This trial tests whether a special nerve stimulation guided by ultrasound can improve movement speed in CrossFit practitioners. It may help you perform better and avoid injuries.
Murcia, MurciaAges 18–60 - NCT06341062Recruiting
Ultrasound test for kidney injury in the ICU
This study tests whether a special ultrasound with a contrast dye can help doctors better assess acute kidney injury (a sudden drop in kidney function) in patients in the intensive care unit. If you or your loved one has been diagnosed with acute kidney injury within 24 hours of ICU admission, this imaging test may help guide care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06391086Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for arm recovery after recent stroke
This study tests if focused ultrasound (a noninvasive sound wave therapy) can help improve arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. It is for people whose stroke occurred within the last three months and who still have some arm weakness.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06415916Recruiting
Ultrasound to check fluid needs in the ICU
This study uses ultrasound to see if patients in the intensive care unit need additional fluids. It aims to help doctors decide when to give fluids more accurately.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT06460142Recruiting
Biomarker study for giant cell arteritis and polymyalgia rheumatica
This study is looking for biomarkers (biological clues) in people with newly diagnosed or flaring giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). Participating may help researchers find better ways to diagnose and monitor these conditions.
Bonn, North Rhine-WestphaliaAges 18 years+ - NCT06880016Recruiting
Lung ultrasound after surfactant in preterm babies
This study uses lung ultrasound to see how different ways of giving surfactant (a medicine for breathing problems) affect preterm babies born before 32 weeks. It may help doctors choose the best method for your baby.
Konya, KaratayAges 1 day–5 days - NCT06501846Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided womb lining biopsy for postmenopausal bleeding
This trial tests a new way to take a small sample of the womb lining (biopsy) using a thin, flexible tube guided by ultrasound. The goal is to see if ultrasound guidance makes the biopsy more accurate and comfortable in people with post-menopausal bleeding.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06553716Recruiting
Shoulder injection for frozen shoulder: a trial
This trial tests whether an ultrasound-guided injection of fluid and a steroid (triamcinolone acetonide) into the stiff shoulder joint can help improve range of motion and reduce pain in people with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis).
Yinchuan, NingxiaAges 18–75 - NCT06571981Recruiting
Comparing regular and portable ultrasounds for viral hepatitis
This study compares a regular ultrasound done in the hospital with a small, portable ultrasound device for people with viral hepatitis. The goal is to see if the portable device works as well as the standard machine, which could make ultrasounds easier to get.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT06600035Recruiting
Stomach ultrasound before surgery for diabetics
This study uses an ultrasound to check if your stomach empties normally before elective surgery. It is designed for people with diabetes to help make surgery safer.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06610877Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for essential tremor
This trial tests if a focused ultrasound treatment can help people with essential tremor that hasn't improved with medication. It is designed for those already scheduled for a similar procedure using MRI guidance.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06643325Recruiting
Gastric emptying after traumatic injuries
This study looks at how quickly the stomach empties after a traumatic injury. It may help doctors understand digestion in injured patients.
WinterthurAges 18 years+ - NCT06650137Recruiting
Using Diaphragm Ultrasound to Find the Cause of Breathing Trouble
This study tests if ultrasound of your diaphragm (the muscle that helps you breathe) can help doctors find the cause of sudden breathing trouble. It may help patients who come to the emergency room with fast or difficult breathing and low oxygen levels.
Nîmes, GardAges 18 years+ - NCT06662461Recruiting
Nerve block for stubborn migraines: Stellate vs occipital
This trial tests which nerve block works better for stubborn migraines: one on the stellate ganglion (a cluster of nerves in the neck) or the greater occipital nerve (at the back of the head). They will also check how these blocks affect a chemical linked to migraine pain. If you have chronic migraines that haven't improved with multiple treatments, you may be eligible.
CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT06752252Recruiting
