- NCT06957236Enrolling by invitation
NICE Procedure for Benign Colon Disease
This trial tests a new minimally invasive surgery called the NICE procedure for treating benign left-sided colon diseases like diverticulitis or benign polyps. It aims to see if this approach leads to fewer infections and better recovery compared to standard surgery.

Antibiotic trial for severe open fractures of the leg or foot
This trial tests a new way of giving antibiotics to people with severe open fractures in the leg, ankle, or foot. The goal is to see if it helps prevent infections after surgery.

Testing how long to give antibiotics after heart surgery
This study looks at how long patients should receive an antibiotic after certain types of heart surgery, to help prevent infections. It may help find the best “duration” of antibiotic prophylaxis after surgery through the breastbone (median sternotomy).

What taking part in a surgical site infection study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
