Recruiting studies
- NCT05327829RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a brain-stimulation approach after concussion recovery
This early study tests whether a brain-stimulation method can help after recovery from a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), sometimes called concussion. It also may include healthy volunteers to compare safety and computer-based brain measures.

This trial tests whether supervised exercise (before surgery) can help people with advanced ovarian cancer get ready for treatment. It’s meant to improve readiness and safety during the time leading up to surgery.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05369520Recruiting
Noninvasive spinal stimulation to improve bladder and autonomic function
This trial tests a noninvasive way to stimulate the spinal cord to help the body’s “automatic functions” (like bladder, bowel, and sexual function) after spinal cord injury. If you’ve had a stable, complete spinal cord injury for more than a year, you may be eligible to try this approach and help researchers evaluate recovery.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 19–60 - NCT05375292Recruiting
Pre-surgery fitness program for recovery after aneurysm surgery
This study tests whether a supervised “prehabilitation” program before planned open surgery helps you recover better after abdominal aortic aneurysm surgery. It’s mainly about improving outcomes when you have time to prepare for at least 6 weeks.
ToulouseAges 18–100 - NCT05379673Recruiting
Breathing changes with extra oxygen after surgery
This study looks at whether giving extra oxygen during recovery from general anesthesia changes how you breathe after surgery. You may be offered different oxygen levels around the time you wake up to see what helps your breathing most comfortably.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT05379738Recruiting
Exercise program to aid recovery after donor stem cell transplant
This trial tests whether an adapted physical activity (tailored exercise) can help people recover after a donor stem cell transplant for blood cancers. If you’re able to participate, the program may support strength, well-being, and recovery during the transplant process.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT05393492Recruiting
Emotion and behavior skills after a brain injury
This study tests a structured program to help people after a brain injury manage emotions and challenging behaviors, and to reduce distress for them and their families. If you (or your family member) can participate safely and understand the activities in French, you may be invited to join a group and assessments.
Illkirch-GraffenstadenAges 18 years+ - NCT05402761Recruiting
Nurse-guided sleep program for insomnia after brain injury
This trial studies whether nurse-guided behavioral sleep therapy can improve insomnia in people recovering after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help you sleep better by targeting sleep habits and insomnia symptoms.
TaipeiAges 20–65 - NCT05402488Recruiting
Studying sleep recovery in adults with neurodegeneration
This study looks at how sleep “recovery” works in people with neurodegenerative diseases (conditions where abnormal proteins build up). It uses sleep recordings and sounds during sleep to see how sleep patterns relate to outcomes.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges 18 years+ - NCT05428228Recruiting
Hydration drink study in healthy adults
This study tests two new hydration drink formulas to see how well they rehydrate healthy adults. It’s mainly about measuring how your body responds after drinking the study products during visits.
Memphis, TennesseeAges 18–35 - NCT05434130RecruitingPhase 2
Testing the right exercise amount to help concussion recovery
This study tests whether adjusting how much exercise you do can improve recovery after a concussion. You may be screened to make sure symptoms are still present, and then assigned to an exercise plan that matches the study’s goals.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 13–18 - NCT05442710RecruitingPhase 2
Immune cell treatment for recovery from severe septic shock
This trial tests an immune-cell treatment given outside the body to help people recover from septic shock, a life-threatening reaction to infection. It aims to improve survival and organ recovery in patients who are still very ill despite standard care.
Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05497115Recruiting
Care model to improve access to mental health after trauma
This trial tests a practical care plan to help people get mental health support after a traumatic injury, especially if screening suggests risk for PTSD or depression. It may help you connect faster to the right kind of treatment after your injury.
Washington, VirginiaAges 16 years+ - NCT05516862Recruiting
Find the best acupuncture for PTSD recovery
This trial tests different kinds of acupuncture to help people with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder). It aims to find which acupuncture approach leads to better recovery over the study period.
Nellis Air Force Base, NevadaAges 18–74 - NCT05526417Recruiting
Prehab program before treatment for deep leg soft tissue cancer
This trial tests an individualized “prehab” program (exercises and preparation before treatment) to improve recovery and surgical outcomes for adults with deep soft tissue sarcoma in the leg. It’s meant to help your body be as ready as possible for radiotherapy and surgery.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05528484Recruiting
ERAS nursing study using patient-reported outcomes
This study looks at how patients feel and report their recovery during a minimally invasive planned surgery, when special “ERAS” nursing care is used. It may help improve nursing support and recovery experiences for future patients.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–85 - NCT05536076Recruiting
Breathing treatment to help recovery after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether a breathing-support treatment (for abnormal breathing during sleep) can improve breathing recovery in people living with a spinal cord injury. It aims to see if treating higher carbon dioxide levels and sleep-breathing problems leads to better breathing and recovery.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–89 - NCT05537298Recruiting
Help for muscle recovery after serious ICU illness
This trial looks at how to improve muscle strength and function after a stay in the ICU for sepsis or acute respiratory failure. If you recover from the illness but your muscles become weak, this study may test an approach to help rebuild strength faster.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05563103Recruiting
Combination therapy to improve spinal cord injury recovery
This trial studies a combination of treatments to help people with certain types of spinal cord injury regain some movement and feeling over time. If you meet the specific injury and health criteria, you may be asked to do simple walking and assessment tests during treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–70 - NCT05591196Recruiting
Electrical spinal stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke
This study tests a non-invasive electrical stimulation treatment meant to help people regain hand and arm movement after a stroke. You would attend frequent therapy-style sessions, and the team would track your arm function over about eight months.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 21–80 - NCT05600374Recruiting
Brain stimulation timed to brain rhythms after recent stroke
This trial tests a special brain-stimulation approach that targets your brain’s natural 8–12 Hz rhythm to improve arm and hand recovery after stroke. It’s designed for people in the early days after an ischemic stroke, when motor recovery is still changing quickly.
Frankfurt a.M., Frankfurt a.M.Ages 18 years+ - NCT05627440Recruiting
Protein diet program to improve muscle strength in heart failure
