuilly-sur-Seine, Île-de-France RegionAges Any age - NCT06785389Recruiting
How fear before surgery affects pain and recovery
This study looks at how feeling scared or anxious before surgery might affect your pain and recovery afterward. It aims to help improve care for future patients.
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Las PalmasAges 18 years+ - NCT05257434Recruiting
Body composition test after liver, bile duct, or pancreas cancer surgery
This study looks at how well people do after surgery for liver, bile duct, or pancreas cancer, using a body composition test (the “inBody” test). It may help doctors understand which body changes after surgery are linked to better or worse recovery.
KochiAges 18–90 - NCT07817758Recruiting
Sarcopenia and surgery outcomes in older gastrointestinal cancer patients
This trial looks at whether low muscle mass (sarcopenia) before surgery affects recovery for older adults with gastrointestinal cancer. It may help doctors personalize care and improve outcomes.
Van, VanAges 60 years+ - NCT07815392Recruiting
Frailty and recovery after gastrointestinal cancer surgery
This study looks at how frailty, or overall physical weakness, affects recovery after surgery for gastrointestinal cancer in people aged 60 and older. The findings may help doctors better prepare patients for surgery and improve their recovery.
Van, VanAges 60 years+ - NCT07627425Enrolling by invitation
Staples vs. Sutures for Hernia Repair Mesh
This trial compares two methods of attaching mesh during hernia surgery—staples versus sutures—to see which leads to better healing and fewer problems after surgery. You'd have a 50/50 chance of receiving either method.
KarachiAges 18–75 - NCT06377449Recruiting
Lung ultrasound for better outcomes after heart surgery
This study tests whether using ultrasound to look at the lungs during and after heart surgery helps improve recovery. You may be eligible if you are having open-heart surgery with a heart-lung machine and meet certain health criteria.
Saint Petersburg, Sankt-PeterburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06723327Recruiting
How urine culture timing affects kidney stone surgery results
This study checks if taking a urine culture two weeks before kidney stone surgery affects outcomes. It may help ensure your surgery goes smoothly by confirming your urine is free of infection.
TekirdağAges 18 years+ - NCT07550907Recruiting
Cataract Surgery Outcomes and Surgical Technique Study
This study examines how different surgical approaches during cataract removal affect your vision and eye health after surgery. If you need cataract surgery, this trial may help doctors understand which techniques work best for patients like you.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 50–90 - NCT07535281Recruiting
Kidney Stone Surgery Technique and Recovery Study
This study tests a technique during kidney stone removal surgery (RIRS) where the surgeon fully drains the kidney system at the end of the procedure. Researchers want to see if this approach improves how quickly patients recover and reduces complications.
Gandong-gu, Outside U.S./CanadaAges 20–80 - NCT07519057Recruiting
Carbohydrate drink before liver transplant surgery
This study tests whether drinking a carbohydrate solution before planned liver transplant surgery helps patients recover better afterward. Researchers believe it may reduce complications and improve healing.
WarsawAges 18 years+ - NCT07519733Recruiting
Exercise Testing Before High-Risk Surgery
This study tests whether a simple exercise test before surgery can help doctors better predict and prevent complications in older adults undergoing major operations. You'll do a gentle exercise test on a stationary bike or treadmill to measure your fitness level.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 45 years+ - NCT07480343Enrolling by invitation
Five-year follow-up after CREST glaucoma study
This study follows up with people who finished the CREST study to check how their eyes are doing 5 years later. It looks at the long-term results of a prior glaucoma treatment.
Newport Beach, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07452042Recruiting
Add-on lens for astigmatism after corneal transplant and cataract surgery
This trial tests a special add-on lens for people who have already had a corneal transplant and cataract surgery, to improve vision by correcting astigmatism. It may help reduce the need for glasses or contacts after these procedures.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 45–95 - NCT07443072Recruiting
Heart rate and brain waves to predict recovery after brain surgery
This study monitors your heart rate and brain waves during and after brain surgery to see if they can help doctors predict how well you will recover. It aims to improve care for future patients.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT07425496Recruiting
Eye fluid dynamics study during surgery
This trial measures eye fluid flow during cataract or glaucoma surgery. It aims to help doctors predict and improve surgery results.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07367828Recruiting
Frailty screening for older adults before surgery
This study tests how well simple frailty screening tools predict recovery and complications after major surgery in people aged 70 and older. The goal is to help doctors and patients better understand surgical risks.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for postoperative outcomes?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 79 recruiting postoperative outcomes 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 postoperative outcomes 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 postoperative outcomes 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.
