Knee tunnel placement study for ACL repair outcomes
This study looks at where the bone tunnel is placed during ACL reconstruction surgery and whether that placement affects how well the knee heals and functions after surgery. It could help doctors improve surgery techniques for better recovery.
SakaryaAges 18–50 - NCT07876466Recruiting
Zirconia teeth replacement study
This study looks at how well a full set of replacement teeth made of a strong material called zirconia (a type of ceramic) work when placed on dental implants in the mouth. It aims to understand the long-term success and behavior of these restorations after at least a year.
Lisbon, Lisbon DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT07876232Recruiting
Surgery options for repeat shoulder dislocations
This study compares different surgical techniques to fix a shoulder that keeps dislocating forward. It aims to find the best approach to stabilize the joint and reduce future dislocations.
RigaAges 18–50 - NCT07875556Recruiting
Shoulder repair with tissue patch for large rotator cuff tears
This trial tests a new way to repair large rotator cuff tears using a tissue patch to help the tendon heal. It might offer a better option for people whose tears are hard to fix with standard surgery.
Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi MinhAges 40–75 - NCT06463886Recruiting
HIV medication support for Black women who have experienced trauma
This study tests a program to help Black women living with HIV take their HIV medication regularly, especially if they have had trouble staying on treatment or missed doctor visits. The program aims to empower women and improve their health.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03545477Recruiting
Curved walking training for stroke, Parkinson's and hip fracture recovery
This study tests whether practicing walking in curved paths can help people recovering from a stroke, Parkinson's disease, or a recent hip fracture improve their balance and mobility. If you have one of these conditions and are in a rehabilitation program, this training might make everyday walking easier.
Lissone, Monza E BrianzaAges 18–90 - NCT07876882Recruiting
Comparing two bone scans for osteoporosis diagnosis
This study compares a newer, no-radiation bone scan (REMS) with the standard DXA scan to see if it's just as good at diagnosing osteoporosis and predicting fractures. If you're already getting a DXA scan, you might be able to participate and help improve bone health testing.
Easton, MarylandAges 30–90 - NCT07678372Recruiting
Ozoaqua for abdominal scar healing after surgery
This trial tests whether Ozoaqua, a special treatment, helps heal abdominal scars better than standard care after open surgery. It may reduce scarring and improve how the scar looks and feels.
Pamplona, NavarreAges 18 years+ - NCT07015541Recruiting
Quadriceps strengthening after ACL reconstruction
This trial is for people who have had ACL surgery on one knee only (not both knees) and want to strengthen their quadriceps. It tests if adding special muscle stimulation or blood flow restriction training helps recovery.
Sunnyvale, CaliforniaAges 13–17 - NCT04209504Recruiting
Nerve block study for one-sided breathing muscle weakness after shoulder surgery
This trial tests whether a longer-lasting nerve block during shoulder surgery can better manage pain and affect one-sided diaphragm (breathing muscle) weakness. It may help people having planned (first-time) shoulder surgery who are able to follow study pain-checks.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT05233111Enrolling by invitation
Exposure therapy to reduce PTSD after spinal cord injury
This trial compares a specific type of talk therapy (brief prolonged exposure) versus standard care to reduce post-traumatic stress symptoms after a spinal cord injury. If you qualify, you may get extra support targeted at PTSD symptoms during inpatient rehab.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07038889Recruiting
Virtual reality walking rehab for brain injury
This study tests whether using virtual reality during walking exercises can help people with traumatic brain injury improve their walking. It may be a more engaging way to do physical therapy.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06010251Recruiting
Body awareness therapy for spinal cord injury pain
This trial tests a multisensory approach to help people with spinal cord injury better perceive their body and reduce long-term nerve pain. It combines body awareness exercises with sensory feedback to see if it can ease pain and improve quality of life.
Miami, FloridaAges 18–70 - NCT06096259RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing knee arthritis after ACL injury
This trial tests whether metformin, a common diabetes medicine, can prevent arthritis after an ACL injury. If you are planning to have ACL surgery soon, you may be able to join.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–45 - NCT07101991Recruiting
Targeted fluid management during brain surgery
This study tests whether using a non-invasive monitor to guide fluid and medication during planned brain surgery helps keep your blood pressure and heart rate stable. It may help reduce complications during and after surgery.
BrnoAges 18 years+ - NCT03249519Recruiting
Radiation plus heat for advanced cervical cancer
This trial studies whether adding controlled heat (“hyperthermia”) to radiation therapy (or radiation with chemotherapy) can improve outcomes in advanced cervical cancer. It focuses on people who can safely receive intensive pelvic radiation and heat treatment.
ErlangenAges 18 years+ - NCT02692092Recruiting
Records for your hip or knee replacement care
This registry collects information about people who have a hip or knee replacement at a HealthEast hospital. It helps researchers and the hospital system understand outcomes and improve care.
Saint Paul, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03238378Recruiting
Radiation boost plus warming for recurrent head and neck tumors
This trial tests a “salvage” treatment that combines targeted radiation (brachytherapy) with controlled body warming (hyperthermia) for head and neck cancer that has come back. It may help by better shrinking tumors while fitting the treatment to the tumor’s exact location.
ErlangenAges 18 years+ - NCT03782038Recruiting
Micro-coring device study for non-keloid scar improvement
This trial tests whether a tiny “micro-coring” device can improve the look of scars. It enrolls adults with certain skin types who have not recently treated the scar and who can safely use numbing medicine used in the procedure.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04187261Recruiting
Audit of surgical care for hip fractures
This trial is an audit, meaning researchers review existing hospital records to understand what happens after hip fractures are treated with surgery. It may help improve how hip fracture care is documented and delivered at their hospital.
Karachi, SindhAges 1–100 - NCT03643718Recruiting
Emergency surgery and trauma patient registry online
This trial is a web-based registry that collects information about people who need emergency surgical or non-surgical treatment for sudden (acute) problems. Your information can help doctors better understand and improve emergency care and decision-making.
PisaAges Any age - NCT02863250Recruiting
Blood transfusion registry for people needing frequent transfusions
This registry collects information from adults who receive frequent red blood cell transfusions. It may help clinicians understand transfusion needs and improve future care.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT02511158Recruiting
Knee ligament surgery study after ACL reconstruction

ParisAges 7 years+ - NCT02906865Recruiting
Study of surgery outcomes for hamstring rupture
This study follows people who had a hamstring muscle tear near the hip that was repaired with surgery. It aims to better understand recovery after surgery in cases confirmed by MRI.
