Lung Rehabilitation for Upper Arm Burn Recovery
This study tests whether specialized breathing exercises and chest therapy can improve lung function in people recovering from upper arm burns. It may help you breathe better and restore physical strength after a burn injury.

Robot-assisted walking therapy for burn and fracture recovery
This study tests whether a robotic device that helps you walk can improve movement and function after you've had a severe burn and broken bone in your leg. The robot guides your leg through walking motions while you're healing, and researchers want to see if it helps you regain strength and independence faster.
SeoulAges 18–70 - NCT07580157Enrolling by invitation

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 - NCT07584941Recruiting
Upper-Limb Training Methods for Improving Tennis Serve Power
This study compares two different arm-training approaches—plyometric exercises (explosive, bouncy movements) versus traditional strength training—to see which better improves serve speed and arm power in competitive tennis players. If you're an experienced competitive player, this research could help you understand which training method works best for your serve.
IslamabadAges 18–30 - NCT06725836Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation study for spinal cord injury
This study tests how spinal cord stimulation affects brain activity in people with spinal cord injuries. It aims to understand the physiological effects using EEG (a brainwave test).
Vladivostok, Primorskiy (Maritime) KrayAges Any age - NCT04007380Recruiting
Sleep problems after spinal cord injury study
This study looks at how sleep-disordered breathing (breathing problems during sleep) affects mood, thinking, and behavior after a spinal cord injury. It may help researchers understand the impact of these sleep breathing issues and guide better support for people after injury.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04642807Recruiting
Treatment study for minor elbow fractures in young children
This trial looks at how to manage a specific, usually less severe elbow fracture in children ages 3–8. It may help doctors choose the best way to treat “Type 1” supracondylar fractures that are not displaced.
South BrisbaneAges 3–8 - NCT07570654RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing COMP360 for post-traumatic stress disorder
This study tests whether COMP360, a new treatment, can help people with PTSD feel better and cope with their symptoms. The research team will measure how safe it is and how well it works over time.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05165927Recruiting
Testing ways to rehabilitate the hip after arthroscopy
This study compares different rehabilitation methods after hip arthroscopy surgery for common causes of hip pain, like labral tears or femoroacetabular impingement. It may help find a recovery plan that works better and whether a smartphone blood-flow-restriction tool can be used safely.
Englewood, ColoradoAges 18–60 - NCT05859451Recruiting
Heated tobacco product study for surgically treated leg fractures
This study looks at whether a tobacco heating system (instead of cigarettes) affects how well a surgically repaired tibia or femur fracture heals. It mainly targets smokers with a certain smoking history who do not want to join free smoking-cessation seminars.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT05473689Recruiting
Sleep study in early spinal cord injury
This study looks at how sleep quality affects movement problems after a new spinal cord injury. Researchers hope to identify sleep targets that could improve motor function during recovery.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05642832Recruiting
Test a breathing-device method to reduce breathing effort
This trial checks whether a special “through-flow” system can safely reduce how hard your body has to breathe when you are on a breathing machine. It is mainly a feasibility study, meaning the focus is on whether the approach can be done safely and effectively.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07576192Recruiting
Massage treatments for heel pain in pregnant women
This study compares two hands-on massage techniques to relieve plantar fasciitis (heel pain) in pregnant women during the second trimester. The goal is to find the most effective, safe way to reduce pain without medication.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–40 - NCT07576829Recruiting
Wrist and shoulder exercises for tennis elbow pain
This study tests whether specific wrist and shoulder exercises can reduce pain and improve grip strength in people with tennis elbow (pain on the outside of the elbow). You'd do resistance exercises and stabilization work to see if they help you regain function.
SādiqābādAges 30–50 - NCT07576075Recruiting
Comparing two surgical treatments for wrist fractures
This study compares two ways to surgically treat a specific type of wrist fracture (where the break extends into the joint). Researchers will compare a metal plate attached to the inside of the wrist versus an external fixator (a metal frame attached to the outside) to see which helps patients recover better.
Bahawalpur, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–60 - NCT07569796Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation to Help Recover After ACL Surgery
This study tests whether stimulating your sciatic nerve (a major nerve in your leg) can help you recover better after ACL reconstruction surgery. The goal is to reduce pain and help you regain strength and movement.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–60 - NCT07574307Recruiting
Kinesio Tape for Meniscus Knee Injuries
This study tests whether special therapeutic tape (kinesiotape) can help reduce pain and improve function in people with meniscus injuries in the knee. The meniscus is a piece of cartilage that cushions your knee, and this trial sees if the tape can help your body heal without surgery.
BalıkesirAges 18–50 - NCT07572734Recruiting
Breathing exercises to help after a concussion in teens
This study tests whether special breathing exercises can help the nervous system recover better after a concussion. Kids ages 9–18 who come to the emergency room within 3 days of a concussion may qualify if they have symptoms like dizziness, nausea, tiredness, confusion, anxiety, or sleep problems.
Montreal, QuebecAges 9–18 - NCT07574736Recruiting
Finding the right way to place a heart ultrasound probe
