This study tests a new sensor that measures brain pressure from outside the head. It is for people who are already in the hospital getting their brain pressure and blood pressure monitored continuously.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07425418Recruiting
Baby skin risk test for NICU babies
This study tests a new tool to check the risk of skin injuries (pressure injuries) in newborn babies in the neonatal intensive care unit. Your baby might be helped by better prevention and care.
Pavia, PaviaAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT07093437Recruiting
Comparing ways to secure urinary catheters in ICU patients
This study compares two methods of securing a urinary catheter to the thigh to see which works better. It's for patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who need a catheter for more than 48 hours.
BarcelonaAges 18–99 - NCT06451133Recruiting
Blood pressure management after traumatic spinal cord injury
This study tests a way to manage blood pressure after a traumatic spinal cord injury. It aims to improve blood flow to the injured area and help recovery.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06642285Recruiting
Preventing nasal injuries in preterm babies on breathing support
This study tests if using special care steps can prevent nose sores in preterm babies who need breathing support through a mask or nasal prongs. It may help protect your baby's delicate nose from injury.
Kafr ash Shaykh, Kafr el-Sheikh GovernorateAges 7 months–9 months - NCT05243966Recruiting
Registry for soft tissue repair using a special matrix
This study is a registry that collects information from people who had soft tissue repair using a specific matrix and/or morcell material. It may help researchers understand how this approach performs in real-world care and patient outcomes over time.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07699848Recruiting
Sitting actively versus passively: thinking and energy
This study compares two types of sitting to see how they affect your thinking and energy levels. It will help understand if moving while seated is better for your brain and how you feel.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT06522529Recruiting
Project to improve care with proven methods
This project helps hospital and nursing home teams improve daily care by using proven methods for hand hygiene and another health topic like pain, falls, or smoking. It’s a chance for your unit to join a quality-improvement effort that can make care safer and more effective.
MadridAges Any age - NCT07318571Recruiting
AI tool to help nurses prevent bedsores in ICU patients
This trial is for ICU nurses who already perform skin checks for pressure injuries. It tests whether an AI tool can help them assess patients' skin more accurately and consistently. The study focuses on adult ICU patients without major skin problems.
Jeddah, Mecca RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07611318Enrolling by invitation
Imaging study comparing wound infection detection methods
This study tests a new imaging device that uses fluorescence (special light) to detect bacteria and infection in wounds. Researchers will compare it to a standard method by taking small tissue samples. If you have a wound that's healing slowly, this might help doctors better understand and treat it.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06621966Enrolling by invitation
Olive oil to prevent bedsores
This trial tests whether applying olive oil to the skin can help prevent bedsores (pressure injuries) in people who have trouble moving. If you have limited mobility due to a stroke, spinal cord injury, a fracture, or multiple sclerosis, you may be able to join.
Ras al-KhaimahAges 18 years+ - NCT05305118Recruiting
Blood pressure–focused study after fresh spinal cord injury
This study looks at a treatment approach for people with a new spinal cord injury who have unstable blood pressure. It may help the team understand how to manage blood pressure problems during early recovery.
New York, New YorkAges 18–89 - NCT05725499Recruiting
Check if skin stimulation lowers blood pressure drops after spinal injury
This study tests a skin “stimulation” treatment to see if it helps stabilize blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who get low blood pressure when sitting up. If you often have dizziness, faintness, or low readings after changing positions, this trial may help find safer ways to manage it.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT03629418Recruiting
Blood-pressure strategy to prevent kidney injury after heart bypass
This trial tests a targeted way to manage blood pressure before and after off-pump heart bypass surgery, with the goal of reducing acute kidney injury (sudden kidney problems). It may help some people by lowering stress on the kidneys during and right after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 50 years+ - NCT06526598Recruiting
Breathing support tailored to your effort in the ICU
This trial tests a new way of adjusting breathing machine support based on how hard you are breathing. It may help people with low oxygen levels who need a ventilator.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07504055Recruiting
Non-invasive spinal cord stimulation for blood pressure after injury
This study tests whether a non-invasive spinal cord stimulation device can help regulate blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who have low blood pressure symptoms. It may help you feel less dizzy or faint when you sit or stand up.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT04459806Recruiting
Study dose timing to improve care for brain injury
This trial studies how to time medication or treatment doses when a person has serious brain injury, using measurements from a pressure monitor in the skull. It may help doctors manage brain swelling and pressure more effectively.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pressure injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 74 recruiting pressure injury 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 pressure injury 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 pressure injury 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.
