Pig-based wound dressing study for skin graft donor sites
This study tests how well a pig-based covering dressing works on skin graft donor-site wounds (where skin is taken to make a graft). It may help support faster, safer healing after a split-thickness skin graft.
Manchester, EnglandAges 16 years+ - NCT06736860RecruitingPhase 4
Tranexamic acid for trauma bleeding with blood clot monitoring
This study tests whether a drug called tranexamic acid (TXA) can help control bleeding in trauma patients. It uses a special blood test (thromboelastography) to monitor how well your blood clots during treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07557875Recruiting
Laser Treatment for Tongue-Tie in Young Children
This study tests whether a special laser can safely and effectively treat tongue-tie (a condition where the tissue under the tongue is too tight) in children ages 3–6. The goal is to see if the laser helps the tongue move better and heals faster than other methods.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 3–6 - NCT07552766RecruitingPhase 4
Lidocaine infusion to reduce opioid use in arm fracture surgery
This study tests whether giving a pain-relieving medication called lidocaine through an IV during arm fracture surgery can reduce how much opioid pain medication (like morphine) children need after surgery. The goal is to help manage pain better while using fewer opioids.
Wilmington, DelawareAges 3–18 - NCT07553923Recruiting
High-intensity walking rehabilitation for spinal cord injury
This study tests whether intensive walking training helps people with incomplete spinal cord injuries regain walking ability. You would work with physical therapists on challenging walking exercises to improve strength and independence.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07553273Recruiting
Vibration to reduce pain from steroid hand and arm injections
This study tests whether applying gentle vibration during steroid injections into the hands, wrists, or elbows can reduce injection pain. If vibration works, it could make these commonly prescribed treatments more comfortable for patients.
Galveston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07556991RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Infection's Role in Chronic Brain Bleeding
This study investigates whether infection contributes to chronic subdural hematoma, a condition where blood collects between the brain and skull. Researchers will study patients undergoing surgery to understand infection's involvement and potentially improve treatment.
RostockAges 18 years+ - NCT07559344Recruiting
Hot Baths and Muscle Recovery in Young Athletes
This study tests whether taking hot baths before or after intense exercise helps young track-and-field athletes recover better and triggers natural protective proteins in their muscles. Researchers will measure muscle strength and a cellular protein called HSP70 to see if heat helps the body bounce back from hard workouts.
AmiensAges 19–25 - NCT07553000Recruiting
Splinting for Wrist Fractures Study
This study tests how splinting helps people with suspected broken wrists (fractures of the radius bone at the wrist). You'll be included if you have moderate to severe wrist pain and imaging shows a fracture.
MalmöAges 18 years+ - NCT07554118Recruiting
Balance and Walking Study for Older Adults
This research study examines how older adults maintain balance and walk. Researchers want to understand what helps people stay steady on their feet as they age, which could lead to better ways to prevent falls.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 65–80 - NCT07553221Recruiting
Treatment study for complex ankle fractures with cartilage damage
This research studies how to treat severe ankle fractures (called pilon fractures) that damage the joint surface. Researchers will use external fixation (a temporary metal frame outside the skin) to stabilize your ankle while they plan surgery to repair the cartilage damage.
Columbia, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07556263Recruiting
Hip Fracture Recovery: Mobility and Daily Life Outcomes
This study looks at how well people recover their ability to move and do everyday activities after a hip fracture treated at OLVG hospital. Researchers will review your medical records and recovery progress to understand what helps people regain independence.
AmsterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT07558564Recruiting
Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment for Chronic Tendon Pain
This trial tests whether an injection of concentrated platelets from your own blood can help heal chronic tendon injuries that haven't improved with other treatments. Platelets contain natural healing factors that may reduce pain and improve function.
A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT07558590Recruiting
Shoulder Replacement System Recovery and Function Study
This study follows patients who have received a new shoulder replacement device to see how well it works and how patients recover. Researchers will collect information about your shoulder function and satisfaction over time.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07548437Enrolling by invitation
Safety Video Program for Young Teens in High-Risk Communities
This study tests a video program designed to help young people ages 11–15 stay safe from community violence. The program is offered in neighborhoods where gun violence is a concern, and researchers want to see if it helps kids understand safety better.
Galveston, TexasAges 11–15 - NCT07545785Recruiting
Electroacupuncture and cupping for shoulder tendon pain
This trial tests whether electroacupuncture (needles with gentle electrical stimulation) and cupping (suction therapy) can reduce shoulder pain from tendon inflammation. You'll receive these traditional treatments if your shoulder pain is moderate and caused by tendon injury rather than other conditions.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–70 - NCT07548567Recruiting
Nerve Block to Reduce Pain During Below-Knee Fracture Surgery
This study tests a nerve-blocking injection (numbing medicine around the femoral artery nerve in your groin area) to help reduce pain and blood pressure changes during below-knee fracture surgery when a tourniquet (pressure cuff) is used. The goal is to see if this approach makes surgery more comfortable and safer.
AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT07549893Recruiting
Coagulation of Middle Meningeal Artery During Brain Bleed Surgery
This trial tests a new technique during surgery for chronic subdural haematoma (bleeding between the brain and skull) where doctors use heat or special tools to seal a blood vessel (the middle meningeal artery) to help prevent the bleed from returning. The goal is to see if this addition to standard surgery is safe and feasible.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07544602Enrolling by invitation
Music therapy for coma after head injury
This trial tests whether listening to music can help people who are in a coma after a serious head injury recover. It may help improve brain function and recovery during their stay in intensive care.
Youngstown, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07550543Recruiting
PEMF Therapy for Chronic Shoulder Pain
This study tests whether pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy—a treatment using magnetic pulses—can reduce chronic shoulder pain and improve how well your shoulder works. You would receive this therapy at a rehabilitation center over several weeks.
Constanța, TechirghiolAges 18–70 - NCT07546903Recruiting
Pain relief methods for hip fracture surgery
This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) used to reduce pain after hip fracture surgery. Researchers want to see which method works better to help patients recover with less pain.
ÇorumAges 18 years+ - NCT07549529Recruiting
Balance and Movement Problems After Concussion
This study looks at why some people have trouble with balance and movement after a concussion (mild traumatic brain injury). Researchers will test your balance and movement to understand these problems better and help improve how doctors treat them.
Portland, OregonAges 18–60 - NCT07549997RecruitingPhase 1
Social Participation Recovery Program After Brain Injury
This study tests whether a group program can help people who've had a traumatic brain injury (TBI) get back to social activities they enjoyed before their injury. You'll work with others and learn strategies to re-engage with friends, family, and community.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07548580Recruiting
Early Movement Therapy for Brain Injury in Hospital ICU
This study looks at how gentle, early physical movement during ICU care affects recovery in patients with serious brain injuries like stroke or head trauma. Researchers will track how patients respond to a structured movement program while they're on a breathing machine.
