Turkish version of hand burn recovery questionnaire
This study is testing a Turkish version of a questionnaire that measures how people recover from hand burns. It helps doctors understand your recovery and improve care for other burn survivors.
Konya, MeramAges 18 years+ - NCT07329595Recruiting
Tracking gut bacteria changes after severe burns
This study looks at how severe burns change the bacteria in your gut and your immune system. It will track these changes to better understand recovery and find new ways to help healing.

Trauma and substance use in penetrating abdominal injury
This study looks at alcohol, drug use, and painkiller use in people with a penetrating abdominal injury (like a stab or gunshot wound to the belly). It aims to understand how these substances affect patient outcomes.
Cali, Valle del Cauca DepartmentAges 15 years+ - NCT07332299Recruiting
Brain stimulation and training for seniors with TBI
This study tests if a wearable brain stimulation device (tDCS) combined with computer-based training can improve attention and concentration in older veterans with a history of mild brain injury. It involves several sessions from home using a headset and computer.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 65 years+ - NCT07333092Recruiting
Balance exercises after ACL surgery
This trial tests whether special balance and movement exercises (proprioceptive exercises) help people recover better after ACL knee surgery. You would start these exercises during the second week of your rehab program.
SanliurfaAges 20–40 - NCT07334418Recruiting
General anesthesia for trauma prevention during C-section
This study tests if giving general anesthesia early during a C-section can reduce traumatic experiences for women who feel severe pain despite standard pain relief options.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07334977RecruitingPhase 2
Brain and spinal cord stimulation after stroke or injury
This trial tests whether stimulating the brain and spinal cord together can help people recovering from stroke or spinal cord injury. It also includes a healthy control group for comparison.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT07335133Recruiting
Recovery from ankle arthroscopy surgery
This trial studies how patients recover after ankle arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery to look inside the ankle joint). It may help doctors learn what to expect during recovery.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT07337616Recruiting
Wound dressing study for burn patients
This study tests a new wound dressing called Field Shield for people with burn injuries. It compares the new dressing to standard care. The goal is to see if it helps burns heal better.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18–75 - NCT07339644Recruiting
Lung-Sparing Radiation Guided by Breathing Scans
This study tests a new way to plan radiation for lung tumors. It uses a breathing-guided scan to map healthy and unhealthy parts of the lungs, so radiation can avoid working lung tissue. The goal is to see if this approach spares more healthy lung while still treating the cancer.
ChongqingAges 18–85 - NCT07341074Recruiting
Early help for adults with mild traumatic brain injury
This study tests if offering early support soon after a mild head injury can help reduce ongoing symptoms. If you've recently had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion) and are still having trouble, this program might help you recover better.
GroningenAges 18–70 - NCT07342426RecruitingPhase 4
Laser therapy for tennis elbow
This trial tests high and low dose laser therapy for people with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) that started less than three months ago. It aims to see if laser treatment can reduce pain and improve healing.
Kaohsiung CityAges 18 years+ - NCT07343583Recruiting
Nerve stimulation for bladder control after spinal cord injury
This study tests if stimulating nerves in the lower back or ankle can help improve bladder function in people who have a recent spinal cord injury above the T11 vertebra (mid-back). It aims to find a new way to manage bladder problems without medication.
Ankara, ÇankayaAges 18–65 - NCT07345481Recruiting
Learning new connections in brain injury
This study tests whether people with an acquired brain injury can learn new connections between symbols and words using a computer-based learning method. The goal is to see if this approach can help with cognitive rehabilitation.
Arnhem, GelderlandAges 18–75 - NCT05131672Recruiting
Casting vs surgery for elbow bone fractures in children
This study compares two treatments—casting or an operation—for a specific elbow fracture in children. It aims to see which approach works best for healing and recovery after a recent fracture.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 7–17 - NCT06452186Recruiting
Study of a new leg prosthetic controller for improved balance
This study tests a new prosthetic leg controller that helps people with below-knee amputations walk more steadily and with better balance. You may be eligible if you have used a prosthetic leg for at least a year and are comfortable walking in the community.
Raleigh, North CarolinaAges 18–99 - NCT05131685Recruiting
Child wrist fracture study comparing treatment for certain breaks
This study looks at treatment for children’s wrist (distal radius) fractures that are very displaced but not involving the growth plate. It may help doctors find the best way to reset and stabilize the bone when the fracture is recent.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 4–10 - NCT06841198Recruiting
Heart and blood vessel health after spinal cord injury
This study looks at how the heart and blood vessels change in the first year after a spinal cord injury. It also tests if electrical stimulation can help improve low blood pressure, which is common after injury.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT00870064Recruiting
Study of treating small open bone breaks in children
This study looks at how to treat certain small open fractures (where a bone has broken through the skin) in children using non-surgical realignment when possible. It may help doctors confirm the best early treatment approach for less severe injuries.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 3–14 - NCT02922894RecruitingPhase 4
Testing sleep apnea care in people with spinal cord injury
This study looks at treatment for sleep apnea (breathing pauses during sleep) in adults with a spinal cord injury. If you qualify, the trial team may help manage sleep-related breathing problems and track how well the treatment works.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18–89 - NCT07483658Recruiting
Salvage pelvic radiotherapy: 20 vs 25 sessions for recurring prostate cancer
This trial compares two schedules of pelvic radiotherapy for men whose prostate cancer has returned after surgery. Both schedules aim to control the cancer with fewer visits for one of them.
Gatineau, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06983184Enrolling by invitation
Period-synced training for teenage athletes

Frisco, TexasAges 13–19 - NCT07347873Recruiting
Testing accuracy of exams for tennis elbow
This study compares several simple physical exams and an ultrasound test to see how well they can diagnose a common elbow problem called lateral elbow tendinopathy (tennis elbow). If you have pain on the outside of your elbow, this research might help confirm what is causing it.
Istanbul, MaltepeAges 18–60 - NCT07348016Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma and steroid injection for shoulder surgery
