CPM therapy vs bone overgrowth in hip or knee
This study compares continuous passive motion (a machine that gently moves a joint without you moving it) versus the body’s tendency to form extra bone called heterotopic ossification. It aims to see whether CPM can affect how and how much bone overgrowth develops after neurologic injuries like stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury.

Numbing medication for shoulder surgery and breathing
This trial compares two types of numbing medications (liposomal bupivacaine and standard bupivacaine) given as a nerve block for shoulder surgery. Researchers want to see which one works better for pain relief and causes fewer problems with your breathing afterward.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–80 - NCT07591207Recruiting
Pain relief patch after laparoscopic abdominal surgery
This trial tests whether a pain-relief patch (loxoprofen) works well and safely to reduce pain after common laparoscopic surgeries like gallbladder, appendix, or hernia repair. If it works, it could offer patients a non-invasive way to manage post-surgery pain.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT07594821Recruiting
Two approaches to carpal tunnel surgery: comparing outcomes
This study compares two surgical approaches for carpal tunnel syndrome—one that releases pressure on the median nerve in one location versus releasing it in two locations. The goal is to find out which approach works better for relieving symptoms like numbness and tingling in the hand.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07587931Recruiting
Concentric vs Eccentric Exercise for Partial Rotator Cuff Tears
This study compares two types of shoulder exercises—one where you shorten the muscle and one where you lengthen it—to see which works better for partial tears of your rotator cuff (the muscles that stabilize your shoulder). The goal is to reduce pain and improve shoulder function.
Elâzığ, MErkezAges 18–65 - NCT07591311Recruiting
Pain block for hip surgery
This trial tests a new numbing injection near the hip to see if it improves pain control after hip surgery. It may help you require less pain medicine and feel more comfortable during recovery.
CrotoneAges Any age - NCT07588425Recruiting
Monitoring heart health during breast cancer treatment
This study watches how chemotherapy and HER2-targeted drugs affect your heart during early-stage breast cancer treatment. Researchers use heart scans to catch any changes early and understand how to protect heart health.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT06653816Recruiting
Comparing a new injury severity score to older methods
This study compares a new way of measuring how severe multiple injuries are (the EISS score) with two older methods (ISS and NISS). It aims to see if the EISS score is better at predicting outcomes for people with injuries in more than one body area.
AsyutAges 18–80 - NCT05965947Recruiting
Telehealth nutrition coaching for adults after brain injury
This study tests whether regular, online (Zoom) nutrition sessions can help adults living with a brain injury make healthier food choices from home. It’s designed for people who can join sessions by internet and participate in decision-making.
Tuscaloosa, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03160131Recruiting
Rehab program to improve vision after brain injury
This study looks at rehabilitation to improve vision after a brain injury. It may help people with significant vision problems regain everyday visual function.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges 14 years+ - NCT04770116Recruiting
Auditory sound training after concussion in children
This study tests whether special sound stimulation (using “slow wave” patterns) after a concussion can improve recovery. It may help children’s brain healing, and some participants also have an optional MRI scan to look for changes.
ZurichAges 6–18 - NCT05684042Recruiting
Help us record and study distal wrist fracture surgeries
This registry collects information and X-ray images from people who had surgery for a distal radius (wrist) fracture. It helps researchers improve fracture care by using real-world treatment and outcome data.
BaselAges 16 years+ - NCT06246669Recruiting
Exercise and fear after concussion in college athletes
This study looks at whether prescribed exercise can help college athletes feel less afraid of pain after a concussion. It aims to see if exercise helps them recover better.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18–25 - NCT07582510Recruiting
Telehealth vs. In-Person Physical Therapy for Golfer's Elbow
This study compares doing physical therapy exercises at home with video guidance versus attending in-person sessions for medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow). The goal is to see which approach helps reduce pain and improve function better.
Banhā, BenhaAges 18–60 - NCT07583498Recruiting
Treating Muscle Stiffness After Spinal Cord Injury With Oxygen Therapy
This study tests whether brief periods of low oxygen (called acute intermittent hypoxia) can reduce muscle stiffness and tightness that develops after a spinal cord injury. Researchers believe this approach may help improve arm and hand function.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07583836Recruiting
Early vs. delayed surgery for spinal cord injury recovery
This trial compares whether having surgery sooner or waiting longer after a spinal cord injury helps patients recover better. Researchers will track how well patients regain movement and function over time.
RawalpindiAges 18–60 - NCT07578935Recruiting
Stability and Jump Training After ACL Surgery
This study compares two types of exercise programs for people who had ACL (knee ligament) reconstruction surgery 1-3 years ago. The goal is to see which training approach—focusing on balance and stability or on jumping and power—helps restore better knee function and strength.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–40 - NCT07577362Recruiting

Portable MRI for children with oxygen-related brain injury
This study tests whether a small, portable MRI scanner can safely take pictures of the brain in seriously ill children who may have brain injury from lack of oxygen. It could help doctors diagnose and treat these children faster, without moving them from the ICU.
Kansas City, MissouriAges Up to 17 years - NCT07578532Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation for Overactive Bladder After Spinal Cord Injury
This trial tests two non-surgical treatments—magnetic and electrical nerve stimulation applied to the skin over the sacrum (base of spine)—to help control bladder overactivity in people with spinal cord injury. The goal is to reduce involuntary bladder contractions and improve bladder control.
AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07577960Enrolling by invitation
