Brain stimulation for opioid recovery
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS to see if it can reduce opioid cravings and help people who are already taking buprenorphine stay in recovery. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate parts of the brain involved in addiction.
Brentwood, TennesseeAges 18–65 - NCT07456020Recruiting
Measuring awareness after brain injury in the ICU
This study checks how awake and aware you are using two standard checklists (CRS-R and SECONDs). It's for people with recent brain injuries in intensive care who are still very dependent.
Hessisch Oldendorf, Lower SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT04646707Recruiting
Nerve block to reduce opioid use after neck spine surgery
This trial tests whether a targeted back/neck numbing injection (an erector spinae block) can help reduce the amount of opioid pain medicine needed after posterior cervical spine surgery. It also aims to support an “enhanced recovery” pathway so patients may recover more comfortably and potentially faster.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–80 - NCT07446647RecruitingPhase 1
Tracking Labeled Red Blood Cells After Transfusion
This study tests a special way to label your own red blood cells so doctors can track how long they survive in your body. It helps improve how we measure blood cell recovery after transfusion.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06803368Recruiting
Recovery and maintenance strategies for chronic hepatitis B
This trial is for people with chronic hepatitis B who have already cleared the virus with interferon treatment. It tests ongoing strategies to help maintain their health and prevent the virus from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–65 - NCT06107010Recruiting
Robotic exoskeleton for walking after stroke
This trial tests a robotic exoskeleton (Atalante) to help people who have had a stroke and have trouble walking. It looks at whether using the device early (1–4 months after stroke) can improve the ability to walk again.
CréteilAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07439367Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation to help people with arm weakness after a stroke improve their movement and daily function.
Carouge, Canton of GenevaAges 18 years+ - NCT07439783Enrolling by invitation
Testing a training program to improve staff retention in child welfare
This trial tests a new training model designed to help keep child welfare supervisors and their teams (including case workers and peer supporters) happy and on the job, so they can better help families. It focuses on agencies that are part of Ohio START.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07435792Enrolling by invitation
Studying muscle relaxant recovery with a new device
This trial uses a device called TetraGraph to measure how quickly a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works and wears off during surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for patients who need this medicine.
Columbus, OhioAges 1 month+ - NCT07444099Enrolling by invitation
Early treatment after surgery for stomach cancer patients
This trial tests an early treatment plan after stomach cancer surgery. It is for people who completed chemotherapy before surgery without serious side effects and had a short hospital stay.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–80 - NCT07433686Recruiting
Saskatoon Berry Juice for Muscle Recovery
This trial tests whether Saskatoon berry juice helps muscles recover after exercise. It involves healthy adults aged 18–35 who can exercise safely.
Saskatoon, SaskatchewanAges 18–35 - NCT07430228Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Can oxytocin help you recover faster after hip replacement?
This study tests if a medicine called oxytocin, given through a vein during surgery, can help people recover more quickly after a total hip replacement. It is for adults in generally good health who are scheduled for a first-time hip replacement.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18–75 - NCT07429955Recruiting
Study on muscle and recovery after hip surgery in older adults
This trial looks at how muscle health affects your ability to get back to normal activities after hip replacement surgery for a broken hip or severe arthritis. By using MRI scans and other tests, researchers hope to understand if having less muscle makes recovery harder.
MontpellierAges 75 years+ - NCT06701474Recruiting
Knee replacement recovery: comparing body composition groups
This study looks at how well people recover after total knee replacement, comparing those with different body composition levels. The goal is to see if a measure called 'phase angle' affects recovery of strength and function.
Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 55 years+ - NCT06778811RecruitingPhase 4
Sleep quality study for heart surgery patients
This trial studies sleep problems before and after heart surgery. It tests two medicines to see if they can help improve sleep. This may help you recover better after surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 40–75 - NCT05418647Recruiting
Changing dialysis salt level to improve recovery time
This trial compares two different salt (sodium) levels in the dialysis fluid to see which one helps people recover better after hemodialysis. If you meet the study’s dialysis schedule and health requirements, your team may assign you to one of the sodium levels during treatments.
AlexandriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07423910Recruiting
Numbing injections for better recovery after hernia surgery
This study looks at two types of numbing injections (TAP and RS blocks) to see which helps people recover better after groin hernia surgery. If you are having a planned single-side hernia repair, you might qualify to join.
TampereAges 18 years+ - NCT07421869Recruiting

Better recovery plan for draining brain blood clots
This trial is testing a new, step-by-step care plan (called an enhanced recovery pathway) for people who need a small hole drilled in their skull to drain a slow-growing blood clot (chronic subdural hematoma). The goal is to see if this organized approach helps patients recover faster and feel better.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for recovery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 700 recruiting recovery 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 recovery 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 recovery 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.
