Brain stimulation for arm paralysis after spinal cord injury
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation method (NIBS) to help people with recent spinal cord injuries regain arm and hand function. It is designed for patients who have some paralysis in their arms but still have some movement or sensation below their injury level.

Do ACL tears cause weakness in the soleus muscle?
This study looks at whether people with ACL tears have weakness in a specific calf muscle called the soleus. If you have an ACL tear, you will do strength tests to compare with healthy individuals.
LiverpoolAges 18–55 - NCT06249126Recruiting
Heel bone fusion for severe fractures
This trial tests whether fusing the joint just below the ankle (subtalar joint) during heel bone fracture repair helps people with severe fractures heal better. You may qualify if you have a specific type of broken heel bone and can return for follow-up visits for one year.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04408885Recruiting
Rehab program for a torn ACL ligament
This study looks at a rehabilitation-focused treatment plan after an ACL (an important knee ligament) tear. It may help you by testing the best rehab approach for improving knee function and stability.
Aarhus NAges 18–50 - NCT06218238Recruiting
Testing the power knee for above-knee amputees
This study tests a powered knee called the Ossur Power Knee to see how it affects walking for people who have had an above-the-knee amputation. It might help you walk more smoothly and with less effort.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 45–75 - NCT04976335Recruiting
Tests a gel that helps wrist tendon movement after fracture repair
This study looks at whether a bio-dissolving (self-absorbing) gel improves how well the wrist flexor tendons glide after surgery for a distal radius fracture. You may be randomly assigned to use the gel or not, and the researchers will measure wrist tendon and clinical outcomes to see if it helps.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06210711Recruiting
Prolonged exposure therapy for trauma injury patients
This study tests if prolonged exposure therapy can help people who were injured in a trauma and admitted to a Level I trauma center. It aims to reduce the psychological impact of the traumatic event, such as PTSD symptoms.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–75 - NCT06216600Recruiting
Women's strength and resilience program for HIV and substance use
This study tests a program for women living with HIV who also struggle with substance use or heavy drinking. It combines exercise and support to help build strength and resilience. You may qualify if you've missed some HIV medications, have a detectable viral load, and have experienced violence.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06220448Recruiting
Blunt adrenal injury study for trauma patients
This study looks at how adrenal gland injuries from blunt force trauma (like a car crash or fall) affect people. You may qualify if you had a blunt injury to your chest or belly area.
Miano, LombardyAges 16–99 - NCT06214208Recruiting
Spinal stimulation frequencies for spasticity after spinal cord injury
This study tests how different frequencies of spinal stimulation affect spasticity, movement, and pain after a spinal cord injury. It may help if you have leg spasticity and no implanted devices.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 16 years+ - NCT06211413Enrolling by invitation
Tracking heart issues in CLL patients on BTK inhibitors
This study watches for high blood pressure and irregular heartbeats in people with CLL who are starting a type of targeted therapy called a BTK inhibitor (acalabrutinib or zanubrutinib). Researchers will use a smartwatch and blood pressure cuff to monitor your heart health at home.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06207591Recruiting
Brain implant study for locked-in communication
This study tests a new brain implant (CortiCom) that may help people who are locked-in or nearly locked-in communicate again. It involves surgery to place the device in the brain and requires a caregiver and commitment to follow-up visits.
UtrechtAges 18–70 - NCT06220032RecruitingPhase 3
Preventing heart damage from chemotherapy in lymphoma
This trial tests if the drug dexrazoxane can protect the heart during chemotherapy for a type of lymphoma called DLBCL. It may be an option for patients starting a standard treatment regimen known as R-CHOP.
's-HertogenboschAges 18 years+ - NCT06208813Recruiting
Creatine for Concussion Recovery in Young Adults
This study tests whether taking creatine (a natural muscle supplement) can help young adults recover faster after a concussion. The trial starts very soon after injury, within the first 3 days.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18–35 - NCT06225245Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for arm recovery
This study tests whether a device placed on the spinal cord (called an epidural stimulator) can help improve arm and hand function in people with chronic spinal cord injuries. The goal is to boost nerve activity and make rehabilitation more effective.
Houston, TexasAges 22–65 - NCT06222450Recruiting
Vestibular rehab app for dizziness after mild brain injury
This study tests a smartphone app with exercises to help improve balance and dizziness in people who have had a mild traumatic brain injury. You may be eligible if you are still experiencing dizziness or balance problems.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06208709Recruiting
Carpal tunnel treatment for right hand without surgery
This study tests a new way to treat carpal tunnel syndrome in the right hand without surgery. It may help people with mild to moderate symptoms who have not had recent injections or other treatments.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06211491Recruiting
Bladder filling speed and autonomic dysreflexia in spinal cord injury
This trial compares how fast the bladder is filled during a urodynamic test and how that affects autonomic dysreflexia (a sudden rise in blood pressure) in people with chronic spinal cord injury. It aims to find safer testing methods.
Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-doAges Any age - NCT06213012Recruiting
Spinal stimulation and rehabilitation for walking recovery after spinal cord injury
This study tests whether non-invasive electrical stimulation of the spinal cord, combined with physical therapy, can improve your ability to stand and walk after a spinal cord injury. It explores how your brain and spinal cord can adapt and rebuild connections to help you move better.

Microbubble treatment for certain burn and wound types
This early-stage study tests micro/nanobubbles placed on or used for certain types of difficult wounds, including burns and some pressure or diabetic foot ulcers, especially when there has been tissue injury from radiation. It may help wounds heal faster or more effectively, but it is still being studied in early phases.

ACL repair: quadriceps vs patellar tendon graft
This trial compares two ways to rebuild a torn ACL using either a piece of your quadriceps tendon (with a small bone piece) or a piece of your patellar tendon (with bone). The goal is to find which graft works best for long-term stability and recovery.
