Shockwave therapy for knee tendon pain
This study tests whether a noninvasive treatment called shockwave therapy can help reduce pain and improve function in people with patellar tendinitis, a common overuse injury of the knee tendon. It may be a good option for you if you have moderate knee pain and are otherwise healthy.

Early blood-pressure support in the emergency department
This Phase 3 study tests whether starting a blood-pressure medicine earlier in the emergency room can improve outcomes for people with low blood pressure or shock. It focuses on patients who have already received enough IV fluids and meet specific blood pressure and lab findings.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06587412Recruiting
Shock Wave Therapy for Chronic Tennis Elbow
This trial tests if shock wave therapy can help people with long-term tennis elbow (pain on the outside of the elbow lasting more than 3 months). The treatment is a non-invasive option that may reduce pain and improve function.
Alcalá de Henares, MadridAges 18–70 - NCT07354568Recruiting
Mixed heart and blood vessel shock study
This study looks at people with a severe type of shock that affects both the heart and blood vessels, treated in the intensive care unit. It aims to understand how these patients recover and what factors impact their survival.
Amiens, SommeAges 18 years+ - NCT03378739Recruiting
Registry study for cardiogenic shock care at Inova
This study collects information about how cardiogenic shock is treated in the hospital at Inova (for sudden worsening heart failure or a heart attack). It may help improve care for future patients, because the research team will learn what treatments and outcomes are associated with different situations.
Falls Church, VirginiaAges 18–85 - NCT07616817Enrolling by invitation
Expert Panel Study on Ultrasound Assessment of Septic Shock
This study gathers expert opinions from critical care doctors and specialists around the world who use bedside ultrasound (a portable imaging tool) to diagnose and categorize septic shock (a life-threatening infection condition). The goal is to develop standardized approaches to identifying different types of septic shock using ultrasound.
Albany, New YorkAges Any age - NCT07090382Enrolling by invitation
Predicting shock risk in heart attack patients
This study uses an AI tool to predict which patients with a heart attack might develop cardiogenic shock, a serious complication where the heart can't pump enough blood. It aims to help doctors identify high-risk patients early.
BratislavaAges 18 years+ - NCT07750080Recruiting
Comparing two therapies for tennis elbow in menopausal women
This study tests whether a combination of electrical therapies or shock wave therapy works better for reducing pain and improving function in menopausal women with tennis elbow that has lasted at least 3 months.
CairoAges 45–55 - NCT07468734Recruiting
Shock wave vs. physical therapy for knee arthritis
This study compares two treatments for chronic knee osteoarthritis: shock wave therapy and traditional physical therapy. The goal is to see which one helps reduce pain and improve function better.
CairoAges 40 years+ - NCT04748796RecruitingPhase 3
Landiolol to prevent death in ventilated septic shock patients
This trial tests whether landiolol (a short-acting heart-rate–lowering medicine) can reduce deaths compared with standard care in people in septic shock who have a fast heart rate and strong heart pumping. It is meant for a very specific type of critically ill patient while they are on a breathing machine.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT04750070RecruitingPhase 3
Treating shock in young children with severe malnutrition and diarrhea
This study tests a treatment approach to help children who are in “shock” (their body is struggling to maintain blood flow and oxygen) caused by diarrhea and severe undernutrition. It may help care teams stabilize children faster and improve outcomes.
DhakaAges 1 month–4.9 years - NCT05465200Recruiting
Study for cardiogenic shock treatment in adults under 24 hours
This trial is testing a treatment approach for adults with cardiogenic shock, a life-threatening condition where the heart can’t pump enough blood. You may be considered if your shock started within the last 24 hours and you meet other safety criteria.
WroclawAges 18–60 - NCT05969275RecruitingPhase 2
Cell therapy trial for infection-related septic shock in ICU
This Phase 2 trial tests an immune-boosting cell therapy (umbilical mesenchymal stromal cells) in people with septic shock—when infection causes dangerous stress on the heart and other organs. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve outcomes compared with standard care.
Ottawa, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06062303Recruiting
Capillary refill time to guide septic shock treatment
This trial tests a new way of giving fluids and medicines to people with septic shock. It focuses on a simple sign called capillary refill time (how fast color returns when you press a fingernail) to guide treatment, aiming to improve recovery.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT06102304Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for pinched nerve in neck
This study tests whether focused shock waves (sound waves) can improve muscle and nerve function in people with neck pain caused by a pinched nerve in the lower neck. The treatment is painless and non-invasive, and aims to reduce pain and improve arm function.
Giza, DokkiAges 36–46 - NCT06124599Recruiting
Early signs of menstrual toxic shock syndrome
This study looks at what happens in the days just before menstrual toxic shock syndrome starts. If you are a young woman who uses tampons or cups and recently got very sick with fever, rash, and low blood pressure during your period, you may be able to join as a case participant.
LyonAges 13–30 - NCT06454734Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for leg lymphedema
This trial tests if shock wave therapy can help reduce leg swelling caused by lymphedema. It is for people with moderate to severe swelling that has affected at least the knee to foot area for 6 months or longer.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06809868Recruiting
Study of genetic elements in sepsis and aging
This trial looks at how certain genetic elements may affect the immune system in older adults with sepsis. It aims to understand why older patients may respond differently to severe infections.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06937918Recruiting
Fluid management guide for septic shock patients
This study tests a computer software that helps doctors decide how much fluid to give patients in septic shock. It aims to improve blood pressure and oxygen delivery without causing fluid overload.
Bangkok Noi, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT07085221Recruiting
Remote monitoring for early cardiogenic shock recovery
This trial tests whether digital out-of-hospital management improves outcomes for patients who have recovered from early-stage cardiogenic shock. If you have been discharged after treatment for this condition and can use a smartphone, you may be eligible.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18 years+ - NCT07203833Recruiting
Vasorin test for shock diagnosis and outlook
This study looks at a protein called vasorin in the blood to see if it can help diagnose and predict outcomes in people with severe shock in the ICU. It compares patients with septic shock (caused by infection) to those with shock from other causes.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07255378Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for shock?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 329 recruiting shock 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 shock 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 shock 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.
