Person-centered online rehab for chronic pain on sick leave
This trial tests an early, personalized (person-centered) rehabilitation program delivered through eHealth to help people living with long-term non-cancer pain. It may help reduce pain impact and improve function while you are on sick leave from work.
GothenburgAges 18–65 - NCT04715581Recruiting
Pre-surgery rehab program for frail older adults having stomach surgery
This trial studies a “prehabilitation” program—exercise and coaching before surgery—to help frail older adults recover better after major digestive cancer surgery. It may help you strengthen your body and function before the operation, which can improve outcomes after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65–89 - NCT04770233Recruiting
Comparing early surgery options for torn ACL
This study looks at the best way to treat a fresh ACL (an important knee ligament) tear by comparing an “early surgery” plan that starts within 12 weeks. It may help guide care and recovery for people who are able to do both the surgery and the follow-up rehabilitation.
Lørenskog, AkershusAges 16–50 - NCT04783155Recruiting
Breathing training after lung transplant at Mayo Clinic
This trial studies whether inspiratory muscle training (exercises to strengthen the breathing muscles) improves recovery and other health outcomes after a single- or double-lung transplant. It may help see if adding breathing exercises makes day-to-day function better and supports clinical recovery.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04789616RecruitingPhase 2
Maraviroc plus stroke rehab to improve recovery
This study tests whether maraviroc (or a placebo) given soon after an ischemic stroke can improve how well people recover with inpatient rehabilitation. It may help some stroke survivors regain arm and/or leg function faster with the usual rehab therapies.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT04791540Recruiting
Rehab study for people with a tracheostomy and low muscle strength
This study looks at how nutrition and muscle health affect recovery during rehabilitation for people who have a tracheostomy (a breathing opening in the neck). It may help the rehab team improve food and care plans to support strength and overall health.
Florence, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT04796506Recruiting
Tracking sleep changes to improve thinking in Parkinson’s
This study looks at whether changes in “slow wave sleep” (a deep sleep stage) match improvements in thinking for people with Parkinson’s. It uses an exercise/recovery-focused approach and checks sleep and thinking scores to see if these changes go together.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 45–100 - NCT04809064Recruiting
Compare open vs arthroscopic surgery for unstable shoulder with bone loss
This trial compares two surgery approaches for people with a traumatic, unstable (dislocating) shoulder when they also have moderate bone loss. It may help identify which method restores stability better and with fewer problems for the right patients.
Tempe, ArizonaAges 17–50 - NCT04837105Recruiting
Game-based training to help children walk better with cerebral palsy
This study tests whether a serious video game can improve walking and movement in children with cerebral palsy. It may help your child practice safer, more effective walking skills through guided play.
Saint-Fargeau-Ponthierry, Île-de-France RegionAges 10–18 - NCT04851886Recruiting
Vision tool to guide robot therapy for stroke arm posture
This trial tests a vision-based system that detects your arm and posture during robot-assisted upper-arm therapy after a prior stroke. It may help the robot guide treatment more safely and accurately based on your movements and positioning.
Charlestown, MassachusettsAges 18–80 - NCT04855825Recruiting
Wearable robotic exoskeleton to improve walking and thinking in MS
This study tests a wearable robotic exoskeleton to help people with multiple sclerosis walk better and improve thinking/problem-solving. You would use the device during supervised sessions and take brief thinking and movement checks to see if it’s safe and helpful for you.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT04875052Recruiting
Study vibration after ACL injury and future arthritis risk
This study looks at whether using vibration after an ACL injury helps predict or reduce the risk of developing post-traumatic osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis) later. It may help researchers learn which patients are more likely to develop arthritis after ACL reconstruction.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 16–35 - NCT04877444RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Exercise program to improve arm recovery after stroke
This early-stage trial tests a special exercise approach meant to “prime” the brain and improve arm movement after a stroke. You may be eligible if you’re 6+ months out from a one-sided stroke and can safely do an exercise test.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 50–90 - NCT04897334Recruiting
Brain stimulation plus rehab to improve thinking after stroke
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment, combined with rehabilitation, can improve thinking and other “neurocognition” problems after a recent stroke. It may help people whose thinking has been affected by stroke within the past month.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18–90 - NCT07698405Recruiting
Advanced rehab technology for arm recovery after stroke
This study tests whether advanced technology-based rehabilitation can help people who have had a stroke regain movement and use of their affected arm. It may be a good option if you have had a single stroke and still have some arm weakness but no severe muscle tightness or memory problems.
Fiorenzuola d'Arda, PiacenzaAges 18 years+ - NCT04187131Recruiting
AR brain tests and rehab for stroke neglect
This trial tests an augmented reality (AR) system to find and treat “neglect” after an acute stroke. If you qualify, it may help assess attention problems and guide rehabilitation exercises.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06787729Recruiting
Using sensors and a smartphone to help arm recovery after stroke
This study tests if wearing small sensors on your arm at home and using a smartphone app can help improve how you use your weaker arm after a stroke. It is designed for people who are at least a year past their stroke and want to take an active role in their recovery.
