Preventing Pancreatitis After Shock Wave Therapy for Pancreatic Stones
This study tests whether a combination of an NSAID (indomethacin) given rectally plus extra fluids through an IV can prevent pancreatitis after shock wave therapy for pancreatic stones. It may help reduce inflammation and protect your pancreas during treatment.
BaotouAges 18–85 - NCT07511751Recruiting
Comparing treatments for myofascial pain syndrome
This trial compares three different treatments to find which works best for long-term back pain caused by myofascial pain syndrome, a condition where tight muscle knots cause pain. It is for people who have not found relief with standard treatments.
Adapazarı, SakaryaAges 18–65 - NCT07564713Recruiting
Shock Wave vs. Laser Therapy for Tennis Elbow
This study compares two non-surgical treatments for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis): extracorporeal shock wave therapy and low-level laser therapy. Both treatments aim to reduce pain and improve function in people with chronic elbow pain caused by overuse.
ÇorumAges 18–65 - NCT07027631Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two treatments for chronic neck pain
This trial tests whether magnesium sulfate iontophoresis (a method that uses a mild electrical current to deliver medicine through the skin) or extracorporeal shockwave therapy (sound waves applied to the neck) works better for long-term neck pain caused by trigger points in the upper shoulder muscle.
GizaAges 18–40 - NCT07006389Enrolling by invitation
Shock wave therapy for plantar fasciitis follow-up study
This study looks at how well shock wave therapy works for people with plantar fasciitis that hasn't improved with other treatments. If you've already had shock wave therapy 3 to 6 months ago, your experience could help doctors understand what makes the treatment effective.
IstanbulAges 18 years+ - NCT06936800Enrolling by invitation
Pinaverium Bromide to Prevent Pain After Shock Wave Treatment
This trial tests if a drug called pinaverium bromide can help prevent pancreatitis and reduce pain after a procedure that uses shock waves to break up large gallstones in the pancreas. It may be an option for people with chronic pancreatitis and stones that are at least 5 mm wide.
Jinan, Wenhuaxi RoadAges 18–85 - NCT06737601Enrolling by invitation
Shockwave or splint for trigger finger
This study compares two treatments for trigger finger: a special hand splint and shockwave therapy (a non-invasive treatment that uses sound waves to help the finger move smoothly). Researchers want to see which works better.
BariAges 18 years+ - NCT04115826Enrolling by invitation
Stones treatment comparison for chronic pancreas pain
This trial compares two ways to break and remove pancreatic duct stones in people with long-term pancreas pain caused by calcified stones. It looks to see which approach helps reduce pain more effectively and safely.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–89 - NCT06786364Recruiting
Measuring blood flow waves in sepsis patients
This study uses a special light sensor to measure blood flow waves in patients with septic shock. The goal is to see if these waves can help doctors understand how severe the shock is.
Mexico City, CuauhtemocAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for shock wave?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 57 recruiting shock wave 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 wave 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 wave 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.
