- NCT01964859RecruitingPhase 2
Testing your own skin cells to heal skin
This study checks whether a treatment using your own skin graft material is safe and feasible. It aims to see if using a small sample from your skin and making an “autologous” skin graft can be done safely and with good follow-through.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT01731444RecruitingPhase 1
Phenylephrine gel to reduce bleeding in burn skin surgery
This early-stage study tests a medication (phenylephrine) used during burn wound surgery to help control bleeding. If it works, it may make skin grafting safer and reduce how much bleeding surgeons see.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18–75 - NCT01619917Recruiting
Laser treatment for burn scars on skin recovering
This trial looks at whether a type of “fractional” laser can improve burn scars. It focuses on scars that are healing well past the initial recovery phase and compares laser therapy as a scar-management option.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 18–60 - NCT01958086Recruiting
Visuomotor prosthetic for people with paralysis
This trial tests a prosthetic device that helps with movement by using brain-and-hand body signals to guide action. You may be able to join if you have paralysis from an injury or illness and can safely have surgery and frequent study visits.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 22–65 - NCT01758653Enrolling by invitation
Store blood and DNA from people with carbon monoxide poisoning
This study takes and stores blood (and DNA) from people who were sick from carbon monoxide exposure. It’s meant to help researchers better understand the condition and what happens in the body after exposure.
Murray, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT01293214Recruiting
Transplanting new tissue for multiple amputated limbs
This trial studies whether a transplant of tissue and blood vessels can improve function after limb amputations when prosthetic devices have not worked. It requires long-term medicines to prevent rejection, close follow-up, and intensive rehabilitation.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–60 - NCT01974362Recruiting
Full-mouth zirconia implant restoration and healing study
This trial looks at how well a zirconia (ceramic) full set of dental implants and crowns heals over time. It may help people who need a complete upper and/or lower replacement to understand expected healing and fit.
Lisbon, Lisbon DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT01459107RecruitingPhase 2
Upper arm transplant study using immune treatment
This trial tests replacing a missing or non-working lower arm/hand with a donated upper limb (transplant). It also uses a special immune treatment plan and bone marrow infusion to help the body accept the new limb, aiming to improve hand function and quality of life.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–69 - NCT01894802Recruiting
Brain recording and stimulation to help control a computer
This study tests a brain-machine interface that records brain activity and uses stimulation to help people with severe hand/arm movement loss communicate or control tasks using a computer. It may help restore some control and reduce dependence on hands that cannot be used normally.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 22–70 - NCT01889381RecruitingPhase 2
Transplanting facial and jaw bone using donor tissue
This trial studies a special surgery to replace part of the skull, face, and jaw using donor tissue. It also tests medicines to help your body accept the transplant, aiming to restore function and appearance after serious injury.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT00411060Recruiting
Orthopaedic data bank study for acute and chronic problems
This study collects information about orthopedic (bone, joint, muscle) problems from people seen in the orthopaedics clinic. It may help improve future care by organizing real-world clinical data.
Gainesville, FloridaAges Any age - NCT00404898Recruiting
Study registry for World Trade Center health impacts
This trial is a research registry that enrolls people affected by the September 11, 2001 events who may need ongoing care. It helps researchers understand health impacts over time and supports continued treatment for eligible participants.
New York, New YorkAges Any age - 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 - NCT00912041Recruiting
Test of a brain-to-computer device for quadriplegia
This study tests whether a tiny brain computer interface can help people with quadriplegia (loss of movement in all four limbs) communicate or control technology. It’s mainly a feasibility study, meaning the goal is to see if the device can work safely and reliably in real life.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT00623389Recruiting
Testing a leg neuroprosthesis for walking and leg control
This trial tests an advanced device that helps control and use your legs and trunk muscles for movement. It may help people with certain types of paralysis or weakness to improve function, while closely monitoring safety and comfort.
Cleveland, OhioAges 21–75 - NCT00981396RecruitingEarly Phase 1
EFT therapy to help smokers who struggle to quit
This early-stage study tests Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), a gentle talking-and-tapping method, for people who feel very anxious about quitting and still have strong cravings. It may help improve confidence and reduce the emotional triggers that make quitting harder.
