This study tests whether using bright morning light can improve sleep quality in veterans. You may be able to join if you’re not already using a light box and you don’t have certain eye or mood conditions.
Portand, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT05097261RecruitingPhase 4
Ketamine for adults with severe brain injury in the ICU
This trial studies whether ketamine can improve outcomes for adults with severe traumatic brain injury when they are in the ICU and need sedation. It focuses on patients who have pressure monitoring inside the brain soon after admission.
BonheidenAges 18 years+ - NCT05929833Enrolling by invitation
Brain injury education program for recovery at home
This study tests a recovery-focused brain injury education and support program for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI) who plan to go home after hospital stay. If you qualify, you and a caregiver/friend may get training and therapy support aimed at improving recovery.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06073886RecruitingPhase 2
Better brain stimulation for long-lasting concussion symptoms
This trial tests whether personalized brain stimulation can help people who have ongoing symptoms more than 20 on a standard concussion scale, such as headaches, dizziness, or trouble concentrating, after a mild head injury in the past year.
Westwood, Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT06828653Recruiting
Comparing 3D-printed vs standard ankle braces for walking
This study compares custom-made ankle-foot braces made with a digital 3D printing method versus the traditional plaster cast method. It aims to find out which type is more comfortable and effective for people with conditions like cerebral palsy, stroke, or spinal cord injury who need a brace to help them walk better.
Mississauga, OntarioAges 8 years+ - NCT03233646Recruiting
Retina scans in memory and nerve disorders
This study uses pictures of the back of your eye (retinal imaging) to look for differences in people with neurodegenerative diseases and compares them with people without these conditions. It may help researchers understand eye changes that could connect to brain or nerve health.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04521881RecruitingPhase 3
Testing an antifibrinolytic for mild head injury in older adults
This study tests whether an anti-bleeding medicine (given to reduce unwanted clot breakdown) can improve outcomes after a mild head injury in people 50 and older. It is looking for patients who arrive quickly after injury and have certain symptoms like brief loss of consciousness, confusion, or nausea.
London, LondonAges 50 years+ - NCT04855396Recruiting
Study of blood markers during hyperbaric oxygen brain injury care
This trial looks at blood “biomarkers,” or lab measurements, while people receive hyperbaric oxygen treatment for brain injury as part of the main HOBIT study. It may help researchers understand who benefits and why by improving how treatment responses are tracked.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 16–65 - NCT05065450Recruiting
Testing whether brain stimulation improves memory in epilepsy
This trial looks at ways to improve memory by targeting specific deep brain areas in people with epilepsy. You may be eligible if you are already scheduled for long-term video monitoring with implanted depth electrodes in the memory-related regions (amygdala, hippocampus, and nearby areas).

- Are there clinical trials for traumatic injury?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 367 recruiting traumatic injury 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 traumatic injury 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 traumatic injury 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.
