Recruiting studies
- NCT07411469Recruiting
Comparing heart monitoring methods in sepsis patients
This study compares two methods to measure fluid responsiveness in patients with sepsis and hypotension: cardiometry (non-invasive heart monitoring) and ultrasound of the IVC vein. The goal is to find a simpler way to guide treatment.

Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06839404Recruiting
Fluid bolus effect on heart and blood flow
This study looks at how a standard IV fluid bolus affects blood flow and heart function in ICU patients. It aims to better understand the body's response to this common treatment.

CPR and life support before hospital in Ostrava
This trial is testing a way to start CPR and emergency life support (ECPR) at the scene of a cardiac arrest in Ostrava. It might help if you or a loved one has a witnessed cardiac arrest that is likely caused by a heart problem, and you're under 70 years old.

Finger sensor guided fluids for skin health in older ICU patients
This study tests if using a finger sensor to guide fluid therapy can prevent skin failure in older ICU patients with sepsis or shock. It compares usual care to personalized fluid management.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 65 years+ - NCT05634109RecruitingPhase 3
Whole blood to treat adults with severe bleeding trauma
This trial compares giving whole blood versus standard care in adults with severe trauma and dangerous blood loss (hemorrhagic shock). The goal is to see if whole blood helps stabilize patients faster and improves outcomes after major bleeding.
Cali, Valle del Cauca DepartmentAges 18 years+ - NCT06162247Recruiting
Registry study for heart patients in intensive care
This study tracks patients with sudden heart problems admitted to a special heart intensive care unit. It helps doctors learn more about these conditions to improve future care.
NaplesAges 18 years+ - NCT07343206Recruiting
Early norepinephrine for sepsis with low blood pressure
This trial tests whether giving a medicine called norepinephrine early and adjusting the dose quickly can help people with sepsis who have very low blood pressure. It is for adults who are diagnosed within the last 3 hours and who have not already received this medicine.
Bangkok Noi, BangkokAges 18 years+ - NCT06825039Recruiting
Shock wave therapy for belly tuck and breast reduction scars
This study tests if shock wave therapy can improve the appearance and feel of scars after tummy tuck or breast reduction surgery. If you have a scar from belly tuck surgery, you may be able to join.
Antwerp, AntwerpAges 18–80 - NCT05225402Recruiting
Testing blood-flow measurements in ICU shock patients
This trial studies how blood flow and organ “perfusion” look in ICU patients who are struggling with infection and low blood pressure. It may help doctors better measure and manage shock by comparing hemodynamic readings during standard treatment.
Hvidovre, CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07322133RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two blood pressure medicines for newborns with lung hypertension
This trial compares two medicines (dopamine and norepinephrine) to see which works better for raising blood pressure in newborns who have both low blood pressure and high blood pressure in the lungs. Both medicines are given through a vein to help stabilize your baby's blood pressure.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT07286643Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided sepsis care for patients with cirrhosis
This study tests whether using a special ultrasound of the heart can guide treatment for sepsis-related low blood pressure in patients with cirrhosis. It aims to improve care and outcomes for critically ill patients.
ChandigarhAges 18–65 - NCT07273643Recruiting
Studying tiny particles in cord blood of very premature babies
This study looks at microscopic particles called extracellular vesicles in the umbilical cord blood of babies born before 28 weeks. Researchers want to see if these particles can help predict severe health problems or death, and eventually improve care for extremely premature newborns.
MontpellierAges birth–3 months - NCT07264543RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Early methylene blue for blood flow in sepsis
This trial tests if giving methylene blue early can improve blood flow in patients with sepsis who still have low blood pressure despite fluids and are on high doses of noradrenaline. It aims to help stabilize their condition.
Curitiba, ParanáAges 18 years+ - NCT06898723RecruitingPhase 4
Shenfu injection to prevent heart problems in sepsis
This trial tests whether Shenfu injection can help prevent heart muscle damage in people with septic shock. If you have septic shock, you may be able to join this study to see if this treatment helps protect your heart.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT07255469Recruiting
Fluid response test in children after heart surgery
This trial tests how well the body responds to a fluid bolus in children who have just had heart surgery. It uses blood gas tests and maybe an ultrasound to guide treatment.
Bron, FranceAges birth–15 years - NCT05903170Recruiting
Shock energy study for heart rhythm conversion in atrial fibrillation
This trial tests whether using a specific “shock energy” during electrical cardioversion works safely and effectively for people with persistent atrial fibrillation. You might be eligible if your cardioversion is planned (not an emergency) and your doctors determine you can safely take blood thinners.
Wellington, Wellington RegionAges 18 years+ - NCT07230041Recruiting
Antibiotic removal during kidney therapy in the ICU
This trial studies how much certain antibiotics (meropenem, linezolid, and daptomycin) are removed when you're on a special blood-filtering machine called continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) for severe kidney injury. The results could help doctors give the right dose of antibiotics to treat infections effectively.
Milan, ItaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07218185Enrolling by invitation
Fibrinogen treatment for severe bleeding after trauma
This study tests an investigational treatment called INTERCEPT Fibrinogen Complex (IFC) for people with severe bleeding after a traumatic injury. The treatment helps restore a key blood-clotting protein to try to stop the bleeding and improve survival.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06915974Recruiting
Comparing Blood Tests for Sepsis in Burn ICU Patients
This study is comparing two blood tests (Interleukin 6 and Procalcitonin) to find which is better at detecting sepsis (a serious infection) and predicting the risk of death in burn patients in the ICU. If you have moderate burns and are otherwise healthy, this trial could help improve care for burn victims.
CairoAges 25–60 - NCT07212686Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Angiotensin II for severe low blood pressure in children
This study tests an IV medicine called angiotensin II (Giapreza) to raise blood pressure in children who are very sick and not responding to standard treatments. It aims to see if this medicine can help stabilize blood pressure and improve outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for shock?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 313 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.
